Sambal Oelek Roasted Chicken
Sambal oelek (or ulek) is a Southeast Asian spice paste that mainly comprises red chilis, salt, and vinegar. This recipe results in a tasty chicken dinner.
Miso Chicken
Making a compound of unsalted butter and the salty, fungal deliciousness of Japanese miso paste is a surefire way of adding immense flavor to a simple weeknight meal. Here the mixture is spread over chicken thighs, which are then roasted to golden perfection. But you could easily use it on salmon or flounder, on corn or potatoes. The recipe calls for white miso, which is more mild than the aged version known as red miso. But you could certainly use red for a more intense result.

Savoury Asian Oatmeal with Soy Vinaigrette
What I miss about winter are the cozy nights and warm, hearty meals -dad’s fried tofu and pork cracklings served with soy vinaigrette and mum’s huge batch of lugaw, a Filipino rice porridge, which I admit going seconds for and okay, maybe even thirds at ungodly hours. I love it so much that not even the wall-penetrating summer heat can stop me from satisfying my craving for Filipino comfort food! This led me to this humble oatmeal bowl, and in doing so also lessened the amount of work, ingredients and time without sacrificing the flavours reminiscent of the tangy soy vinaigrette and savoury lugaw. Oh, and if you’re worried about missing the crunchiness of fried tofu and pork cracklings, you can simply add fried garlic like I did!
Asian-style kale salad
Super quick and tasty way to serve up kale. Great hot or cold. I could live on this!
Panko Fried Tofu

Red Bean Paste (for Mooncakes)
A simple recipe for this classic Asian dessert ingredient. If you can use this red bean paste in something other than mooncakes like steamed buns or mochi.
Vietnamese Lamb
Though far less glorified than rib chops or legs, lamb shoulder is explosively delicious and juicy – also, cheap. Like the shoulders of pigs and cows, it is a hardworking muscle rippled with intramuscular fat, which makes it ideal for stewing or braising. But the shoulder’s not that hardworking, which keeps it tender enough to be subjected to the shorter blasts of heat typically reserved for more elegant cuts. Here it's marinated in a Vietnamese marinade overnight, then broiled or grilled into fantastic submission.
Colcannon Inspired, Spicy Asian Kimchi Sweet Potato Salad
This recipe results in something sweet, spicy, and savoury. This sweet potato salad can be made vegan with vegan kimchi (either homemade or store-bought).
Parsley Miso Pesto
I had a bunch of parsley but no nuts or Parmesan for my pesto recipe. What I did have was a tub of white miso which replaced both the nuts and cheese in pesto.
Miso-Glazed Grilled Scallops
This simple and sophisticated treatment is perfect for grilled scallops, but also works well on chicken or pork. One note on preparation: Err on the side of undercooking. Take the scallops off the grill before they’re opaque all the way through. If you undercook a scallop, it will still be delicious, but if you overcook it, it will get rubbery.
Seaweed Salad With Scallops
Sweet and briny scallops need little more than a splash of oil and a pinch of seasoning to be delicious. Because they’re often enjoyed raw, it’s important to purchase fresh, high-quality bivalves. Many store-bought scallops are soaked in a phosphate solution that plumps them up with water (therefore bumping up the price), so it’s important to look for scallops that are labeled “dry” or “dry-packed.” A waterlogged scallop doesn’t sear well, and a phosphate-marinated scallop may taste like soap, especially when consumed raw as they are here. In this 10-minute recipe, the scallop takes center-stage while seaweed and cucumber provide texture, and soy sauce and sesame oil add depth.
Asian Barbequed Salmon
It doesn’t seem to go together. Asian flavors such as soy sauce, rice vinegar and sesame oil, with fish. But it’s a winner because salmon is a full flavored fish and can handle these bold marinade ingredients. This dish is not barbequed in the traditional way on the grill either. The addition of brown sugar gives the fish a barbequed glaze and the secret is to cook it in a hot, dry pan with no added oil or butter. No added fat and full of flavor score one for the home cook!
Teriyaki Chicken Skewers
A quick and easy summer recipe inspired by the tasty chicken kabobs freshly grilled at the farmer's market in San Luis Obispo, CA.
Steamed Eggplant With Spicy Peanut Sauce
Chinese Chile-Scallion Oil
This formula, adapted from the chef Barbara Tropp, yields both a fragrant, fiery oil and a brick-red chile sludge. They work as well in a wok as they do in a bean soup or meat braise, on cold noodles, or to enliven subpar takeout.
