Ochazuke with Salmon Flakes

Ochazuke is a dish in which hot tea is poured over cooked white rice topped with a few simple ingredients. It is a deceptively simple yet extremely tasty dish beloved by all Japanese. Ochazuke can be enjoyed as a light meal or snack at any time of day, and it is extremely easy to prepare. All you need to do is put some simple ingredients on a bowl of hot white rice and pour a cup of tea over it.
Of course, the flavor of the dish will improve if you are particular about the rice, the type of tea, and the topping. Favorite Japanese toppings are pickled plums (umeboshi), dried sea laver (nori), grilled salmon, soy-simmered fish and seaweed, tempura, broiled eel, and so on. Alternatives from Western cuisine are grilled chicken, grilled salmon, pickled cucumber, smoked salmon, and oysters marinated in oil.
Various seasonings can be added for flavor, such as sesame seeds, Japanese horseradish (wasabi), or freshly grated ginger. Ochazuke is normally served in a bowl large enough to hold the rice and a generous amount of tea. Individual salad bowls, large breakfast cups, or cereal bowls are good substitutes.
Ingredients:
1/2 salmon steak
salt to taste
1 1/2 cups hot water
1 1/2 tsp sencha, bancha, or hojicha [green tea]
1 bowl warm cooked rice
2-3 trefoil (mitsuba), cut into 1 1/2-inch (4-cm) lengths
1 tbsp croutons or any crunchy cereal
Japanese horseradish (wasabi), optional

Green Curry by PUM


Thai Green Curry with Chicken
Ingredients
Serves 4
* 3 tablespoons green curry paste (store bought)
* 1 tablespoon peanut oil or vegetable oil
* 100g palm sugar
* 100ml fish sauce
* 100ml tamarind water*
* 4 kaffir lime leaf
* 200ml coconut cream
* 400ml chicken stock
* 500g chicken breast, thinly sliced
* 100g snow peas
* ½ punnet grape tomatoes
* 4 Thai eggplant
* 50g pea eggplant


Heat the oil in a wok over a medium heat. Add the curry paste and fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Add the palm sugar and fish sauce and cook until thick and bubbling. Add the tamarind water, kaffir lime leaf, coconut cream and stock. Bring back to a boil and reduce to a simmer.

Add the chicken and cook for 1 minute. Add the tomato and eggplant and cook for 5 minutes.

Check the consistency as it needs to resemble a soup not a thick curry, adjust by adding extra stock if need be.

*Tamarind water can be made by using either a jar of tamarind paste mixed in equal parts with water or by soaking a block of tamarind in one litre warm water, removing the seeds and straining, keeping the tamarind water for later use.

TIP: Try adding a stalk of lemon grass and a knob of galangal to the soup before adding any meat or vegetables, simmering for 10 minutes to infuse the flavour. Remember to top up with stock or water to keep it of soup consistency.

Massaman's Recipe.By MOND IELTS


Massaman Curry (gaeng matsaman – แกงมัสมั่น) is a Southern Thai curry which has a lot of Indian influence. Massaman is an old way of saying “Muslim”, for many of the dry spices were carried to Thailand by early Muslim traders. Like Indian curries, this curry is heavy on dry spices and very aromatic. It’s typically served with rice or roti, and sometimes with a side of ajaat.
The curry paste.
· 10 :big dried chilies:, roasted, soaked and seeded
· 1/2 teaspoon :black peppercorns:, roasted
· 1 teaspoon :cilantro seeds:, roasted
· 1 teaspoon cumin seeds, roasted
· 2 cloves, roasted
· 2 :cardamom: pods, roasted
· 1 teaspoon :shrimp paste:, roasted
· 1/2 teaspoon powdered nutmeg (not roasted)
· 1 teaspoon :salt:
· 1 teaspoon :magroot: skin
· 1 teaspoon :galangal:
· 1 tablespoon :cilantro roots:
· 1 tablespoon :lemongrass:
· 1/4 cup :shallots:
· 2 tablespoons :garlic:

You’ll need.
4 tablespoons curry paste (below, or bought)
3 tablespoons :oil:
1 leg and 2 thighs :chicken:
1 cup coconut cream + 1 cup :coconut milk:
1 cup white potatoes
1 cup :onions:, or peeled whole :shallots:
4 :cardamom: pods
1/4 cup roasted :peanuts:, whole
1 tablespoon :palm sugar:
1" piece of :cinnamon stick:
2 dried :cassia leaves:
2 tablespoons :fish sauce: (or to taste)
2 tablespoons :tamarind paste: (or to taste)

