Stir-Fried Thai Chicken with Cashews and Basil

Stir-Fried Thai Chicken with Cashews and Basil

Jul 14, 2005

Serve with: Rice and an oriental green vegetable, such as Chinese broccoli, snow peas or bok choy In Thailand many kinds of meat and seafood are stir-fried simply with chilies and aromatic Thai basil, but Italian basil makes a fine substitute. In Thailand this dish is usually fiery hot with chilies; we have tamed it here, but you can adjust it to your own taste. If raw cashews are unavailable, use roasted cashews and omit the skillet-toasting; add to pan 1 minute before sugar and lime juice.

Judith Comfort's Crispy Oven-Fried Chicken

Judith Comfort's Crispy Oven-Fried Chicken

Jul 14, 2005

We asked Anna Comfort, 10, about her favourite food made by Mom, Judith Comfort, a Nova Scotia food writer and author of Spuds! Dulse! Fiddleheads! (Nimbus, 1986). Anna says, "I like her chicken better than Kentucky Fried because it's not as salty, but it's still very crispy and not too spicy. My mom lets us eat it with our hands. But it's sticky, so plan to use about 10 napkins. It's an easy recipe I can make myself. I like mashed potatoes and peas to go along with it." Younger sister, Lillian Ruth, 7, would add a crunchy salad made from greens gathered in the Comfort family's large ocean side garden.

Cinnamon Lamb Chops with Agro-Dolce Eggplant

Cinnamon Lamb Chops with Agro-Dolce Eggplant

May 13, 2009

It is hard to believe that this entire meal for 6 can be prepared in under an hour. The ingredients in this main course and side dishes are completely Canadian (including the Canola oil), but just like our country's unique cultural mosaic -- they have been flavoured with exotic spices and other wonderful additions which highlight Canada's tolerance and respect for people of other lands. The lamb was reared in Ontario and the eggplant can be grown in almost any Canadian garden. I sometimes serve the lamb with chick pea fries and chuckle when I remind my Indian in-laws that Canada and Australia are now growing garbanzo beans, too.

Eastern Canada is one of the main sources of sustainable snow crab in North America, with the bulk of the snow crab being harvested from the frigid waters of the Gulf of St. Lawrence. These crustaceans are often sold precooked and frozen in clusters of legs and arms. To thaw the clusters in a flash, place them under running cold water for about 10 minutes.
