Cabbage/4 recipes

A Chinese inspired stir-fry dish is wrapped into lettuce leaves to serve, and enjoy all the yummy goodness in one wrap!

I cut the recipe in half and made 24 mini muffins, which baked in 12 minutes. I also took the liberty of adding a pinch of ground cinnamon and 1/4 tsp. of vanilla extract.

A sweeter Memphis slaw featuring bold southern flavors so it can stand up to full flavor barbecue classics such as pulled pork or Memphis ribs.

An exciting blend of vegetables and spices is sealed inside wrappers, then baked until crisp. Delicious and crunchy without deep frying! I’ll keep it short today. I’d like to think that all or almost all of you already know how to make spring rolls. They are one of my fave finger foods and ever since I’ve come across the oven-baked version, I’ve nominated them as my no1 Savoury Stuff, way better than deep fried street food and packaged crisps/ chips.

Cabbage and Daikon Kim Chee recipe

This savory tart is a delicious way to cook with your leafy-greens, such as kale, Swiss chard, collards and sweet potato or squash. The balsamic vinegar is used on both cooking greens and caramelizing the onions, which really adds a delicious hint, the feta cheese adds the nice cheesiness and well-balanced saltiness. It can be served as a main dish or a side dish!

Juicy chicken breasts, stuffed with cream cheese and then wrapped in bacon. Just 4 ingredients transform themselves into oozy gooey goodness!

Sweet, sour and tasty maple-soy dressing makes this slaw refreshingly delicious.

Super quick and easy way to dress up healthy omega 3 filled salmon. Dill, lemon and capers work perfectly with quick broiled salmon.

A little bit of heat with a tangy sweet and sour taste. This cucumber soba salad for sure refreshes your taste buds while satisfies your tummy.

Quick, easy, delicious!

New potatoes in a tangy cheesy butter caper sauce.

So to start off with the first post, I decided to make a meal that screams of comfort food. Whilst it does take a bit of a while to get the meal done, once you take that first bite, heaven couldn’t seem closer if you were Adam trying to touch God’s finger in the “Creation of Adam” fresco created by Michaelangelo. The meal I speak of is Cottage Pie. There is much debate as to what exactly a cottage pie is and how it is different to a Shepherd’s pie...I don’t know. The dominant theory is that Sheperds pie uses lamb mince, whilst a cottage pie uses beef mince. I don’t know about you, but the term “Sheperds Pie” does not get my tastebuds going quite as well, so I prefer the term cottage pie. Besides, comparing the price of ground (mince) beef to ground lamb, a student would pick up the beef mince in a heartbeat without even so much as glancing at the lamb in the meat section. This cottage pie that I made is full of flavour, and just makes you want to cuddle up next to a fire and watch TCM movies all day either by yourself, or with a significant other. Here is the recipe:

It's easy to make your own home-made pasta. Many Italian families do it every day. This is a very traditional original recipe from Larousse Gastronomique the French bible of fine dining and cooking.

Only 4 ingredients! Grape juice studded with banana slices makes this all-natural dessert delightfully glorious!
