Coconut Curry

Coconut Curry with Potatoes, Carrots, & Onions over Jasmine Rice. Curry is good, but it is always better the second day. I found this coconut curry recipe online and followed it for the most part. I tripled it, didn't add as much sugar (will add a lot less next time), added red cayenne pepper, and added some water. I love it when I can taste more of the spices, so this dish was good, but not great.

Organic Sesame Chicken

Using some essential sauces in Chinese cooking (soy sauce, vinegar, and sugar) I made this awesome Organic Sesame Chicken. I made up my own sauce: shoyu sauce, vinegar, organic agave, organic sesame oil, garlic, ginger, sesame seeds, an Asian spice mix, and a little bit of cornstarch for a marinade. Then after an hour I cooked the marinaded organic chicken drumsticks in the wok with onions. I added garden fresh red & yellow peppers and zucchini & squash. Put it over jasmine rice and it is delicious.

包子 Baozi

My boys love to eat 包子 baozi, so our friend from China brought some over. They are steamed stuffed buns filled with veggies and/or meat.

土豆丝 Tou Dou Si

This was one of our favorite dishes in China. 土豆丝 or shredded potatoes. Our friend from China also made it and brought it over today. So good!

Wild Caught Alaskan Salmon Teriyaki

I used this teriyaki marinade recipe for our wild Alaskan caught salmon. Served with organic rice medley, and garden fresh veggies.

Oatmeal & Peaches

Oatmeal mixed with coconut oil and our neighbors fresh peaches. The peaches are amazingly good!
