Be Always Full of Grace


Nigella Kitchen Japanese Prawns


Nigella Express Maple Chicken and Ribs



Nigella Express Caramel Croissant Pudding





The family had a Nigella meal for dinner. Although the cook, yours truly did not have to put much sweat and tears in preparing the three courses, the whole meal did'nt go well with the family. At the end of the meal, they said, "We prefer J.O."

Japanese Prawns Adapted Recipe
A simple stir fry prawns with sake and wasabi. I thought it was not too bad for a quick salad meal. Double up the sauce to make enough dressing for salad, rice or noodle. I used 300g of fresh grey prawns.

Mapl;e Chicken and Ribs Recipe
If you are roasting these two, separate into two trays so that the chicken skin will not be burnt too quickly. I have to remove the chicken 20 minutes before the ribs. It is a little on the sweet side, add more soy sauce or rub some salt on the chicken skin. I cooked 6 ribs, 2 chiken legs and 2 chicken thighs.

Caramel Croissant Pudding Recipe
Best eaten warm or with vanilla ice cream. I baked them in 4 ramekins. I used rum and 3 croissants instead of two. Watch the fire, my caramel was a little burnt.

  4. Hi Lian! I always think Nigella's recipes are quite sinful! :D

    Okok... yummy food are generally unhealthier but she's really quite generous with cream, butter etc... all are my weaknesses! :D

  5. Hi Lian,

    I was like "what???" after reading your post. I'm surprised that your family didn't like this Nigella meal :p Apart from the prawns (due to my allergy), I would :D

    I'm a fan of both JO and Nigella but wouldn't compare them head to head... I like to appreciate as individual...
