Some sundays, i just feel like having kaya toast for breakfast.

Kaya is one jam i think i just have to have once in awhile.

And in Jun&Aki style, with lots of cheese~

Lunch, was also, another of our comfort food,

Kitsune soba (a very basic on the soba menu, soba topped with soybean skin in hot soup)

we had a little yakitori treat by the side too =)

The soba portions for 2 persons is usually too much for us to finish, so i made noodle galette (pancake) with the extra soba.

Soba and carrot galette

Our mains was gorgeously meaty tonight...

Tonkatsu filled with ume shiso paste and cheese

I have no idea why i was just craving tonkatsu the whole weekend.

J said he felt like having tonkatsu too! So, happily, we bought some lean meat and baked (yup, three cheers for this oven that deep fries!) this for a guilt free and satisfying tonkatsu dinner!

Mmm~!

Soba galette

2 cups boiled soba (or any kind of noodles)

1 grated carrot

any pickles left in the fridge

salt, pepper

2 heaped tbs of potato starch powder or plain flour

Mix everything together, heat a frying pan with 1 tablespoon of oil, pour the mixture in, and flatten out in the pan. Once nicely browned, flip and fry the otherside too.

Using potato starch powder gives a chewy texture, while plain flour would give a crispy surface.

Serve with mayonnaise or drizzle with any salad dressing!

A really great way to finish those extra portions of noodles and vegetables and pickles sitting in the fridge.

Rain has started. Free air con tonight =)
