Kimchi & lobster pancakes

August 2, 2019 by Ariel Leave a Comment

Every time I get the chance to eat at ChezBong in Chinatown, the Korean green onion pancakes is something I almost always order.  What’s being presented to you, today, isn’t an authentic Korean recipe but it’s been inspired by the savoury pancakes recipe you can find in Maangchi‘s cookbook.  It’s been said on Twitch already but, thank you so much again to the sweet reader who bought me this book, so much deliciousness in there from such an incredible lady.

So here it is… my twist on the beloved Korean green onion pancakes made with homemade kimchi, lobster, grilled corn and the obvious: green onions.

Bon appétit!

Grilled King oyster mushroom salad

June 27, 2019 by Ariel Leave a Comment

Don’t get me wrong, I love making sweets.  There’s something really happy about making something full of sugar because you know most people will be happy to eat it and you’ll get the satisfaction of watching them stuffing their faces with something you made with love.  Now, thing is, we can’t really eat sweets all the time (that’s a tragedy if you ask me) so this recipe is coming just at the right time to balance all the sweetness I’ve published on the blog lately.

King oyster mushrooms are one of my favourites because they are super meaty and they look beautiful in a plate.  Paring them with roasted tomatoes (aka: umami bomb – thank you Ivan Ramen for coining the term) and miso, you’ll quickly understand why I decided to post this recipe on here.

Sooooooo…. this sentence is getting redundant but, I really hope you get too try this quick and easy grilled king oyster salad with miso dressing on days where it’s too hot to eat anything to complexed or when you’re just too lazy to break your head in the kitchen.

Saturday’s brunch is a real thing and this fuss free recipe is going to be perfect to serve at any time today.  Breakfast, lunch or dinner… isn’t it always the perfect time for beautifully grilled veggies, poached eggs and melted goat cheese?

Yup, I thought so too.

So don’t spend your entire day in the kitchen today (unless you’re an obsessed foodie like me) and eat delicious food that will keep you happy and healthy for your big relaxing day.

Maple Flavoured Green Beans

February 10, 2017 by Ariel Leave a Comment

There’s been quit a bit of movements on my Instagram story lately.  Today’s #FoodieExperiment was the “Breakfast Poutine” but beside my idea being pretty good, a lot of refinement will be needed before making it a “blog post worthy” recipe.

These maple flavoured green beans is another recipe I’ve shared today and I decided to post it right away because it really is my favourite way to eat green beans.  Seriously… is there anything maple syrup cants do?!!
