Spaghetti Napolitan 🍝 Part 4 of 5 of my #Yoshok Spaghetti Napolitan 🍝
Part 4 of 5 of my #Yoshoku dinner series 🇯🇵, sparked by the Japanese drama The Queen of Lunchtime Cuisine #ランチの女王 on Netflix .

Spaghetti Napolitan, a uniquely Japanese pasta using ketchup as its base sauce, popularised globally by the drama First Love, also on Netflix. One of my all-time comfort foods. The Italians may raise an eyebrow. But once you try it, you will understand. 😄

Butter Herb Rice 🍚 Part 3 of 5 of my #Yoshoku d Butter Herb Rice 🍚
Part 3 of 5 of my #Yoshoku dinner series 🇯🇵, sparked by the Japanese drama The Queen of Lunchtime Cuisine #ランチの女王 on Netflix 

Garlic, Italian herbs, and butter at two stages of cooking. Into the rice cooker. Finished with Calpis butter from Japan. Not essential but absolutely worth it.

Pairs beautifully with Japanese Hamburger Steak and Wabi-Sabi Chunky Brown Sauce - watch previous posts Parts 1 and 2.  Also great with poached salmon or North Indian dishes.

sllowcook’s take on French demi-glace. Not silky smooth, not classic beef stew. Somewhere beautifully in between.

Bacon, beef shin, red wine, vegetables, aromatics, and a touch of dark chocolate. Some blended, some left chunky.

Goes with Japanese Hamburger Steak (previous post) ☺️

Japanese Hamburger Steak Part 1 of 5 of my #Yoshok Japanese Hamburger Steak
Part 1 of 5 of my #Yoshoku dinner series 🇯🇵, sparked by the Japanese drama The Queen of Lunchtime Cuisine #ランチの女王 on Netflix.

Juicy, tender, and smothered in a rich savoury sauce. The centerpiece of my Yoshoku dinner at home.

A few things that make all the difference:
🍞 🥛 Panko and milk mixture to lock in moisture
👐Toss the patty to release air pockets
🔥 Torch for that smoky finish

Banana Apple Chocolate Bread Novice baker. No occ Banana Apple Chocolate Bread

Novice baker. No occasion. Just leftover bananas, apples, and a bit of flour.

I skipped the precision and went with gut feel and somehow, this banana chocolate bread turned out better than anything I’ve measured to the gram.

Browned butter for depth, Greek yoghurt for moisture, and barely any added sugar.  The fruit does all the work.

Sometimes the best bakes come from not overthinking it ☺️

Two overripe bananas, one apple, and zero plan. Ba Two overripe bananas, one apple, and zero plan. Banana apple Valrhona chocolate bread, entirely gut feel.

10g brown sugar. 1/4 tsp cinnamon sugar. That’s it. Banana and apple did the heavy lifting on sweetness, and kept it moist. Added browned burnt butter for a nutty, aromatic taste.

No recipe. No fuss. Just slow, instinctive baking, and somehow, it worked.

Proud doesn’t even cover it 🥹 Will shoot a video and share the recipe soon!

Leftover porridge sitting in the fridge. Two choic Leftover porridge sitting in the fridge. Two choices — eat it as it is, or turn it into a blackbox challenge. 

I chose the blackbox.

Fried porridge — smoky, fragrant, full of umami, and believed to have originated in Malaysia as a way to repurpose leftovers. Made with dried shrimp, aromatics, and a drizzle of sesame oil for that wok hei flavour at home.🤗

French Butter Cake 💛 I am not a natural baker. French Butter Cake 💛 I am not a natural baker. But after years of adjusting one recipe, I finally got it right.

Higher in almond flour, lower in sugar than most traditional recipes, just the way I like it. Dense, rich, and deeply buttery in every bite, without the guilt.

Not a food scientist but just someone who spent years tweaking until it tasted right.

Don’t bin it. Make butter 🧈 Three days past Don’t bin it. Make butter 🧈 

Three days past its date. Still sealed. So naturally — I made butter. 🧈

This small-batch fermented shio kombu butter started life as a forgotten tub of crème fraîche. Creamy, tangy, with a quiet hit of umami. 

200ml crème fraîche → ~100g butter. 30 minutes. Zero waste. All joy.
