Katsu is one of those go to dishes for me. It’s quick, it’s easy, its double dipped in panko to give it that awesome crunchiness! Yay! Also, if you can’t find any Katsu sauce in the grocery (like me), I made my own katsu sauce as well.

Shakeys Japan recently came out with a recipe for how to make their infamous mojo potatoes. And while this recipe does not follow them to the tee, the concept is similar. Firstly, I recommend steaming the potatoes to cook the inside and give it a fuller bite (Shakeys recommends microwaving it). Either way it’s going to be very hot so I suggest to run the potatoes under cold water. Afterwards it a batter wash for me that includes egg and a mix of flour, garlic powder, pepper, paprika, and cayenne pepper. (Shakeys’ recipe was to use chicken breading)

Ok so I’ve been on this mango smoothie journey for awhile and I’ve tried a whole bunch of stuff that included trying yogurts, sugars, juice and fruit combinations so I think I have a bit of experience now when I say that this is the best mango smoothie recipe. 

 Yogurt, for me, has a bit of a tar taste even if it's plain, while other fruit combinations such as those with banana takes away a bit of the banana flavor. A proper mango shake, such as those in my country, the Philippines, often use condensed milk which in itself has a bit of a strong milk taste. A mango freeze has ice cream and a mango refresher is just juice. 

 I wanted something that had just mango flavors but with the consistency of a proper shake. And so here's the best mango smoothie you'll ever make. It includes 1/2 cup ice, 1 cup full milk, 1 cup fresh chopped mango, and 1/4 cup mango purée. Pour into glass and top with whipped cream and chopped mango. That’s it. That's the best mango smoothie recipe in the world. =)

I was supposed to make mango graham but because I still had a bunch of cream cheese, I decided to make a cheesecake instead. I did not want to bake so I decided to go the route of whipping cream and cream cheese, with a bit of mango purée. I added pistachios in the crust and on top. I also made mango jello because I had a bunch of purée left lol but honestly you could do without. Enjoy!

Combining my love of carbonara and bacon (because who doesn’t) then added some crimini mushrooms for flavor and four-cheese Alfredo sauce for a flavorful pasta.

Igado comes from Spanish word "higado" meainng liver. Indeed liver is the primary ingredient in this dish even as different variations of this dish has come about. The Igado I made is a bit different because of the use of liver spread instead of meat (because the lockdown had made it unable to get one), and crimini mushrooms which is a great mushroom for stir frying.

Made omelette this morning with spinach, mushroom, bacon bits and cheddar cheese. You can also use Swiss cheese (although technically you can just pick whatever’s in your fridge to turn into an omelette)...

Egg salad -- or as some people call it, egg spreads -- make  for a nice “palaman” to your morning bread. For non-Filipinos, no, this is not the egg sandwich that Harley Quinn got in the Birds of Prey. In this recipe I made egg salad using honey mustard and mayo with relish. And ate it with Hawaiian rolls. 

 Perhaps as important to making egg salad is making a properly hard boiled egg. And that's as easy as putting eggs in a pan, setting it to boil, and then putting it to low for 7-10 minutes.  You will always get a proper hard boiled egg that way. Also, how to properly crack eggs -- who knew there would so much technicalities to making hard boiled eggs lol -- but if you're a 13 year old venturing in this for the ver first time, you might want to know cracking the middle part of the egg and then rolling it while lightly pressing down does the trick for me. There ya go. Enjoy. =)

Making teriyaki salmon is fairly easy and it’s a dish that everyone enjoys. It stars by making the marinade composed of soy sauce, oyster sauce, teriyaki sauce, brown sugar seasoned with garlic and ginger. I added a bit of calamansi extract for the pinoy flare - I should say that anytime I see lemon or lime needed in recipe, I usually use calamansi instead. The salmon fillet is marinated for at least 30 minutes before being cooked in the pan. The salmon should be cooked on both sides and the entire process should take 10-15 minutes. I like to reduce the sauce until the it's caramelized so that it's got that thick sweet sauce that we teriyaki has. I served it with rice along with some blanched yu choy in the remaining sauce.

One of my favorite dishes from the Philippines is calls beef pares (pronounced “pah-ress”) which is beef brisket stewed in a sweet sauce made up of soy sauce, oyster sauce, star anise powder and brown sugar mixed with garlic, onions and ginger. It’s either served with rice but some pinoys would get it with egg noodles (a soup called pares mami)

Had some peeled frozen prawns that I was gonna turn into camaron rebosado but had a craving for mango chili prawns instead. Mango Chili Prawns is a sweet and spicy stir fry dish that uses mangoes and prawns mixed with sweet chili sauce along with garlic, onions, ginger, bellpeppers and cilantro. I also used a bit of soy sauce and calamansi extract.

Red ice tea is an easy to make drink that gives your cupboard iced tea some depth of flavor lol. Simply mix 1 tbsp of powdered lemon iced tea with 1/4th cup grenadine, and 2 cups water and pour over ice. Enjoy :)

I’m still on lockdown with an entire bag of baby potatoes so I decided to make a quick and easy bacon potato salad. It uses bacon bits as opposed to frying bacon and honey mustard instead of a vinaigrette. I also added arugula for a depth of flavor. Enjoy =)
