Very Simple Ramen

By: kit Published: Sep 3rd 2014

A simple lunch consisting of noodles which is heavy on the crab sticks as I need to get through it since the brand change was not popular in the household. Shiitake, soft boiled egg, shredded crab sticks and spring onion combined with a shoyu ginger broth with added chicken stock. Despite the reduced amount of noodles or […]

First Pasta of September

By: kit Published: Sep 1st 2014

First day and pasta of the month, though the days are getting shorter the BBQ will go on.. Because of excess sausages and beans for Sunday breakfast, it was a simple matter of cooking the tomatoes to bring out their extra sweetness. Lunch is stove-top grilled tomatoes, shredded bacon, sliced Italian sausage and runner beans […]

Eat Your Veggies!

Eat Your Veggies!
By: kit Published: Jan 7th 2013

I’m annoyed that though I don’t currently have a weight problem, it’s as if my personal concerns seem unfounded to other people. I have what I refer to as a “weight time-bomb”: if I’m not careful it’s in my genes that I can ‘blow up’. Presently I believe that all my sisters are now above […]

3 Shades of Pink

By: kit Published: Dec 12th 2012

With Yvan’s cooking motivation fired up we’ve been neglecting some potatoes that was destined for competition or venison stew (yes, still have a glut, but mostly it’s in the freezer) so over the weekend he eventually oven roasted the lot with rosemary and olive oil. As a carby side it really is at home with […]

Flag in-a-box: Mali

Flag in-a-box: Mali
By: kit Published: Sep 26th 2012

Still reeling from our beer festival debauchery both Yvan and I are feeling a little slower than usual. With beer *and* cider to order, an Android app, then setup nightmares and long serving hours the mess of a kitchen serves as an empty firkin storage before we head off to another beer festival in a […]

Simmered Kombu Rolls

Simmered Kombu Rolls
By: kit Published: Mar 25th 2011

Yvan has discovered that a south-east asian grocery near his work stocks umeboshi – and a very bright red (but tasty) variety at that! In addition: a good quality short grain rice. The previous evening there was a surplus of certain ingredients in the house and Yvan decided on cooking up something he hadn’t cooked […]

Healthy & Balanced

Healthy & Balanced
By: kit Published: Jan 5th 2011

I’ve run out of white rice for now, so I have gone the healthy route: brown. I don’t really like the texture of brown rice unless it was paired with something saucy or strong flavoured, but going a more healthy route might be best considering all the springrolls I go through! Lunch contents: half a […]

Basic Lumpia

Basic Lumpia
By: kit Published: Oct 1st 2010

Not feeling so inspired, I thought of clearing the freezer of more my lumpia. Also not feeling too healthy I tried mixing brown and white short grain rice. Instead of sauce, I intended the tomatoes to replace it, while the herbs and radish be eaten as a simple salad. Lunch contents: white and brown rice […]

Home-grown Tomato

Home-grown Tomato
By: kit Published: Aug 31st 2010

Our tomatoes are unhappy with the backyard: far too little sunlight reaches it shaded by neighbour’s fences or trees. The ones that have grown to maturity have been seeming to be the fodder for wildlife so we decided to pull up one of the plants and harvest what we could. Seeing there weren’t many ripe […]
