The first time I had this dish (in a dingy, basement restaurant) in Edmonton, I wasn’t quite sure how to eat it. I didn’t know then that the best way to enjoy the big bowl of noodles was to pour the dressing over the noodles, dig into the bowl with chopsticks and toss the vegetables …

When I think of Montreal (Canada), I think of family, French and…amazing Vietnamese food. I have very fond memories of eating in tiny family-run Vietnamese restaurants that serve nothing but pho - a tantalizingly aromatic soup seasoned with star anise and caramelized onion and filled with rice noodles, mint, basil and a tasty assortment of beef …

So…hello again! Here is my first post in AGES – and it’s for a recipe that may not look very pretty! But monggo (or mung bean stew) is a classic Filipino dish that is one of my favourite comfort foods. When made well, it’s thick and creamy with hints of smoky flavour from smoked pork, …

This is an easy, no fuss version of the Italian classic, Spaghetti Carbonara. I really like this recipe because it tastes authentic – but it takes less than half an hour to make! The first time I had this wonderful pasta dish was in Rome. It was the hottest part of August in Italy, and …

This is my go-to recipe when I need to make a tasty meal but don’t have a lot of time to peel, chop, and fry in stages. It’s usually a dish I make on Saturdays when our house is full of friends and fun – and I don’t want to disappear into the kitchen for …

This is a favourite of our many house guests: tocino, Filipino-style bacon. Filipino breakfasts are amazing. There are few meals I love more than a good plate of garlic fried rice, fried eggs and sweet buns (pandesal) with one or more of the following Filipino breakfast meats: Filipino sausage (longanisa), Filipino bacon (tocino), Filipino breakfast …

Pad Thai is amazing. It’s delicious. Sweet, salty and sour all at once, it’s been a longstanding favourite of ours. We tend to be quite picky as well; we prefer the home-cooked variety of Pad Thai that is only found in independent, small family-run restaurants (rather than chic but westernized versions in larger, slickly decorated …

Pork with rice – staples of our Asian diet. And this delightful little dumpling is a microcosm of that diet – marinated minced pork rolled in rice and steamed until perfect! I started using this recipe back in 2003, when I wanted to make full use of the large bamboo steamers we bought in Chinatown. …

This is the recipe that everyone always asks me for. It’s also the one recurring dish that finds its way into most of our buffet dinner parties – and it’s always the first to disappear as well. Our guests have given the dish names of their own: sticky chicken, General Tso chicken, and “that yummy …

How many awesome dishes can be made with only 5 simple ingredients? I haven’t found many – but this is definitely one of them. Five ingredients and three easy steps – what a find! My mother taught me to cook this stew when she visited us in England last year, and it has become one …

Making this stew was a bit of a risk. It had been a very hectic week, and we were expecting a group of house guests (friends of a friend) to arrive Friday evening. The problem was that on Friday, we going to be at the Royal Ascot ALL DAY. So…what to make for a family …

This is a guest post written by my sister Christina (http://www.myspace.com/pianistsdaughter), who lives in Montreal and – like us – is always on the hunt for a good bite to eat! In this post, she shares a quick and relatively inexpensive recipe for temaki (hand roll) sushi. Enjoy! Thanks Christina! Montreal has a lot of …
