Hokkaido Shima Hokke dinner & Eggplant in Japanese sweet sauce recipe

Dinner from few days back

*Shima Hokke from Hokkaido

(Stripe Patterned Hokke from Isetan Hokkaido fair.

Lots of oil in the fish. Super yum!)

*Eggplant in Japanese sweet sauce

*Vegetable soup

*Rice

I bought a toaster few weeks back.

Cooking is very limited when you can only use a stove and microwave.

I need to grill, toast and bake things!

I wish I had an oven at my place but I don't...

So I decided to buy a toaster instead.

It's small, but not bad!

I can grill fish like today, make veggie roasts, semi dried tomatoes,

bake sweet potato cakes etc etc...

I can cook a lot more things with my new toaster.
