Japanese Teriyaki Chicken by manabu masudaBuy a bottle of Teriyaki sauce? NO!! It is amazingly easy to make teriyaki sauce at home. All you need is soy sauce, mirin, and sugar. The key ingredient is mirin, which adds shiny look (teri). You can find mirin in Japanese, Korean or Chinese grocery stores . |

Yellow Split Peas with Vegetables (Dal Takari) by John SpottiswoodWow, this is such a wonderful dish and so easy to cook! The keys to this dish are the yellow lentils, fried potatoes, and cumin seed. You can change out the other vegetables (spinach is a nice addition as it adds to the creaminess of the dish). Make sure you fry the cumin seed and potatoes over sufficiently high heat that the cumin… |

Grilled Flanken Style Korean Short Ribs (Galbi or Kalbi) by John SpottiswoodI adapted this recipe from one in Bon Appetit and another from Chef John (foodwishes.blogspot.com). Chef John recommended blending an asian pear into the marinade to help tenderize the meat. I didn't have an asian pear, so I substituted a fuji apple and reduced the sugar slightly. I thought the resulting marinade, and ribs, were… |

Asian-Style Grilled Black Bass by John SpottiswoodThis fish is simply delicious. The flesh is like butter and the flavor is from heaven. I know that sounds extreme, but it's true. I was in Costco and the fresh fish counter had whole black bass. I'd never made it before, but the woman behind the counter said it is similar to yellowtail (hamachi) which is one of my favorites, so I… |

Rajma (Kidney Bean Curry) with Spinach by Chitra AgrawalRajma is a North Indian curry of kidney beans cooked with onions, tomatoes and spices. "Rajma chawal" which just means rajma and rice is the most popular way to eat this curry, kind of like the Indian version of rice and beans. I liken rajma also to chili since it's cooked in a spicy tomato gravy. Usually, it's not made with spinach… |

Vegetarian Asian Noodles by Keely LockeYou can add tofu, chicken, pork or shrimp to this dish, as well as any of your favorite veggies. You can substitute peanut butter or almond butter for the tahini, and if you want a spicier dish, you can add more chili-garlic sauce. For a more authentic dish, you can use Chinese egg noodles, udon, soba or dried or fresh ramen noodles. |

Asian Short Ribs Pressure Cooker Style by FoodiewifeI absolutely adore using my electric pressure cooker, because I can shorten most cooking times by 75%. So, if you don't own a pressure cooker, you can adapt this using an oven, or a slow cooker. Either way, it is the sauce that was so delicious. Best of all, this was not a lot of work to put together. Serve this with some sticky rice,… |

Honey Pork and Cashew Stir Fry by Hungry JennyA super speedy stir fry that is quick to prepare, but with a yummy orange and honey sauce to flavour it up. It probably tastes better (and even quicker to make) with egg noodles but I personally prefer rice :-) |

Asian Sloppy Joe Sliders by Bob VincentThis is adapted from a recipe that appeared in Cuisine At Home recently. I added red onion and used more cilantro than the original. It is an easy dish to prepare in a hurry for a weeknight meal. The water chestnuts and hoisin sauce add an Asian flair to the standard Sloppy Joe. I served the dish with Myra Byanka's Napa Asian… |

Ginger, Garlic and Basil Chicken Stir Fry. by Dana SalvoThis is a first for me! Blending Italian and Asian together. I've never done it before let alone made it. I know that Salmon has been done like this before, but I am unsure if chicken has. Bare with me on measurements here, my son was in the kitchen "helping mommy" on this one :) |
