I try to serve fish dish at least once or twice a week at home, that's why I am now on an endless journey of finding easy recipes for cooking fish. Last night I discover something wonderful; Korean BBQ salmon recipe and I decided to give it a try. It was an easy recipe yet has an impressive result. Go on and have a try! 

I ate this Salmon with Avocado salad as an appetizer on one of the sushi restaurants in town. I really fell in love with the sweet, tangy taste of the salmon melts in your mouth along with the buttery avocado. Unfortunately, for a mini-ants-bowl of this salad was pretty pricey at the restaurant. I was determined to find the recipe and make the salad myself so I can enjoy it as often as I want to. I got the recipe from this site . I am not sure if its the exact recipe that the restaurant uses, but it taste almost identically similar.  

Ingredients:
500 gr Salmon fillet, skin removed and cut into bite size chunk
2 Tbsp Japanese soy sauce
2 Tbsp Dry sherry or Japanese mirin
50g light brown sugar
1 Tbsp Rice vinegar

Salad:
3 Tbsp mayonnaise
1 Tsp sesame oil
1 cup of diced cucumber
1 firm-ripe avocado, diced
2 spring onions, chopped
2 cups of chopped lettuce
2 Tbsp pistachio, chopped

1. Mix Japanese soy sauce, mirin and brown sugar in a container then marinate the fish in the mixture for few minutes.
2. Meanwhile, prepare your cucumber, lettuce and spring onion. To prevent oxidation, cut the avocado before you serve.
3. Heat a non-stick frying, pick up the fish from the mixture and cook it on the pan (don't use oil) for 2-3 minutes. Fold occassionally.
4. When your fish start to change color, add the marinate mix into the pan and let it bubble away for a minute or two. Once the fish is cooked enough to your liking (some people like their salmon a bit pinkish in the middle), pick up the fish and set aside on a plate.
5. Continue cooking the marinate sauce and add the rice vinegar, mix the sauce with spatula often so it doesn't burnt on the bottom. Once the sauce thickens, turn of the stove and set aside.
6. For the waffu dressing; mix mayonnaise with sesame oil then pour in the almost sticky thick sauce from the fish. Mix thoroughly.
7. Put the cucumber, lettuce, spring onion, avocado and pour the waffu dressing sauce over the salad and toss gently.
8. Plate the salad on the serving plate and put the fish on top. Your sweet salmon salad is ready to serve!

Happy cooking!!


You can't get any simpler fish recipe then this one!



This is by far, my favorite, easiest salmon on skewer recipe. 


Does my fish looks temptingly hot? It does have a bit of a kick but its worth it! 
This is so far my fav mackerel recipe that I ever cooked :) 

I found this interesting recipe on a local library book. It was my first time cooking lobster in Indonesian recipe and it was a big success!! It made a very good appetizer soup. Or even main meal, just add some rice. 

I usually don't buy whole fish but today I decided to try to cook a whole fish and it was a big success! Its easy and cheap :) 



I've never liked fish balls before, I always found it too fishy for my taste. You know, not the good kind of fresh-fishy smell but rather strong-dead-fishy kind of smell. Fortunately, my fishball-phobia is now gone after I try this recipe. It was easy, cheap and very good!

Originally comes from North of Sulawesi (Celebes) 
Once you bite, one would never be enough....


Fish best served grilled! 




If you say SARDEN, most of Indonesian will think about fish in a can with tomato sauce. Its a classic easy canned food in Indonesia. Most of people I know modifies the sauce to their liking and so do I. This time I make everything from scratch, fresh food is always better then canned one!

Bruschetta is a simple , fresh Italian appetizer (finger food) that can be prepared any minutes and enjoyed anytime you like..
Great for parties and picnics or when your kids friends come and you have no idea what to make... Believe me Chips and Cola  are Not a good Idea ;-) ,, 
so Why don't you try this one .... Simple and healthy food...


Caserole Tuna pasta?.. Easy? Why not?!..
