Shrimp Toast is all about its crispy crust, golden-brown shell, with the perfect amount of bouncy, chewy shrimp paste. A flavorful mixture of ground shrimp is spread onto slices of white bread. You can then air-fry, pan-fry, or like what we are doing today – deep-fry them. I normally like to pair it with the Thai Sweet Chili Sauce, but I was out of that at home. I used Kewpie Mayo with sprinkles of paprika instead, and it turned out surprisingly delicious.

Mochi is probably the easiest and most fun dessert to make, as long as you don’t get them to stick on your hands. As mango season has just arrived in Vancouver, it is the perfect time for us to make Mango Mochi. Tangy and sweet mango filling is covered with airy freshly whipped cream and soft, chewy mochi. It is the perfect dessert for afternoon tea snacks or the upcoming warmer days. It can also be easily customized for vegan preferences.

This recipe is a creation from the leftover cooked beef tenderloin from my previous post – Pistachio-Crusted Beef Tenderloin. It is also inspired by the classic comfort food from Japan, Gyudon (Japanese beef bowl). This Beef Tenderloin Rice Bowl is paired with an onsen egg. When mixing the yolk with rice, it adds a layer of richness to the overall flavour. I would say this is the best part of the meal.

A beautifully roasted beef tenderloin doesn’t need much seasoning to be incredibly delicious. And even for first-timers, it is easy to perfect this dish and impress your partner on the upcoming Valentine’s Day. Pistachio-Crusted Beef Tenderloin uses simple ingredients such as pistachio and Dijon mustard to make a crunchy crust for this ultra-tender beef dish. It is then paired with a homemade chimichurri sauce, which adds a herbaceous flavour with a hint of heat from the red chili.
