Cooking
I know, I know. We've been on a real Asian/stir fry/Donna Hay kick. But, we love the flavors, the ease, and of course Donna!
This recipe was yet another quick one: grated ginger & garlic go into a sizzling hot skillet, followed by the beef (or Morningstar Farms Meals Starters, faux beef-style) & brown, a couple of minutes. Next, red pepper & soy sauce, cook a couple more minutes. Add rice noodles (here's where we differed: instead of adding a few teaspoons of stock earlier, we just let a bit of the noodle water get in the pan), toss & serve. No cilantro for us, because we don't think food should taste like dish soap.
Good flavors, wonderful texture. Fast, easy & filling. Perfect weeknight meal.
We're cranking up the flavor for this month's Blog Party; it's time to Spice it Up!
Hope to see you there.

- Vietnamese Steak Sandwich
It was a sandwich. Southeast Asian flavors. Matt & I thought it just 'ok', but Alex loved it. We love how much Alex goes for Asian flavors. He & I, of course, were eating a vege-fied version of the recipe; using Morningstar Farms Meal Starters...
- Smoky-hot Ginger Chicken Stir Fry
This recipe from Food & Wine caught my eye; doesn't that just sound good? Marinate the chicken (or for us these days, Quorn), heat your wok & fry up a bunch of chilies. Remove, get the wok hot & shiny again, then cook your chicken (or whatever...
- Satay For Two
Tuesday's dinner, which was supposed to be Monday's, (are you still with me?) a quick and easy Beef (and Fake Beef) Satay. Strips of beef (or Morningstar Farms Meal Starters) marinated in brown sugar, soy sauce and ginger, then quickly cooked...
