Sweet and Sour MeatballsI served this at an informal dinner as mini-cocktail meatballs (1" size) but in a sweet and sour sauce, rather than barbecue, and everyone loved them. Next time they will be made into larger ones as an entree served with rice. I like the combination of meats in making meatloaf or meatballs, and ground turkey or chicken would be a… |

Asian Cabbage RollsThis recipe is adapted from one that appeared in Cuisine At Home recently. I made some modifications to the recipe as I did not have a couple of ingredients on hand. I used dried ginger; use fresh if you have it as it would have better flavor. You can make the sauce and filling early in the day, and build the rolls, but wait until… |

One Stir Risotto, The Non Carpal Tunnel versionAh, risotto. I love risotto. I also hate to make risotto because I hate all the standing and stirring. I also once had a terrible risotto experience when one of the squirrels I had been feeding (long story) fell down the stove pipe during a windstorm and got trapped in a duct in the kitchen while I was trying to prepare risotto for a… |

Baked Not Fried, The Alternative SamosaI love samosas. Crunchy, crispy filled with vegetable deliciousness. So when it came to the menu of foods for my birthday party last week, they were at the top of my list. What I don't like about samosas are the oily greasy part. Ok, I take that back. Like every human I love the greasy. That's half the fun. However, the greasy doesn't… |

A Personal Best Dessert!What can you say about a chef who says that he was trained in the kitchen by "innumerable thrashings"? That he is a perfectionist? That kitchen training can be tough? That his food is damn good? All of the above are true. It would have to be to survive and come out alive and cooking on the other side. One of the best things about the… |

Running Dog Dessert!Last night my husband chased an elusive Patsy though the fields around the dog park. He had me on the cell phone listening all the way. I was shouting, he was shouting, Patsy was running. Monitoring this whole dog rodeo via my iphone reminded me of watching Avatar last week. I felt as though I was back at the base station trying to… |

Hyderabadi Rice Pilaf Cooked In ClayWhen planning a company dinner I always like to go all out. I also like to have some dishes on the table that are relatively easy to set up and prepare. It's important to have a variety of tastes, textures and colors on the table in an Indian meal. My favorites are the ones that get off the stove top and tuck themselves into the oven… |
