This celery stir fry with pork is so quick, easy and versatile. I use this as a base recipe for my fridge clean-outs. I like it with celery the best with its crunchy sweetness. I often have celery in the fridge as it's cheaper for me to buy the entire head, instead of individual stalks. … Continue reading Celery Stir Fry with Pork
Egg tofu is really fiddly to cook with because it is just so soft. That's also what makes it so darn tasty. To 'harden' up the tofu, it is often fried to give it up a bit of a crust. It is then more easily added into dishes without fully disintegrating. This dish is a … Continue reading Fried egg tofu with pork
This fish taco recipe has a bit of a kick to it, just as a word of warning. You can reduce the cayenne pepper and hot sauce if you want something milder. The calorie count is on the generous side as it assumes you use up all the sauce and toppings, which you won't. Tacos … Continue reading Fish Taco Recipe
I don't cook much Indian food. When my middle brother used to live with me, he used to cook Indian curries all the time. I would smell all the spices in our little apartment for days after he cooked. I suppose that's why I never cooked it myself. It was always a thing that he … Continue reading Chicken tikka masala (590 calories per serve)

So I learnt something new today .... and I felt like such an idiot too after I found out. I felt so naive and ignorant. Anyway, so the new thing I learnt today … Continue reading Crispy skinned salmon with cannellini bean puree and broccolini, tomato and olives
I have deliberately not included a calorie count for this recipe because it got really depressing. It was also hard to calculate because although there are a lot of calories in the ingredients, you don't end up consuming it all so it was a bit pointless estimating. But let's just say it could be about … Continue reading Red Spice Road pork belly (adapted version)
I don't eat seafood often because I only have it if it is very, very fresh. That means I can't buy it overnight and cook it the next day because it would smell too fishy for me. I had to have it on the day that it was bought and that was why I only … Continue reading Honey and lemon glazed salmon fillets (671 calories per serve)
The Burmese biryani, known as "danbauk", is one of my favourite dishes when I go and visit Myanmar. It is different from other biryanis mainly because the chicken is cooked with the rice and it also features cashew nuts, raisins, and peas. It is a very fragrant dish and you can smell it long before … Continue reading Burmese Biryani (Danbauk) with Chicken
