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… |

Shrimp and Tofu with Black Bean Sauce by John SpottiswoodWe're on a mission to create the ultimate black bean sauce. This recipe is getting pretty close I think. I took bits from a traditional Chinese recipe and combined those with another few bits that I got from a Martin Yan recipe.

Spicy Asian Grilled Pork Chops by John SpottiswoodThis is an old favorite that I've made since my days living in Chicago. We lived near the main Korean part of town (near Lawrence I think) and frequently ate Bulgogi. One day I bought some boneless pork chops and tried to create my own marinade. This one is close. I do it somewhat by taste, and you can play with the quantities a… |

Chicken Biryani by Nancy MiyasakiThis is a great Indian dish that I adapted from Cooking Light recipe. They recommend raisins which I leave out. I've also changed the proportions a bit. Our kids universally love this, despite the exotic spices. I generally serve with my Cucumber and Tomato Salad on the side. |

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 :) |
