Savory hot That dish in minutes? Possible.

A popular Thai street food, chicken basil (pad kra pao gai ผัดกระเพราไก่) is so easy to make, it will only take minutes. This recipe is an example how well balanced Thai cooking is. A balance between spicy, sweet and salty.

“Another way you can really elevate the flavor of this Thai basil chicken recipe is by using a mortar and pestle to hand grind your garlic and chilies. A garlic press would also do the job well. Unlike mincing, grinding really releases all the juices and oils of the chilies and garlic and it brings out an extra depth of flavor, which in return makes the entire dish of chicken basil more vibrant, garlicky and spicy.” According to EatingThaiFood.com

Indulge in this Chinese Chow Funtastic Veggie Recipe.

 This game-changing Chinese recipe will definitely make you ask for a second or even a third serving.  I know this for a fact. You can’t wait to sink your teeth into the crispy goodness of the vegetables within this dish.

“For this vegetable chow fun, I decided to make it with eggplant–lightly fried to give the dish a richer texture. Plus, when coupled with shiitake mushrooms, it rounds out the umami flavors. Which reminds me, if you’re a vegetarian and have not discovered vegetarian oyster sauce yet, you need to go out and get some!” -according to The Woks of Life

Very rarely do I get really excited about a new recipe but using pork belly for Chinese BBQ pork is genius.

This Chinese BBQ pork recipe is pretty authentic as well, not that they are serving it in China but Americanized Chinese food goes back to the 1800’s and has a pretty cool history. I may go over it more in depth on another post.

Back to using pork belly for BBQ pork. I wish I had thought of this, pork belly is the perfect conduit for all this marinade and spice. So if you really want to impress some dinner guests or you family you have to try this!
