I like most coconut-based curry dishes, but I’m still learning to appreciate the more earthier, spicier kinds. My favorite is Japanese curries because they are so silky smooth.
Lately I’ve been venturing to other food regions of the world. A co-worker introduced me to lamb korma, which is yummy Indian curry made from ginger, coconut milk, cumin and a bunch of other spices.
Do you ever get bored eating the same ole tired food, day in and day out? One of my go-to people to consult is my BFF Lindsey. Company chicken is one of her husband’s favorite recipes so I wanted to give it a try.
I definitely needed a hardy meal after battling through all the last minute Christmas shoppers! I’m always surprised that traditional Filipino meals are super easy to make. Somehow I always think it takes hours of marinating and cooking. This version of chicken afritada is the real deal, unlike my version using oyster sauce.
Making your own chicken broth has so many benefits. First of all, it’s cheaper than buying cans or boxes from the store. Also it’s a very thrifty way to use spare chicken bones if you de-bone your own chicken. Also you can add your own flavor, such as roasted garlic.
Soy-yu chicken, chicken cooked in sweet soy sauce and ginger sauce, is one of my childhood favorites. I’m fairly certain that my dad just made this recipe from scratch, but I think he was inspired Hawaiian cuisine.
Its super easy to make and all my friends who have tried it loved it!
