Spicy Coconut Chicken Curry by John SpottiswoodThis is more of an Indian than Thai curry, and has a condensed, pungent sauce. It is unusual and really wonderful. Curries are hit or miss with our kids, but they all loved this one (except for the peas...which meant more for me!) We served this with a brown/white rice mix and steamed brocco-flower. The sauce on this is so pungent… |

Quick Meat Curry by John SpottiswoodI've been looking for recipes from Indian-American moms who love the rich flavors of Indian food but who need to get meals on the table quickly. So I'm really enjoying the book Saffron to Sassafras written by the Indian Women's Association of Louisiana.in Baton Rouge. There is nothing original about this simple recipe except the… |

Butter Chicken - Chicken Makhani by John SpottiswoodMy kids love Chicken Makhani (Butter Chicken) and Chicken Tikka Masala whenever we go to an Indian buffet. So we tried replicating it at home. It's not a difficult dish to make once you have all the ingredients, and the results are delicious! It also gains flavor in your refrigerator over the next few days, so it's great for… |

Shrimp and Tofu with Bok Choy by Nancy MiyasakiThis is a tasty, Chinese inspired dish that our family loved. Ladle it over brown or jasmine rice on a cool evening. My recipe has double the tofu of the original recipe, and I will probably use even more tofu, and less shrimp, the next time around. Feel free to adjust the quantity of each based on your tastes. |

SHANGHAINESE LION’S HEAD by Linda Tay EspositoThey call it Lion's Head because the meatballs are ye big with manes of soft, tender napa cabbage...looking like a lion. Seriously, in Shanghai, the meatballs are the size of a tennis ball - let's call that a quarter pounder meatball. Slowly braise or steam to get a tender, melt-in-your-mouth meatballs. If you have a small… |

Korean potato side dish by John SpottiswoodI always love these sweet and salty braised potatoes when they are served along with kimchi and various other side dishes at korean restaurants. I've always wanted to make them, and grilling Galbi gave me the perfect opportunity. I started with a recipe from maangchi.com and substituted a mix of sugar and mirin for the corn syrup… |

Braised Beef Short Ribs with Ginger and Star anise by Farrell May PodgorsekBeef short ribs slowly braised in a soy, sherry, star anise liquid. The ribs are meltingly tender and delicious. I served the ribs with Israeli couscous to absorb the tasty sauce and sauteed greens. The ribs are best when made a day or two before you plan to serve them. Modified from a recipe by Leslie Revsin |

Pork and Shrimp Pot Stickers by A.L. WiebeThis is my version of a really delicious fried dumpling. I have found many recipes for pot stickers over the years, and it seems that no two are alike. I have made adaptations according to what I have on hand and what I like. Also, I use my handy dandy dumpling folder-upper-thingy that I have pictured here. It cost me 50 cents at a… |

Lamb Curry by Maria FerrariThis is Jamie Oliver's friend's Peter's lamb curry. Indian food usually seems so indulgent but besides the 1/4 T butter per serving there's not really anything bad for you in this, and you can throw in all sorts of veggies near the end. You can make the curry sauce one day ahead of time. I use lamb shoulder if I can't find shank.… |

Dakbokkeum Tang (Spicy Chicken Stew) by jason kimWe have been making dakdoritang (aka dakbokkeum tang) for quite a while now, but it has become a regular in our household for the simple reason that it's easy to make for a family of four, packs a lot of intense flavors (and spice), and provides all the nutritional benefits that you could ask for in a dish. Since this is supposed to… |

Chicken Tteokbokki w Gaednip (Chicken Rice Cakes w Perilla Leaves) by jason kimWe made some chicken tteokbokki (spicy rice cake) by default the other night when our fridge lost power.

Gamja Jorim (Korean Glazed Potatoes) by jason kimGamja jorim (Korean glazed potatoes) is another banchan (side dish) that we made recently that is appealing for its sweet taste and ease of cooking. It can either be made a little sweeter or spicier (with more red pepper flakes) so it appeals to both kids and adults alike (and foreigners too). Also, making them in large amounts allow… |
