And it’s true, it was sometimes hard to tell if the discomfort I felt after enjoying an aggressively large helping of ice cream was due to the portion size or the fact that my body just isn’t really that well-equipped to handle dairy. S0 I got to thinking about how to make soy milk. It seemed like the rest of the food industry was hearing these dinner table conversations, and soy milk and then almond milk blew up as an alternative to any “got milk” tendencies Sarah and I had grown up with....

Watching all the Korean BBQ-eating, bibimbap-mixing, and jajangmyeon slurping made it pretty inevitable that I would try my hand at K cuisine, too. A Chinese-Inspired Korean Dish When we started hanging around Beijing more often, I was surprised to find that this dish is actually a Chinese dish first and foremost, and a beloved Beijing staple at that. When it comes to the world of Asian food, one often finds that certain dishes have numerous iterations depending on whether you’re talking to a Chinese person, a Korean person, a Japanese person, a person from Malaysia, etc....

Co-Stars: Lobster & Sticky Rice But you might have some questions about this dish. The one that I asked myself: is the lobster or the sticky rice the true star of this Lobster Sticky Fried Rice dish? Of course, the answer is both. But I will say, that having made “fried rice” dishes with glutinous rice in the past (Sticky Rice with Chinese Sausage), the lobster really pushes it over the edge!...
Please don’t ask me where he coined this term from because I have no idea and don’t even think it’s a thing. The point is though, he likes these lentils.

Often found on the menus of dhabbas and restaurants all around Pakistan, served on special occasions and get-togethers, Karahi is just the epitome of good Pakistani food. I’ve spoken about how dear Karahis are to me and my memories of family dinners growing up here in my Chicken Karahi recipe. In essence, a Karahi for me was the Desi equivalent of Sunday roast. This recipe is a follow-on of that Chicken Karahi recipe - the red meat equivalent which is equally as loved (and perhaps even preferred) by many....
In my humble opinion, mutton korma wins over chicken korma any day because the extra long cook time means all the flavours infuse into the meat more, the flavours become richer and more intense and everything melds together so so deeply.

It was fantastic—sweet with a dense but moist crumb that had the perfect surprising hint of booziness and one of the best bundt recipes I’ve had....
Posted Feb 26, 2020, Updated Apr 23, 2024 Roasted carrots are so delicious, that when they come out of the oven I have to harness all my self-control so I don’t devour the whole pan before dinner. I call them “vegetable candy,” even though the only sweetness comes from the natural sweetness of the carrots (also try these honey roasted carrots). This oven roasted carrots recipe pairs well with any main dish, especially balsamic pot roast or homemade mac and cheese!...
