This is one of my favourite throw-together meals. Super easy and can be made mostly with what you have on hand. Make some extra rice for tonight’s meal and you will have this very flavourful and complete vegetarian dish for tomorrow… CRISPY GINGER GARLIC FRIED RICE 2 tbsp minced ginger 2 tbsp minced garlic 1/4 cup cooking oil (peanut or grapeseed is a good choice) […]
I first had these many years ago in Korea when visiting my daughter several years ago. She lived there for a couple of years teaching English to young South Korean students and on my arrival she introduced me to Pajeon. We enjoyed then plain (just the eggs mixture with green onions) and a seafood version – my favourite. SEAFOOD PAJEON with SPICY DIPPING SAUCE 2 […]

Love everything Asian but I try to avoid anything deep fried. And these easy and not deep-fried little bites of chicken were perfect all smothered in a sticky honey sesame sauce. STICKY HONEY SESAME CHICKEN 1 lb boneless chicken cut into 1″ pieces 2 garlic cloves, minced 2-3 tbsp oil (coconut oil works really well) toasted sesame seeds to garnish for batter 1/2 cup flour […]
Our lady R.E.D. is now out of the water for the season, so the process begins to remove all but the essentials and bring them back to our land home for the next few months… From now until next spring my teeny tiny galley will be stripped bare to just very basic items…. …something with which to cut the baguette, …something with which to open […]
I’m not sure if there is a specific recipe for a Buddha bowl but in our galley it lends itself to all sorts of options… completely vegan, vegetarian with or without tofu or with animal protein or fish added. The rice can be cooked in 15 minutes in a pressure cooker. The sweet potatoes can be grilled on skewers on your barbecue or as I […]
I make these tasty crunchy pancakes often… Vegetarian or with meat added they are an easy fix at home or on the water. (link to my usual recipe for Okonomiyaki ) When we provisioned last we bought a small package of broccoli slaw so instead of all that chopping and julienne-ing I am using them for a quick and easy supper tonight… EASY […]

I’m back to picking away at my 44 Classics… this time Tartare… Several years ago now, we were lucky to have the chance to spend a month in Paris. I ordered Boeuf Tartare no less six times And each time the seasonings and presentation were different… different but delicious… ….this, from a little bistro and the portions were monstrous. With this next one I’m going […]
