I once shared a house with a Korean girl who taught me how to make kimchi back in the 90s before it became trendy to eat. She used to swear by it curing colds and keeping her healthy. I must admit it has helped me get over a sore throat and cold in the last few days!

Love good food and I discovered quite early on in life that the easiest way to eat well for less was to make it myself. I work full time during the day and have a family and dog to juggle too. Most of my meals are quick, easy to make and always using fresh ingredients. I cook all regions of food but my roots are Cantonese so the style features in many of my Asian dishes. I do a lot of fusion food too. Occasionally I'll indulge in the occasional posh instant noodles from Korea or Japan.
