teriyaki noodles oodles

Made too much teriyaki sauce for a meal?

No problem!

Use it for another teriyaki dish, like Teriyaki Chicken Noodles a few days after.

Slurp. Perfect for a bit of chilly weather.

Ingredients:

250 g chicken fillet

your pre-made teriyaki sauce

1 tsp cornstarch

knob of butter

2 tsp of olive oil

instant noodles, cooked and drained

1 bunch of bok choy, steamed/blast-boiled

3 cobs of corn, boiled

Steps:

1. Chicken fillet, butterfly* and marinate for 20 minutes.

2. Wipe off excess marinade with kitchen towel.

3. Add a tsp or so of cornstarch and massage gently on the chicken; shake off excess.

(*this helps keep the chicken tender inside but crisp outside).

4. Pan-fry in medium heat the chicken in a little butter and olive oil.

(*do not crowd the pan).

5. While cooking the whole batch of chicken, prepare the instant noodles (no seasoning), then drain.

6. Serve with some greens, like steamed / boiled baby bok choys and sweet corn to balance out the rich teriyaki flavor.

Enjoy!

how i met Nancy Drew

It was my sister who introduced me to Nancy Drew and her posse, Bess and George. Back in 4th grade, from a book she brought home from the school library. Erm, at least that's how I remember it. One Nancy Drew thing stands out in my memory though. The title "The Secret of the Old Clock". I vividly remember how the book looked, hard-bound, yellow spine, thick pages. The picture in the front cover showed Nancy, alone, crouched on the grass in the quiet woods at night, opening that old clock and looking so, well, so secretive about it! I recall how i felt then, seeing that picture, there is a thrill, like you were on the verge of discovery of a very precious secret! Thus, i got hooked in a much enjoyable way. I had graduated from fairy tales, fables and legends and had moved into mystery. It was one mystery solved after another! A different kind of adventure! How about you? Were you, or are you an avid Nancy Drew fan? What was your 1st mys...

Japanese potato salad, onegaishimasu!!!

Refreshing Crunch in every bite Nice touch of creamy from the potatoes and dressing Wonderful colors BEST of ALL: HEALTHY 🥗 Ingredients 3 potatoes, boiled & roughly mashed 1/2 cup of picnic ham, or 1/2 can of Spam, diced and fried. 1 cucumber, sliced 1 carrot, julienne 1/2 cup sweet corn, 1/2 cup picnic ham, diced &fried Japanese mayonnaise (*or any mayo) vinegar 1 boiled egg (optional) Salt and pepper to taste. 🥗 Steps Once the potatoes and ham are done, boiled-mashed, fried, respectively. mix altogether in a big bowl. Serve warm immediately, or it can also be served after being chilled for an hour (if in a rush 30 mins in the chiller will do.) The kids preferred without onions, so I always exclude it. Pair with some nicely fried food, like Japanese sausages, or chicken nuggets; world peace over dinner is hugely important. 💡 Inspired by: Ochikeron & Just One Cookbook
