Number of steps: 6, 7 steps Time taken: 20 - 30 min Approx. 50 - 80 kcal per skewer About This Dish: When you go to a casual drinking dining (a.k.a. Izakaya) in Japan, one of the dishes people usually order is yakitori. Chicken on skewers. Easy to eat, goes great with beer and sake and tasty. Although there are a bunch of other skewers (such as chicken meatballs, liver, skin, cartilage, vegetables, fish) people order, chicken on skewers is the most common. Usually it is char-boiled but given the fact that we are home, this recipe calls for the regular pan you usually cook your regular dishes with. When you are at a restaurant, you usually pick if you want the sauce version or if you want the salted version. Most of the skewers are usually eaten with the sauce but once again, it's all your preference ;) This dish turned out great! My izakaya lover boyfriend even said "It tastes better than izakaya!" My friends who were over for dinner also loved it! What You Need: (For 2 - 3 servings)

Number of steps: 5 steps Time taken: 30 min to marinate the chicken (if you choose to) 5 min to prepare 15 - 20 min in the oven Approx. 200 kcal per serving About This Dish: As you probably know by now, I love fried food. Especially fried chicken! However, now that I'm trying to eat healthy and cut out empty calories from oil and such, "fake" fried food are my best friends. Check out the Fake Katsu Recipe. Doesn't it just feel great knowing that what you made tastes as good as fried food, but is much MUCH healthier? This recipe, like the Fake Katsu Recipe uses absolutely no oil. Additionally, I've used very lean chicken. The crunchiness of the sesame seeds and the marinate prior gave this chicken a fantastic taste which reminded me of a dish back in Japan; Kara-age (Fried chicken with coating)! What You Need: (For 4 servings)
Number of steps: 9 steps Time taken: 15 - 20 min About This Dish: Omurice is essentially a soft and fluffy omelette topped on chicken rice which is usually ketchup flavoured. Some people wrap the chicken rice into the omelette and some top the omelette carefully on top of the bed of rice. This dish is popular as a homemade dish and as a lunch/dinner dish in western restaurants. You could add some more ketchup on top of the dish or pour beef stew on top (a.k.a. Hayashi rice, which I will post in the future). I cannot tell you how great the rice tasted. It tasted as though I had been cooking it for hours or in my crockpot! What You Need: (For 2 dishes)
Note: If you want to wrap your chicken rice with the egg, simply put the bed of rice on top of the egg at step 7. Place on the edge so you can roll the egg up like an omelette! Number of steps: 3 steps Time taken: 10-15 min About This Dish: Mochi, mochi, mochi. My favourite word and food. I whipped this dish up for my father who was craving for an "otsumami" with his sake and beer. In the fridge, I had a potato, so I used that! It turned out to have a great texture, very mochi like. I put in some butter and cheese so the taste is something an adult or child will love. You can make a ton of it and freeze it for future use. What You Need: (For 6 mini jaga-mochis)
