Teriyaki chicken

Good teriyaki is when you get that sticky, brown and sweet meat. Nice fluffy rice to serve and some steamed greens to balance the sweet and savory. I like to add my teriyaki sauce slowly in the cooking process, so I don`t get to burn it and have it bitter. It takes a bit longer,…

Sweet and sour chicken

The Oh-so- good sweet and sour chicken. A dish that taste different every time you order it from the take away place. Its crunchy, fresh, tangy and just too good on a weekday evening. The original recipe I follow was from Marion`s kitchen – as she is probably my favourite Asian recipes cook. I changed…

Vegan Thai green curry

Thai green curry is our family favourite. I make it every now and then, when I want some spicy, yet comforting food. I never make the same recipe every time as I like to try different veggie combinations. Have a look of an old recipe hereĀ . This recipe is vegan, but it won`t disappoint the…

Kimchi fried rice and steak

If you heard if kimchi before, you are probably aware that it is super healthy and good for you. It is a Korean style, fermented cabbage with local spices. It is crunchy, tart and in most cases very spicy. I am sort of addicted to it for the past week. I really wanted to try…

Spicy wantons (shaped like gyoza)

At home we love a good Asian recipe. Wantons are one of my favourite things to eat. The juicy filling, the vinegary and spicy sauce to dip- just perfection. My wantons for this recipe are shaped like gyozas simply because I couldn`t find wanton wrappers anywhere. I decided to compromise on the shape, but don`t…

Marinated tuna poke bowl

The best thing about home made poke bowl is that you can top it with your favorite ingredients, add as much as you want fresh fish and of course get almost unlimited extra sauce! I love poke bowls because they are healthy, bright in color and super filling. I never tried making my own before,…
