Epi 5 Part 2: Snapper Thai Mango Salad
I love Asian food and spices and sometimes find clean eating and salads lacking in the flavours I am familiar with. So this dish, Snapper with Thai Mango Salad proves that we can straddle both the flavours and yet keep this meal sexy, fresh and low carbs. You can always alternate the use of palm sugar with honey or maple syrup or use less of the amount called for. However, the salty, sweet and sour taste of the dressing is in the balance of those ingredients. I am using locally caught snapper ...
Epi 4 Part 2: Fabrizio Flaxseed Mackerel, Beans Salad & Miso Vinaigrette
Where we can, I like to support local produce and use locally sustainable seafood. Do you know the local Spanish mackerel has similar content of Omega 3 fatty acids to that of the salmon? Yet its available locally, mostly wild caught and 3-times cheaper than the salmon. For this dish, the Spanish mackerel pairs so well with the bean salad and miso dressing. Flaxseed is high in Omega 3, fiber and protein! When grounded, its a better alternative to using plain flour. It also imparts a nice nutty ...
Soy Sesame Dressing with Rainbow Salad

You can surely make this dressing ahead, or double up the recipe to keep them handy for future uses. Once you have this salad in your pantry, you will ...

Kecap Manis Satay
Super kids friendly, non-spicy, easy satay recipes to make! Kecap Manis, an Indonesian word is literally translated to "Sweet Soy Sauce".
Kecap manis (pronounced KEH-chup MAH-nees) is an Indonesian sweet soy sauce with a molasses consistency and a dark brown color. Flavored with garlic, star anise, soybeans, and palm sugar, the sauce is more syrupy and complex than commonplace soy sauce.
Typically sold in Asian markets, kecap manis can be used as a condiment or marinade for satays ...
Easy Flatbreads
This recipe is so easy to whip up, really there's no excuse not to make fresh breads to soak up your curries or whenever you feel like it. I am usually hopeless at making bread but I can ace this. Great recipe for bread-idiots like me. Also known as naan, this bread is a staple on our kitchen table and its a great recipe to get the kids involved to make this together.
Skye, (age 9) knows the recipe by heart now. I am also comforted by the idea that she would not starve when is in ...
