This hot and spicy stir-fry comes together faster than ordering takeout. It's also a great way to use up any veggies lingering in your fridge. Serve it over your favourite noodles, brown rice or whole grains.
Our Big Batch Mac 'n' Cheese Sauce is the star of this dish. Top with basil and serve immediately.
Pasta soaks up this tasty peanut sauce, so don't worry if it looks watery; it will thicken as it sits. If you're taking your salad to go, stir in a couple of teaspoons of hot water to thin out the sauce right before you dig in.
Fish sauce has a strong taste that mellows slightly as it cooks. If you're not used to it, add it in small quantities, until desired flavour is achieved.
Mild curry paste makes this quick Indian dish kid-friendly, but feel free to use medium or hot paste for a kick.
This dish is made with ingredients most people keep on hand in the refrigerator and pantry. Evaporated milk gives the sauce a creamy consistency without all the added fat of whipping cream.
All you need is a few minutes of start-up time to make this stock because the stove does the rest. And those few minutes will be more than worth it because, as Patricia Becher of Richmond, B.C., says, "I used to think that making soup was difficult but I have discovered that a good stock is the whole trick."
