These chewy cylinders of goodness took me a solid year to get the technique down, but am I ever glad I did. Korean rice cakes are something I've come to absolutely love over the last few years. Similar to Italian gnocchi in a way, but with a much more satisfying chew. They're an easy way to jazz up a stir fry, stew or soup. But no recipe is more iconic or recognized than Tteok-bokki. Rice cakes simmered in a spicy, sweet and savoury sauce.

While Ramen will always hold a special place in my heart. Vietnamese Beef Pho is my absolute favourite noodle soup. It's incredibly simple while also being overly complex in flavour. Normally taking a minimum of 24 hours, this quick 4 hour version still packs a ton of beefy flavour with minimal effort.

One of the coolest techniques I ever learned in all of my years working in restaurants, was how to debone an entire chicken. Which if you've never deboned any chicken, is way easier than you expect it to be. And because it's me, I then turn it into the biggest piece of fried chicken, you will ever see!

After resisting for so long, I finally gave in a tried a TikTok food trend lol. Though in all fairness this dish actually does predate TikTok and is a pretty popular party food amongst the Japanese population living in Hawaii. To my surprise though it's actually way better than I assumed it would be and is kind of like a cross between a casserole and a warm California roll that's eaten like a taco. Which I get, sounds a bit bizarre. But this trend is definitely worth trying.

With a recent snow storm and my car still beaten up, I really didn't want to venture outside for ingredients. So I literally threw this dish together using the staples I always have on hand as well as leftovers from last week's episode, and you know what? It was really good and healthy too! You'll get some insight as to how my thought process works with this one when developing a new recipe. So take the principles and use them to make this dish your own and utilize what you have on hand to make something delicious.

Juicy pork, coconut water, caramel and fish sauce. Ok, on paper this Vietnamese braised pork sounds a bit weird, I get it. But after slow cooking until tender and sticky it has a flavour reminiscent of sweet and sour pork, minus the sour. Paired with a fresh and citrusy green herb salad it makes the perfect pick me up on a cold winter day.
