Tastes better than it looks, but i guess you have heard that all before.

Fresh hokkien noodles
Teriyaki sauce
Baby corn
asparagus
sesame oil

It's a simply stir fry, drizzle of oil, add sliced corn and asparagus. Once seared and started to soften, add the hokkien and an average drizzle of teriyaki sauce. 

When it all looks done dress with a tiny splash of sesame oil. ​

What to do with a few ingredients.
Ice Berg lettuce
Cucumbers
Red Chilli
Capsicum
Quinoa
and a fresh lime

the answer is the title.

The simplicity of this dish is perfect for me.
Pho based veggie soup, soft fresh udon noodles and bok choy that melts in my mouth.

All this topped with some sauteed fresh garlic. Delish noodles to slurp.

Roasted Cauliflower in the oven is a devine treat and so easy to make.
40-45 minute in the oven. You need to break it into small pieces just bigger than bite sized.
For the first 30 mins its that simple.

At 20 minutes out boil some pasta, spaghetti was our choice.
10 mins left to bake. bring the cauliflower out and add salt, pepper, garlic and rosemary and drizzle with virgin olive oil. Back in the oven for 10 minutes. 

5 mins til the bake is done, check the pasta is al dente, left the pasta out of the water and let drain, add salt pepper.

When the roasted cauliflower starts to golden and char, its done, pull it out cover the cauliflower with the pasta and drizzle with fresh lemon. Serve at the table from the roasting bowl.

This dish can also be boosted by a side of roasted tomatoes.

I've never connected to risotto.

The gluggy rice, usually too much moisture and little flavours to boot.

This was an experiment that turned out surprisingly well, and it was super easy. 

Boil barley for 10-15 mins add in steam veggies and saute mushrooms, spice to your taste.

In this is a combination of white pepper and himalayan salt. Simple yet hearty and delicious. and no gluggy rice.

Appreciating the simplest things in their purest form.

How many of us have done too much with the humble tomato.

Eating food as its meant to be.

Sometimes super tasty food looks less than appealing lol.
Take this delicious spicy and juicy green curry, with cauliflower.

How to - 6 easy steps.
1. Boil sweet potato noodles for 10-15 mins until supple.
while boiling create a the soup, in a wok.
2. Start with a dash or rice bran oil, chopped onions, dash of fresh garlic. as it rises to the heat boil some water, add some vege stock to the water, with spinach stems (not the leaf yet), add some soy dark or light depending your flavour palette both work.
3. Once the stems have softened we are going to blend the noodles with the soup. the key is the balance the cooking time so the noodles anf the stems are perfect at the same time.
4. When both perfect, drain the noodles. Grab your serving bowl, in the bottom of the serving bowl add a dash of sesame oil and some fresh chilli, add the noodles and let rest.

 
5. Turn up the heat in the soup and add the spinach or green leaves (what you choose). Once the leaves reduce pour/add the soup over the top of the noodles to about 75%.
​6. Garnish the top with fresh pan fried garlic, shallots and as much chilli as you can handle.
then dig in.
