MeuniereSawara fish and tomato

One of my favourite fish is this Sawara fish( spanish Mackerel).
Got them at Natural House where is located to near my place. It often sells some fish as super bargain price! I am 100% sure that their quality is always great. (Of course, proper price is super expensive. I have never bought fish as proper price there.)

Tonight, I cooked Sawara fish as meuniere. After meuniere it, roasted tomato with butter and season S&P, fish sauce and soy sauce.
It tastes like Vietnamese dish. Eat fish and roast tomato together. That's the yummy point.

In a salad, I added coriander, basil leaves and green lettuce. Fresh herbs go with Sawara fish.

Taro's rate:★★★★★
He loves to eat fish.

Thai Night ~Green Curry~

My friend visited my place and had dinner together.

Thai Green Curry
Very spicy. But coconuts milk made it more soft and rich.

Coriander and cucumber salad
(dressing:fish sauce, crushed garlic, vinegar and sesami oil)

Tapioka coconuts milk
(added condensed milk and water melon)

Taro's rate: none
He's not enough old to eat this sort of spicy food. I expected he might have tapioka dessert, but he didn't. :(

My Dad's Birthday



The easiest and quickest dish (grilled tuna and zucchini)
Just put tuna paste on the sliced tomato and chicory.
Reviewed today's cooking class.
Got a fruits tart at quil-fait-bon at near my place. Celebrated for my Dad's birthday.
He turned 71 !! Very Grandpa. :-P
Happy Birthday!

Rice Salad and Trofie Al Pesto

Today's Italian cooking class.

Rice salad.
Next time, I will try to make it using brown rice instead. Must be yum.
We made basil paste using a mortar. It's tough work indeed! But the taste was awesome.
My teacher doesn't like to use a food processor since the texture of paste is not good.
If I had enough time and energy, I would make it with a mortar.


Taro's rate:★★★★★
Absolutely yummy.

Ring shaped Pasta with vegetables lagu sauce

Ring shaped pasta
Took a pasta leave and learnt this pasta. :P
No meat. Tomato sauce with eggplants and zuccini.
My Punch salad
Why I named it "punch" is that I added Grated garlic, anchovi, digion mustard into the dressing.Thanks to the dressing, even very light and plain taste Tofu and vegetables could become gorgeous.
He had been suffering from summer cold. Since he had two canker sore in his throat, he couldn't eat solid food. Tonight, finally he was cured of it and enjoyed dinner very much. :)

Am very happy that he showed his "yummy sign"- he tapped his cheek by his hand- and said to me "Yummy~! Oishi~".
Taro's rate:★★★★★
He tried to get rid of sauce, but he failed. Thanks to lagu sauce! He was able to eat various vegetables.


This pasta is quite easy to make from scratch. No need to use pasta machine. Next time, I will make it with my son and his friends.

But beforehand, I want this!!


・・・・・・・Must be fun!!
