Cilantro Shrimp by Nancy Miyasaki

This is a simple and absolutely delicious stir-fry shrimp dish. I've been looking for something easy and tasty like this. I have a new staple! I used a red chile sauce that we had on hand instead of the sambal oelek, and I added it selectively after stir frying to my husbands and my plates, but not to the kids plates. It was…

FRIED SHRIMP DONBURI (Ebi Fry Don buri) by John Spottiswood

You can make this dish with any type of Japanese fried meat (tonkatsu-fried pork, chicken-katsu, shrimp-katsu, etc.) Katsu is easy to make in large batches. So if you end up with leftover fried meat, you can use it the next day to make this delicious Donburi. Of course, this is good with freshly made katsu too. When I lived in…

Shrimp and Tofu with Black Bean Sauce by John Spottiswood

We'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. The result was not as sweet as Martin Yan's, but with just enough sweetness to fill out the flavor of…

Shirmp with Broccoli Stir Fry by John Spottiswood

This is a bit of a make-shift stir fry that came out great. I mixed some of the ingredients from my favorite chinese and thai dishes here, and the combination came out delicious.

Haemul Pajeon (Korean Seafood Pancake) by jason kim

It's been a while since we had pajeon (literally translated pa=green onion/scallions and jeon=pancake, thus green onion pancake) since our California days with unlimited makgeolli (fermented rice wine). But for the sake of adding to our recipe list, we decided to make haemul pajeon (seafood pancake) for tonight while the kids spend…

CRABMEAT AND CHIVES POTSTICKERS by Linda Tay Esposito

Potstickers are real easy to make. Part pan fried, part steamed, the dumplings have a crisp base and a soft top. In this recipe, we have filled the dumplings with crabmeat and chives, but you can also fill the dumplings with pork or chicken, or just a mushroom medley. The aromatic dipping sauce (adapted from Fuchsia Dunlop's "Land…

Fluffy Beer Battered Prawns by Blackswan

Are you a prawn lover like me? If you are, you’ll go crazy with this beer battered prawn recipe. Don’t drink alcohol? Simply replace it with soda. The use of beer or soda will make your prawns light & crispy. So let’s get started!

Shrimp and Tofu Donburi by John Spottiswood

I adapted this recipe from a mixed tempura donburi, substituting fresh shrimp and tofu without the tempura batter. The result is a healthier, and still very tasty, dish that our whole family really enjoys. You can use chicken or salmon in place of the shrimp, and it is equally delicious! Donburi's are wonderful cold weather food.…

Ginger-Hoisin Seared Shrimp by Nancy Miyasaki

This recipe for pan searing shrimp is tangy and flavorful. It's not as universally popular in our family as the Garlic Lemon Butter Shrimp I've posted. But it's a close second. If you're looking for an Asian flavor, this is yummy. I adapted it from a Cooks Illustrated recipe. The shrimp will come out brown and slightly caramelized…

Shrimp and Tofu with Bok Choy by Nancy Miyasaki

This 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.
