Many moons ago, I used to work in a Japanese cafe that specialized in souffle pancakes, souffles, french toasts, and Yoshoku (a genre the fat kid in me LOVES). I’d be eyeing the hot side of the kitchen from my cool, relatively calmer…
These fatty hamachi collars take about 10 minutes to grill up in the airfryer (or oven), yet they look like sucha treat, making them the perfect thing to add to your dining table round-up if you’re pressed…
Duck confit sounds and looks fancy but it’s actually really simple and hands-off. You basically just salt the duck legs, leave it alone, stash them in the oven, leave it alone again. The most involved part of the recipe is if you choose to crisp up the duck skin stovetop…

For DTF-style fried rice, the key is seasoning the rice with some chicken powder or MSG so the dish gets savouriness while retaining its pale yellow colour at the same time. If you notice, they don’t go too crazy with their flavourings as…
Got this frozen kimchi fishcake udon kit from Redmart here, thinking it’d be a great idea to stave away the Midnight Munchies instead of ordering a potentially expensive and dismal Grabmeal yet again. Ah, my wasted money and stomach space. Took a gamble knowing …
