It's been pretty chill in Melbourne these days, so we decided to cook something warm and nice meal. It was Corned Beef in buljong with vegetable and Dijon Mustard.

Stockholms Kök 2009/3/26 Salmon Pansanella
We didn’t have a class last 2 weeks and Damien came back from such a stressful world! We started from catching-up talk even though I work with him everyday, but anyway it was so good to get the class back on track.Today’s menu is Salmon Pansanella as he requested something easy and quick to cook, still tasty!! A short introduction what he’s gonna do today. He looked quite comfortable in the kitchen with apron and whisk after 2 weeks blank.
Pansanella is an Italian salad with crispy pan-fried baugette, so he tried home made dressing tonight. I have to say this,, the recipe of this dressing is champion! This is absolutely my favorite ever!
Thanks for the nice meal for tonight too, Damien and Roger.
I got a funny feeling tonight when we were having the meal on our sofa. Watching the first footy match in this season on TV and having meal all together, then I thought “Oh, this is like my older brother coming over to our place”.. After Damien left Roger also admitted “Tonight was like dinner with young brother”
!!Viva, regular visitors!!

3rd cooking class!
From today Damien joined us who missed last week and tried his first cooking ever! So more photos of him are attached to today’s post to prove a fact that actually he is in a cooking class to his friends who don’t believe it.
OK, here are our guys!
“Look at me! I’m cooking! I’m actually cooking!” and already-very-professional-look Kosti.
Seriously chefs are chopping everything and preparing all ingredients from scratch.
Of course they are using a pan too. Damien! it won’t catch fire on you, a bit more close to the stove!!
We cooked prawns with spicy sauce tonight and they cooked in separate pans on their own responsibilities from very begging to the end. Both dishes are cooked from exact same ingredients, but Kosti’s dish was much hotter and more soy sauce flavor, Damien’s had more sourness in. Surprisingly Food always reflects its taste with how you are feeing and who you are.
Anyway check this excellent smile! Yes, he can cook yummy yummy prawn mean!

Second cooking class!! We finally started actual cooking from tonight. The day before we gave them a shopping list for tonight including some of Chinese ingredients which must be never recognized in their entire life. But 3 guys grabbing the shopping list went to a supermarket together and did their best to buy ingredients on lunch break!!
The menu was “Sour and Sweet Stir Fried Pork Neck with Rice”
Kosti is actually really good cook, he seems to know basic of cooking and how to chop.
Chop..chop..chop.. Roger is right hand side and Kosti is left, so it’s bit tricky.
Stir..stir..stir with a little bit smile.
It was a very quick meal, spent more time for chopping than actual cooking process with heat. But taste was very very nice, pork was juicy. Thank you very much for your nice cooking, Kosti!
If you go to Asian market or meat shop, there is pork neck available in very reasonable price. It’s worth to try it for BBQ!!

The first lesson wasn’t really first lesson. Roger and two guys starting today hadn’t met before, so today was more greeting and introduction by watching and tasting Roger’s cook. And discussed what they are looking at, what they can cook and can’t.
Anyway first meeting is always bit nervous for everyone, but sitting together, having same meal and drinking often work really well to break ice. Especially tonight we had absolutely common topic, “Food!”
We cooked Chicken Penne with Mascarpone Cheese sauce for tonight. they were standing next to Roger and tasting flake salt, Mascarpone cheese, basic soup before adding salt or anything in,,, It’s so good to see people more getting into food and finding new taste.
They seem to be looking at more quick simple meal (we have one more class with 2 Japanese guys focusing on Pastas). So we may try bit Asian cuisine plus fish meal.
Their goal is cooking for our company Christmas Party end of this year! ( isn’t is? Kosit, Damien!)
Anyway OZ guys finally took first huge steps into the KITCHEN!! Good luck from next week.

Stockholms Kök
Well, we started to open a cooking class from last week, which was totally unexpected.
The our new challenge was suddenly begun from a day when one of my colleagues grabbing newspaper with cooking page on came to me and said “Chika, what does this ’Brunch beans’” mean? I think I need to start cooking, but even don’t understand the first sentence of this recipe!”
I looked around myself and realized actually there are many males willing to lean food, but cooking class is far too expensive. So I talked with my husband about this, then he just said
“Alright, if they can bring in food, I can teach them”
Actually we are living in standard town house with very ordinary kitchen, but we’ve got plenty knives, aprons and all equipments, Yes We Can! Yes We Can Have Cooking Class!!
So,, cooking class named “Stockholms Kök” Stockholm’s Kitchen was opened.
The class concept is to feel like cooking at friend’s place and eat, drink happily, in the end you will get a little bit cooking skill and food knowledge as well,
I lesson up to 2 participants, no time limit - take you time until you enjoy and feel full.
Basically there is no menu, cook whatever you want, whatever you want to learn.
Start from where you are, what you can.
Cost is $60pp excluding ingredients.
Anyway, so far all the participants are males who cook little before but keen on cooking!
It would be very interesting,, Cook with Guys !
I will update the class onto this blog as much as I can.
Step by step, do what we can do from small things..
