Pork Szechwan
This is an easy version of a Szechwan, although I don’t think it is particularily authentic. It will work well with almost any protein. When I make it, I leave out the red pepper flakes and because of that, the kids love it. For a more authentic flavor, the red pepper flakes are [...]
Paella Cous Cous Salad
I know this title doesn’t make much sense and sounds foolish, but this is a phenomenal dish. Clearly it is not going to be as full flavored or robust as a true Paella, but all the flavors are there, and it is really very easy to make. Nice one dish meal that can scale well [...]
