Feeling lazy?

Melon and parma ham

Want to blow some minds?

Want to lay something on the table as a sharing platter that looks simply amazing.

Want to watch every single face at the table do that “OMG!!!” face when they eat.

Read on my friends and read on quick as it is flipping so simple, but man oh man does this deliver.

Good ingredients make this better by way, so don’t scrimp get the best!!!

Take 1 Japanese Red Melon (from Yokohama) and cut in half. Use a spoon to scoop the seeds out and then cut in to ‘boats’. You want the boats quite thin, so you should get 8 from one half of the melon. Lay these on a serving platter.

Take 1 packet of Iberico cured ham. Slice finely to little strips and then simply arrange next to the melon boats of the serving platter.

Ta Dah!!!

Whack this bad boy in front of your audience and you will be praised and coveted – ha ha. NECTAR!!!

Father of 3. All my kids are mixed, with English-Japanese, and English-Filipino - a recipe in the making there. I have been cooking since a small lad, as guided by my Nan and my Mum - gradually that morphed through exposure to Thai cooking from a lovely lady called Da in Margate. I used to hang out in her restaurant and watch the techniques. So the 1+1= greater than 2 occurred - Mum/Nan/Da - off I went in to the world of Asian cuisine. Moving to Asia in early 2000's clearly has brought that on somewhat - we travel continually, and eat locally and therefore have exposure to more and more new things. I have lived my dream and written a cook book whilst here, an amazing experience and all for a good cause too as I raised a lot of money for charity. My blog is now hopefully turning in to book number 2. Watch this space. I hope you enjoy my passion.
