This may seem like a weird combo, but boy does it ever work and to be completely honest it happened by accident. I initially was looking to make this with haloumi cheese. It’s one of those cheeses that are sometimes easy to find and sometimes …
Tofu’s gotta bad rap I think. Often you think that tofu is bland, or tastes like nothing, or doesn’t add anything to the dish, and to those people I say GTFO. If you don’t like tofu maybe it wasn’t done properly? Give give soy a …
It’s no secret I’m obsessed with mushrooms. All of them. No mushroom is left unloved and I truly hope my mushroom love spreads far and wide to everyone else! That’s why I can’t wait to share with you these perfect smokey spicy enoki mushrooms. Enoki mushrooms are the kind of mushrooms you would typically find in ramen bowls or even inside some spring rolls. But I love them so much roasted to the extreme to where they become crispy and crunchy and almost burnt.
This recipe is pretty versatile in how far you want to take the cook based on what you’re using it for. If I’m having it as a snack I like to cook it a little further than you may think it needs to go, but if I’m using it in a rice dish (like this one here!) then I like to pull them a little sooner. It comes together in no time at all and I actually have used both my air fryer and oven for these guys so whichever you decide on using it’s up to you! I would suggest keeping an eye on them in the tail end of the cook because I do like them dark and crispy but not inedible.
Here we go!
This dish is one of those things I would always order at a restaurant because they were a special treat I’d never have at home or even think to make. Turns out they’re incredibly easy to achieve at home and they are very well worth …
Salads are the gift that keep on giving and they can easily go from meh to amazing with the right ingredients. One of my favourite things to have on a salad are of course croutons. Why? Because bread, crunch and an overall flavour bomb that …
Do you ever find you go through food moods? You’ll be making pasta all the time, or having soup a few nights a week? Or ramen often (I mean that’s a given these days for me). But, same, and that’s me with Brussels Sprouts right now. As you can see from my other recipes here. I also am a huge fan of using everything in your fridge and having as little food waste as possible so often my recipes reflect that. I’ll use leftovers, or try to use everything I have before I get more. I think everyone should get into this habit as well! Less waste is better for the environment and your wallet!
I love love love potatoes in more ways than one and my mom made these ‘smashed potatoes’ for me as they’re pretty much my favourite. As much as I love potatoes I wanted to try something a little lighter. I had this lightbulb moment and wondered if I could get the same or similar results with Brussels Sprouts and these did NOT disappoint! Super simple and the perfect side dish for any dinner. I think Sprouts get a bad rap because they were just boiled with salt, or allegedly had a different genetic DNA? But I digress. Please give these a try, they’re very easy to make and you won’t be able to stop!
Whoever said tofu isn’t good, or delicious simply didn’t make it right. It is a sleeper hit in a lot of dishes and can have a crazy amount of diversity in the way it’s prepared. My personal favourite is ‘crispy style’ for obvious reasons and …
