A spicy tomato rich stir fry from ” Dominique’s Kitchen” by Dominique Woolf. She also has a new book out called ” The Asian Pantry” which I have added to my wish list. This is good accompanied with her Garlicky Green Beans.
A spicy chicken and lemongrass stir fry from Cambodia. The recipe is from Y Sok, a Cambodian refugee who came to the UK aged 37 after first migrating to the USA with her family. She runs Kambuja restaurant in the Marple area of Greater Manchester.
A fragrant and colourful lentil salad which will serve two to three as a main course or four to six as part of a mezze. The recipe is from one of my books of Palestinian recipes, ” Zaitoun” by Yasmin Khan. The cheese can be left out for a Vegan version .
This New Year I’m cooking my way steadily through ” Dominique’s Kitchen” by Dominique Woolf. I love her tweaks to traditional thai recipes such as using fish rather than prawns or chicken in this dish. If you want to use prawns instead, just add them after the onions and garlic. Serve with some rice.
This version of kleftiko originates in Symi and was shared by Rick Stein in ” Rick Stein: From Venice to Istanbul”. It would make a great dinner for Easter or indeed any other occassion when you fancy a feast.
I made this delicious Turkish salad recently to accompany a Persian Sabzi Kuku but it would traditionally be served with Cacik and Turkish bread. This version is from ” Persiana” by Sabrina Ghayour.
