Grilled Beef Salad
Jul 27, 2010
The mixture of soy sauce and green onions gives lamb chops an earthy boost of umami, or savoury taste. Ask your butcher for frenched lamb chops (chops with the bones exposed).
Strips of beef, crunchy green beans and sprouts tossed with noodles make quick and delicious supper fare. For a mild version, seed the jalapeno pepper. You can easily double the recipe to serve four.
Chicken, squash and all the exotic flavours of a restaurant-style Thai curry mingle in this scrumptious slow cooker main. Serve over steamed jasmine rice and garnish with lemon or lime wedges to squeeze over top.
If spicy food is not your thing, reduce the curry paste to 2 tsp or use mild Indian curry paste.
We all know that summer is the perfect time to enjoy the freshest of in-season produce, but this year we’re thinking beyond the de rigueur sweet peppers and corn to ingredients native to Southeast Asia – kaffir lime leaves, galangal, tamarind and taro, for example. And since a herb, spice or vegetable is only as good as the dish it’s cooked in, we’re taking cues from celebrated Thai chef and restaurateur Saiphin Moore and presenting recipes from her first cookbook, Rosa’s Thai Café, that are sure to become essentials in your culinary repertoire all year long.
