These little cakes are only baked for a short time every year in China and everywhere else where the Moon Festival is celebrated. These Mooncakes with Red Bean Paste are (among other versions) extremely popular and essential to celebrate the Moon Festival (Mid-Autumn Festival) properly. How else can you enjoy the full moon if you don’t share a few of these cakes with family and friends?! ;)
When it comes to Asian noodle dishes, a simple Pad Thai (with Chicken) is always at the top of our list. It’s quite easy to prepare and doesn’t require too many exotic ingredients… Asian cuisine often uses a lot of different spices and sauces that are not very common in cooking recipes of Western countries. At least the traditional cooking recipes. ;P
When we order Crispy Pork Belly and other small dishes as appetizers at the Asian dumpling restaurant around the corner, the pork belly is always the first dish that’s gone… It’s slightly spicy, crispy, and really delicious. Impossible to resist. Really… ;P
We love Asian cuisine – that’s probably because we like everything a little spicier. Let’s just say that slightly »hotter« dishes are not uncommon in Asia, right?! ;) This delicious Korean Cucumber Salad (with Gochugaru) also packs a punch… if you’re not careful with the chili flakes, aka. Gochugaru. If you like it tasty and spicy, you should definitely make this recipe!
We are not cooking too many soups at home, but when we do, it’s often something like this simple Coconut Curry Dumpling Soup. Quick and easy to prepare and really tasty with all the add-ins! Nobody likes a thin and boring soup with nothing in it. Right?! ;P
We love Asian cuisine – many of you probably feel the same way. Even though the ingredient lists sometimes look quite extensive, preparing Asian dishes is often quite simple. These delicious Dandan Style Szechuan Noodles with Minced Beef can be on the table in around 25 minutes. Perfect for a relaxed evening after work with a delicious dinner that doesn’t take long to be prepared. ;P
I love my job, but in between I love to bake and try new things in the kitchen. A lot of my friends and colleagues encourage me to bake - for a very simple reason: they get the leftovers - and it seems they like it most of the time ;)
