A friend held a dumpling night a while back, everyone brings a filling and we make the dumplings on a long table ready for steaming. I never made dumpling before, but it was the perfect time to figure out how to this dumpling thing. I googled this dumpling recipe, and made a bit of modification… Continue reading Meatless Monday – Shitake mushroom, water chestnut and ginger dumpling

Meatless Monday : Pumpkin Soup
I am so over this winter, colder, wetter and longer than last year it just feels unnatural not to have the sun up in the sky for days on end. No idea how I managed to cope with this ungodly weather in the UK. Cold weather means soups and finally using the Food Processor I… Continue reading Meatless Monday : Pumpkin Soup
Meatless Monday: Spinach, red onion and feta tart
A crazy few weeks and being stranded in odd cities for work and leisure thanks to the ash cloud meant that I am a bit behind on posting (again1!). Nevertheless, here’s let’s hope we stay back on track with this simple, but delicious Spinach, red onion and feta tart. I found the recipe from one… Continue reading Meatless Monday: Spinach, red onion and feta tart
Meatless Monday: Shepherd’s Pie with Lentils
Winter is well and truly here. The weather has turned from the pretty leaves on the ground stage to doonas and incredibly unattractive long john stage. With that in mind, comfort food is the way to go and nothing spells out comfort food like Shepherd Pie. This particular recipe was taken from Taste.com.au with a few… Continue reading Meatless Monday: Shepherd’s Pie with Lentils
Meatless Monday – Okonomiyaki
I’ve been meaning to post on Mondays about Meatless Monday for a while, but so far a number of Mondays managed to slip by without a post. The Meatless Monday campaign was and still is a non for profit initiative of The Monday Campaigns, in association with the Johns Hopkins’ Bloomberg School of Public Health. The… Continue reading Meatless Monday – Okonomiyaki
MSG #19 – Sydney Portugal Community Club Restaurant Marrickville
After talking about doing a planned tour of Sydney’s Community Club, we finally went to our second community club as one of the Midweek Supper Group outings (the Japanese Club, being the first and I still need to blog it!). Yewenyi suggested the Portuguese Community Club in Marrickville and that fit the bill of being… Continue reading MSG #19 – Sydney Portugal Community Club Restaurant Marrickville
Blue berry pie and getting back into nature
So I have started doing a bit of baking again. The cold weather and the presence of someone with a very sweet tooth around means there is human garbage can I can feed my failed attempts to. I had my eye on Bill Granger’s recipe for Blue Berry Pie recipe from his “Feed Me Now”… Continue reading Blue berry pie and getting back into nature
Malaysian Kitchen Market – but don’t bring your vegetarian friends here
Nearly a quarter into the year and this year is crazily moving a little too quick for me yet again. I remembered thinking that I should post the photo above in early January and almost 2 months later here we are. So what’s new? Sydney seemed to have really picked up recently with the Malaysian… Continue reading Malaysian Kitchen Market – but don’t bring your vegetarian friends here
Bonus MSG Supper – Mado Cafe
It’s a Saturday evening and I am running late for the bonus supper in Auburn, cursing the western bound traffic on Parramatta Road all the way until I reached Mado Cafe. Brian, K and KL were already waiting as I rushed in apologising before sinking into one of the booths against the side of the… Continue reading Bonus MSG Supper – Mado Cafe
