Picture School ----- Satisfying Meatless Lunch

- This is the table setting for my lunch. The metal spoon will is meant for Chawamushi ( Japanese steamed egg)

1) Preparation of Chawamushi.
- eggs
- Chicken stock
- fresh shitake

2) Dissolve stock( if you're using packet stock, then you can forgo this process)

3) Add egg into stock. The amount of stock to egg should be 2:1. Stock 2, egg 1.

4) whisk everything until smooth.


5) clean shitake and cross its top.

6) Pour whisked egg & stock lowly into skitake bowl.

7) Cover up and steam, remember to cover before steaming. Or egg will harden real quick and it'll have alot of holes within. Making the chawamushi hard.

Chawamushi DONE!!

Scoop into serving cups.


8) Prepare rice vermicelli.
9) DO NOT cook rice vermicelli the same way as Spaghetti. All we need to do is soak it in hot water, and drain it. Not boiling it over flames.

10) Prepare Stock. Slice ginger and prepare garlic.

11) Fry garlic & ginger in pot to extract the taste.


12) When fragrant arises and ginger turns crispy and golden, add in water.

13) Put in whatever vegetable of your choice,or what you find in your fridge.

i'm focusing on bittergourd & oyster mushroom this time.

Oyster Mushrooms.

Stock DONE!!

Bring everything out...set properly.

This is lunch!!....put rice vermicelli into bowl, top soup & its ingredients over!...

Easiest Pasta on earth...

This Marmite Sesame Pasta is definitely a HIT among kids as well as hungry Picnic people.
its easy to prepare and...hmmm...well, JUST EASY!!



1) Cook "halved" pasta till al dente.


2) "halved" meaning... we bend the angels hair pasta into 2 parts before throwing them into boiling water, ( you may also substitute with whatever pasta you have in your pantry)
3) Seasoning.... Sesame oil & Marmite ( you may substitute with Vegemite too)
4) The amount of Marmite and Sesame oil totally depends on your own preference. I'm only introducing the sauce concoction.
5) Toss Sesame oil and Marmite with pasta.

6) As usual, make sure you garnish your serving plates with fresh Greens. They're good for presentation as well as their nutrients.

7) Served!! Its also a light Vegetarian Meal substitute!
