Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Marinated lamb with soba noodles, coriander and teriyaki dipping sauce (Lamb kare lomen)

    • Eurydice on January 28, 2011

      Maybe just as good with beef as lamb

  • Stir fried tofu with mixed vegetables, rice noodles and coconut ginger sauce (Yasai itameru)

    • Eurydice on March 25, 2011

      Didn't work for me. There are better tofu recipes.

  • Chicken rice noodles

    • FJT on August 10, 2019

      Lovely dish which disappeared very quickly. I had made the coconut ginger sauce in advance, so this came together very quickly.

  • Coconut ginger sauce

    • FJT on August 10, 2019

      Easy to make, especially if you use a blender instead of grating the ginger etc... Tasted good but was slightly overpowered by the other flavours in the dish I used it for.

  • Ginger chicken teppan

    • twoyolks on October 23, 2013

      This ended up being rather bland. It was reminiscent of a moo goo gai pan with noodles.

  • Marinated chicken stir fry

    • twoyolks on March 24, 2014

      This looks nothing like the picture: the sauce is a lot darker, heavier, and thicker. The sauce tasted too salty; this may depend on the saltiness of the soy sauce used.

  • Chicken tama rice

    • adewar on December 06, 2015

      Our local Wagamama took this off the menu and so I have tried to recreate the restaurant dish with this recipe. It is almost right...maybe slightly more bland

  • Chicken chilli men

    • etcjm on September 23, 2019

      I wasn't impressed at all. I may have taken on too much by doing a few dishes from this book but when you have to premake sauces before you can start it just seems to take forever. The soba noodles ended up in the bin because they stuck together. It wasn't spicy enough and the person who I made it for didn't like it.

    • njm68 on June 21, 2022

      Fabulous and quick too!

  • Teriyaki sauce

    • etcjm on September 23, 2019

      Was interested to try this as I've never been able to buy gluten free teriyaki. Made half the mixture to make a chicken dish. Seems very watery to me but smells like it should I suppose. When used it didn't add much flavour so I'll use the leftovers as a marinade and see if that works better.