Directions
If making your own paste, dry roast the dry spices in a pan on medium heat until fragrant, about 2-4 minutes. It’s best to roast each thing one at a time until fragrant. The chilies should be browned. Roast the shrimp paste wrapped in tin foil for a few minutes too.
Soak the dried chilies until soft, then take out the seeds and inner bits and chop fine.
Pound the paste in a stone mortar & pestle. Start by grinding up the dried spices until powdered, then set aside. Put the chilies in the mortar and pound until uniformly smashed, then add the rest of the ingredients, starting from hardest and driest and working up to softest at the end. Then add the dried spice powder back in and the shrimp paste. Mix well. If using a food processor, just mix it all in together. If using canned paste, skip these three steps.
Cut the potatoes and onions into bite-sized pieces and wash the chicken.
Add the oil to the pan and turn on to medium high. Fry 4 tablespoons of the paste until fragrant, about 3-4 minutes. Keep stirring so it doesn’t burn.
Add the whole chicken pieces. Fry until the chicken is sealed on the outside, about 2-3 minutes.
Add 1 cup of the coconut cream (top part of the can if using canned – don’t shake the can). Simmer until the oil separates, about 2-3 minutes. You’ll see reddish oil starting to float to the top.
Add the potatoes, peanuts and onions and the 1 cup of coconut milk. Simmer for a few minutes.
Add the cinnamon, cardamom seeds, cassia leaves. Mix well.
Simmer (and stir well) until the mixture browns and a good deal of oil comes to the top. About 15-20 minutes. If it gets too dry, add some water. Add the fish sauce, palm sugar and tamarind juice at the end. Taste – you may need to adjust the flavor if it’s not salty or sour enough.
Serve with rice or roti. Also is great with ajaat (slightly pickled cucumber salad) on the side.

Cold Noodle(Naengmyeon) by Jung, Yun Hee





Naengmyeon is made with wheat or buckwheat flour and it is especially popular in summer.


There are two types of Naengmyeon; one type is Mul- Naengmyeon, which is cold noodles served in a chilled beef broth, and the second type is Bibim-Naengmyeon, which is cold noodles mixed with spicy sauce or raw skate.

INGREDIENTS:

A package of cold noodles, onion, garlic, green onions,
ginger, cucumber, egg, 1 bosc pear, hot pepper flakes,
hot pepper paste, sesame seeds, vinegar, sesame oil, corn syrup,
salt, soy sauce, sugar, mustard powder

How made it??

1. Make stock by boiling 8 cups of water, 3-4 shiitake mushrooms, dried kelp, and 8-10 dried anchovies and cool it down.

2. Prepare toppings for naengmyeon

Mustard powder:
Mix 2 tbs of mustard powder and 1 tbs water and put it on warm place to ferment it.
(I place it on the top of boiling stock)

Cucumber:
Slice a quarter of cucumber thinly and sprinkle a pinch of salt, 1 ts of sugar, 1 ts of
vinegar, and a pinch of hot pepper flakes and mix it and set it aside
Bosc pear:
Slice a half pear thinly and soak it in water and add 1 ts sugar to protect it from
changing color
Egg:
Hardboil an egg, cut it in half, and set it aside

(But, if you wants cook the naengmyeon, you will be able to bought 'Meat soup' in the Korean grocery)

3. Boil the noodles:

Put noodles into boiling water in a big pot (2/3 of the pot is filled with water). The direction of cooking noodles is on the back of the noodle package and it usually takes 3-4 minutes to boil after putting the noodles into the boiling water. You can take some sample to check if the noodles are cooked enough or not.

When the noodles are cooked, move the pot into a kitchen sink and pour cold water and remove some water and pour cold water again. This process helps the noodles get chewier.

Place the noodles into a basket or colander and keep rinsing and draining the noodles until all starch from the noodles are removed.
Serve it cold cold!

4. For mul naengmyeon

Put the some noodles into a serving bowl and fill the broth until the noodles are submerged.
Add crushed ice and place toppings: yeolmu kimchi, a few pieces of pear and cucumber, and a half side of boiled egg on top.
Add 1 ts of mustard and vinegar.

Watsons BAY

Today was the first day to take Austrailian culture class.
With Jay, the teacher who guided us, we went to the Watsons Bay.

Today's weather and the scenary was absolutely great.
I could enjoy seeing the beautiful cliff, taking a walk.
It took almost 2~3hours.
On the way to the Bay, I could see the bottle brush that is kind of tree,acasia.-
Jay told us-

(Please Do understand, my lack of vocabulary, grammartical erros.!)

-I 've been in Sydney for a month, but it was first time to visit Watsons Bay.

There was a famous cliff for suiciding(?), jumpping spot, in the GAP PARK.
-Jay told us about an famous model who had been murdered and dumped over the cliff.
but He doesn't know her name. She was only 20 at the time she had been killed.

-Fish & chips -11.80$ was my lunch
It was delicious, plentiful and having lots of fats too...
I shouldn't have eaten all, for my diet,, but I did. -_-
BUT I really enjoyed that.

If I have a chance to go to Watsons Bay again, I will definitely go there.


Bus number -380 (bondi junction)
I went to the clif near Bondaybeach with my classmate.

It was so nice weather to hike today.
we can have seen a wonderfull view from the top of the hill!

I can not explain how great it is!

After hiking,we got lunch in the park.
Because I was so hungrry, I could have all of lunch!!
