The Magical Recipe Tree

Welcome

The idea for storing my most used recipes online came after a period of having my recipes and cookbooks tucked away in storage. The ease and convenience of having them available at the push of an internet button was simply to good to resist! As much as I love cooking and experimenting in the kitchen, I didn't create the majority of recipes on this site, I merely love to use them, but I'll attempt to document every recipe I know the origin of.
As a pescetarian, the selection of recipes will reflect this- but there will still be a few family recipes included from my pre-pesc years... though I aim to convert these to pesc-friendly dishes at some stage!

Steamed Silken Tofu


300g silken tofu

Dressing
1 tablespoon finely chopped ginger
2 tablespoon sliced spring onion
2 tablespoon chopped coriander stems
2 tablespoon kecap manis (or dark chinese soy)
2 tablespoon black vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 ½ tablespoon light soy
¼ teaspoon chilli oil

2 tablespoon peanut oil
¼ cup coriander leaves
Pinch sichuan pepper (or white pepper) and salt


Cut tofu into rectangular pieces. Oil the top of a bamboo steamer and place the tofu pieces in the steamer. Steam for 8-10 minutes with the lid on.
Combine all the dressing ingredients in a small bowl, set aside.
Remove tofu and drain away any excess liquid.
Heat peanut oil until smoking.
Place the tofu on a plate in a single layer, pour the dressing over tofu, then carefully drizzle with hot oil.
Garnish with coriander, sichuan pepper and salt.
