A variation on Ethiopian Dorowat made with tofu instead of chicken. For a complete Ethiopian feast, make this dish with (other recipes from my book): - Lentils of Doom - Cabbage of Ostracism - Beef Stew...
A very simple and tasty quick throw together recipe that is delicious. I serve it over rice, with a nice spinach salad on the side, add a dinner roll and you have a quick elegant dinner. Great for when...
A simple, tasty recipe that tastes great. I prefer pork steaks to pork chops, but I imagine pork chops would work as well if that's what you have. I served them with jasmine rice. Directions are included...
This recipe comes from Sun Mountain Lodge in Winthrop, WA. My husband, who used to hate curry, has become a convert. This soup base is smooth and delicious and the texture of the chicken, wild rice and...
A smoky, delicious eggplant dish that works equally well as a side dish, as a salad or as a dip with crackers. This version is from the western state of Maharashtra in India.
This recipe is an ideal introduction to spicier food for young children or those who just aren't very adventurous! It can be whipped up in no time at all, and is very tasty and satisfying-even for those...
Spicy Panang Curry is a popular Thai restaurant staple. My favorite is a simplified version made with plain vegetables, but chicken, beef or pork may be added. Add steamed white rice and you have a complete...
This is a spice blend originating from Maharashtra in India. Goda' means 'sweet' and in this recipe the sweetness comes from the coconut in the mixture. It is not readily available in shops, so I make...
This is one of my family's favorites! Chicken, Lamb... Pick your meat! For quicker prep, I'll use a pre-cooked, plain rotisserie chicken from the grocery store and pull the meat. But this dish is delicious...
This is actually my roommate, Michelle's recipe. I request she make it at least once a week and I had to have the recipe for myself because I am soon moving out. All measurements are approximate as she...
Nothing like the taste of homegrown suckling pig that has self marinaded on the fruit from your own garden. Polynesian pork is in my opinion the best pork anywhere in the world.
From Recipe+ and their mid week meal feature. They also suggested you could use balti or rogan josh curry paste instead of korma and use pumpkin in place of kumara/sweet potato. Serve with basmati rice...
Pork tenderloin chunks are simmered until tender in the crock pot in an orange juice flavored curry sauce and served with brown rice garnished with fresh cilantro and chopped peanuts. Along with a side...

This is an AUTHENTIC Malay/Indonesian recipe and tastes absolutely beautiful with rice. Trust me! :) I got this recipe from hawkers in Malaysia--so it's a tad spicy. Chicken breasts may be used in place...
This Cantonese curry is very mild, colorful, fun and finger-lickin' good. Oh, and messy. Great opportunity to use those antique finger bowls (damp cloths in a basket will also do). If you want spicey-hot,...
Korma paste for Indian meals, be it chicken, lamb, vegetables or even soup. We often eat Indain so found this recipe, from Jamie Oliver, so we can make good meals from scratch. I guess it makes about a...
Another recipe courtesy of the great Madhur Jaffrey. I'm often looking for new eggplant dishes, and can't believe I haven't tried this particular recipe until today, it's really very easy. From what I've...
I recently fell in love with chole. Locally, menu dishes called "saag" are made with spinach, which is why I've listed it as Palak/Saag. I've played around with this, increasing the amount of spinach to...
A delicious curry where the rich flavours of the infused spices really make this curry stand out and the addition of yoghurt gives it a rich texture. It's well worth that little bit of effort. I always...
This is the recipe I came up with to make chicken korma to take to a potluck, based on the excellent korma recipe my husband uses. I wanted to make it in a casserole form that would be easy to just mix...
A friend of mine from college helped me make this dish, although I was looking for something more spicier, this turned out to be very tasty. He knew I liked curries and he being from Pakistan - who better...
I received this recipe from an old boyfriend's mother who was born and lives in India. I made a few minor tweaks though the recipe remains virtually unchanged. This curry is Ayurvedic in nature; well balanced...
Adapted from a recipe in "It Rains Fishes". Originally made with pork, tastes great either way. Try to use Thai basil, but any type of basil will do in a pinch.
When I was little, we had an Indian exchange student staying with us, so at a young age, I developed a taste for curry. As I got older, I learned a few recipes from British friends, based on the British...

Dhal is an easy tasty dish to make. If this is the first time you have eaten Dhal you might like to serve it with another Indian dish. You can eat Dhal with boiled rice, Indian breads or just by itself....
This is a lovely curry-like recipe but the beauty of this dish is that it doesn't use any exotic and hard to find ingredients. It also opens itself up to substitutions. You can adjust the spices to your...
This recipe is from Sunset Magazine's Food Processor Cook Book, now out of print. These days I generally reduce the salt and the soy sauce a bit, but have included amounts as per the original recipe. What...
A lovely lady who hailed from Trinidad shared this spectacular recipe with me many years ago. She was a coworker who brought this dish in for special occasions or potluck dinners. It was always the first...
I got this recipe from a Thai cooking class (taught by Meiling Dawson @ Orson Gygi) and modified it just a little. It's very versatile and delicious. Sometimes I use tofu instead of chicken or all veggies....
