05-22 Teriyaki tempeh skewers

These are great, especially as a side to Asian dishes when you want a bit more protein.
Next time you go to a bring-your-own-meat bbq,
this is an easy option besides the usual burger or hot dog.

Simply slice some tempeh into wide and thick wedges
slather it in Teriyaki sauce (I like Annie Chun's, it doesn't have msg, etc. )
Place on skewer and roast under your broiler, turning halfway or on the barbie
It only takes 5-10 min depending on the size.

Nordic curry

I always add the apples, sometimes skip the onion. Leftover roasted root vegetables tasted great. Regular supermarket yellow curry powder is perfect. Serve it over rice or with naan. Be generous with the salt and pepper. Melt 4 T butter over medium heat in a sauté pan (wide, shallow). Sprinkle in 4 T yellow curry powder and stir to combine. Add 1-2 tart apple (Granny Smith), cored and chopped or cubed & 1 onion, finely chopped. When apples and onion are softened, sprinkle them with 2 T flour . Stir to evenly coat all. Add 1 1/2 c heavy cream OR coconut cream , slowly, a bit at a time, whisking constantly to keep lumps at bay. When smooth, add in 1 1/2 c milk OR coconut milk in the same manner. Allow to begin to bubble and thicken before serving. Season gen...

Pasta al limone

Basically it's Lemon Spaghetti. I needed a side dish for a friend's seafood lunch and this was perfect. When I served at cousins beach week, it also got rave reviews (and competition for the leftovers) so it's worth sharing here. I found the recipe by Michelle Doll at Delish.com. What I love about this recipe is it is quick and easy but really it's the technique. Its similar to an Alfredo sauce but because of the way you put it together, it is very evenly distributed and doesn't feel heavy. Tastes great with fish and chicken, so far. Cook 12 oz. spaghetti in generously salted boiling water. While waiting for the pasta, slice of a couple thin strips from a lemon for garnish (if desired) Zest 1 lemon into a large sauce pan (the spaghetti will go into it later) and juice the lemon , setting the juice aside. Add 1/2 c. heavy cream and 4 Tbsp. unsalted butter to the lemon zest and let it melt over low hea...
