Macaroni is one of my favourite pastas - very versatile and equally delicious cooked both Western and Asian methods. For today, I took a page from one of my favourite Hong Kong 'char chan teng' fare and whipped up an extremely easy and soothing macaroni with brown enoki mushrooms in abalone and chicken broth. I did cheat though and used abalone sauce and store-bought chicken broth instead of going the traditional route, great when you're short on time and perhaps a tad tired. The ingredient list is extremely short with only the mushrooms and green onions apart from the pasta of course.

As always, you can adapt the recipe to suit your tastes and add chicken, bacon or ham into the mix for a meatier version.

Whenever I order pizza, I always prefer the thin crusted variety - hence I thought of using roti paratha or roti canai, the ever-popular Indian flatbread as a base for a Thai flavoured pizza. This is so easy that it's hardly a recipe and is more of an idea as you can play around with toppings of your choice or even the sauce. For today, I used one of my favourite sauces from Yuen Chun that is always handy for a taste of Thai. This is extremely quick and easy plus of course delicious and looks quite impressive in my opinion. All you need are some toppings, mozzarella and of course some roti paratha.

I used frozen rotis - very accessible even if you live outside of Asia, most Asian grocery stores will have some of these in frozen form. If you like, you can substitute the roti with other flatbreads like naan or pita bread. I do hope you'll give this a try soon and have a great week ahead!
