Beef and Oyster Mushroom in Oyster Sauce

Jul 14, 2005

Although oyster mushrooms have nothing to do with the dried oysters used to make oyster sauce, they are a lovely addition to the classic beef in oyster sauce. For extra spice, add a pinch or more of cayenne pepper to the beef marinade or increase the hot peppers. Green or red finger chilies are traditionally used in China, but jalape?are very nice, too.

Chimichurri Salmon With Barley Risotto

Jan 16, 2016

Searing is one of the simplest, fastest ways to prepare salmon fillets. It ensures that the outside gets crispy while the inside stays moist and tender. The key to achieving that golden crust: Bring your nonstick skillet up to a high temperature before adding the fish to the pan. For a more subtly spiced chimichurri, reduce the hot pepper flakes to just a pinch.

Baked Spring Rolls With Chili Garlic Dipping Sauce

Baked Spring Rolls With Chili Garlic Dipping Sauce

Spring rolls are always a big hit at parties, but they are usually deep-fried and high in fat. Baking spring rolls after brushing them with a touch of oil eliminates the need to deep-fry them, without sacrificing that lovely crispy exterior. You can find the wrappers in the freezer section of many grocery stores. Thaw according to package directions before using. Sambal oelek is widely available, but any hot pepper sauce will do.

Asian Hot-and-Sour Soup

Asian Hot-and-Sour Soup

Jul 14, 2005

Always popular in Asian restaurants, this soup is actually easy to make. Sweet chili sauce, lemongrass and fish sauce are now available in most supermarkets. Don't confuse traditional tomato chili sauce with the Southeast Asian sweet chili sauce. If you can't find it, you can use 1 tsp (5 mL) of the hotter Asian sauce or hot pepper sauce instead. Lime leaves can be found fresh, frozen and dried in Asian stores. Freeze any remaining fresh leaves, wrapped well, for up to eight weeks.

Filipino Chicken Soup (Tinola)

Filipino Chicken Soup (Tinola)

May 12, 2010

Tinola, a favourite on Filipino dinner tables, is made in many variations. The most traditional vegetables used in this soup are green (unripe) papaya or chayote squash, but other green squashes and melons are used, too. Zucchini makes a fine substitute; just make sure to take out the seeds and soft core. The soup is traditionally finished with herbal leaves, such as those of the native malunggay tree, or with chili leaves, the small tender leaves of hot pepper plants, which are tasty but not hot; watercress lends a similar flavour. Use a free-range chicken; if you buy the poultry at an Asian market, you get the head and feet, too, which add lots of extra flavour to the broth.
