Wed, 08 Jan 2003 20:15:15 -0500

Dad has forsaken many a meal outside, just so that he wouldn't miss out in this meal at home. Try it, and you will see the wonderful effect it has. :) -- posted by KitchenManiac

Leftover Roast Beef Spicy Salad

Wed, 08 Jan 2003 20:16:12 -0500

Had way too much of roast beef one time, and whipped this salad up to make up for the amount of meat I had consumed, and the lack of vegetables in a diet. It worked so well, I have started making extra roast beef, just so that I could have heaps of leftovers for this wonderful salad. -- posted by KitchenManiac

Crispy Duck Rolls With Pomegranate Dipping Sauce

Tue, 09 Dec 2008 23:00:18 -0500

Duck confit - seasoned duck leg quarters slowly roasted in duck fat - is fully cooked and can be found in the meat section of specialty grocers. Look for egg roll wrappers in the international freezer section or near the tofu products. Pomegranate concentrate can be found in many markets and Middle Eastern specialty stores. If plating the Crispy Duck Rolls with a green salad, double the dipping sauce. If there is extra sauce, you can make vinaigrette - whisk in about half the volume of fruity extra virgin olive oil, then season to taste. -- posted by Jess4Freedom

From the book, Chinese Cuisine by Huang Su-Huei. I'll be posting more from this book. The pictures are amazing and make me crave Chinese so badly! This is really good! I tried it years ago before I was really used to tofu and I loved it. -- posted by Recipe Junkie

Favorite Pork Fried Rice

Mon, 14 Sep 2009 17:49:46 -0400

Needed a recipe to use up my leftover Recipe #238438, and I ended up creating my DH's new favorite meal. He likes to add Thai chili sauce (called Sriracha), but I like mine without. We prefer our fried rice without eggs, but you could certainly scramble a couple in the corner of the pan at the end of cooking and then mix it in to the rice. -- posted by KissKiss

I'm finally able to cook this fabulous Beijing dish at home! If you worry about those calories, feel free to use less oil, although the potatoes should be covered by it... -- posted by Granddaughter 1

Beijing-Style Pork & Shrimp Jiaozi (Chinese Dumplings)

Tue, 22 Dec 2009 12:14:06 -0500

I got this recipe from my old land lord in Beijing. He was a "lao Beijing ren" (native Beijinger), so his recipes are very authentic. He decided that my roommate and I needed to learn all the Beijing dishes, and thus took it upon himself to teach us. My friends and I like to have dumpling parties, where we get together and wrap dumplings and talk, which makes it not as labor intensive. -- posted by Spicy Little Sister
