Pork and Asparagus Stir-Fry
May 11, 2010
My inspiration for this dish was actually my boyfriend. He swore up and down that he absolutely hated pork tenderloin after his first time having it, so I set out to change that. I knew that he loves stuffing and gravy, as well as pork chops with apple sauce. This gave me the idea to incorporate all those flavors together to make something that would change his mind about pork tenderloin. When he came home from work he took one look at the final product and he immediately wanted to try it, and when he did he LOVED it! He gushed all night about how delicious it was and it has become a staple recipe in my house.
The subtle mushroom flavour, the crunch of fried peanuts and the flavourful golden shallots make familiar rice special.
This lightly spiced inland chowder highlighted with cheese is a great venue for sweet late-summer corn.
Don't toss those Swiss chard stems after you've used the leaves; try pickling them, instead! Serve the pickles over grilled steak or chicken, as a burger topping or along with a cheese and charcuterie platter. The sweet yet salty flavour is pretty addictive.
A comforting, slow cooker soup recipe using fresh flavours of lemongrass and coconut milk.
Move over, potatoes and carrots – this Asian-inspired veggie side is a dinner-time hit.
Lemon wedges, a bottle of hot sauce and plenty of napkins are the only accompaniments needed. These are also delicious served cold for lunch the next day.
