Oyster sauce chicken afritada is a dish I created while I was a poor college student. I was feeling a little homesick and was craving traditional Filipino chicken afritada. It hits close to the mark, but the salty oyster sauce makes it more of a Chinese dish in my opinion.
Sometimes things don’t work out they way you expect. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing!
I originally planned on making an omelet but I wasn’t able to flip it. I think this happened because there there wasn’t enough protein (egg yolk) to form a solid enough base. In the end, I was able to save it and it was super tasty!
Thick and packed with flavor, split pea soup with chunks of ham is one of my favorite comfort foods. This is especially if you have left-over ham. This recipe makes enough for a large family.
The Basics
- Cooked ham cut into chunks – You’ll need at least 2 handfuls.
Beef stew is one of my dad’s favorite American comfort foods. There are pre-made seasoning packets that you can buy, but if you have red wine, tomato paste, bay leaves and beef broth, you don’t need all the extra sodium!
The Basics
- Beef chuck roast – Cut into hearty 1″ inches.
Lamb cassoulet is a French white bean and lamp stew. When it comes to lamb, I usually like to season it with rosemary, salt and pepper and grill it. However, I got some lamb shanks on sale so I thought it might be a good time to try something new.
