Step aside, steamed beans! Grilling gives these protein-packed legumes a charred and slightly smoky flavour that is seriously addictive. Gather the pods by skewering them through the centre or on both ends.
In a season of sweetness, a gift of crunchy "cookies" is welcome. These rounds are especially well received when guests drop in for a glass of wine or special cocktail. (From the December issue "Gifts from the Kitchen.")
Five pantry staples plus a family pack of drumsticks equals one saucy, scrumptious supper. This is a weeknight superstar, ready in less than 30 minutes. Serve with rice and steamed green vegetables to fill up growling bellies. Dress up your drums with pretty sliced green onions and lime wedges.
Deep-frying is the reason to skip egg rolls, chicken balls, wings and ribs. Instead, satisfy your yearning for Chinese food with this salad full of flavourful noodles and crunchy vegetables. Precooked Chinese noodles are often used in this type of salad but because these noodles are coated in oil to prevent them from sticking together, their fat content is high. We use any long pasta or Chinese wheat noodles.
This flavoured oil will quickly become a kitchen staple in your household. Use it in place of plain oil when making salad dressings, drizzle it over your favourite noodle dish or brush it onto pizza crust, steak, chicken or fish.
