Mike's Sweet Asian Dipping Sauce Mike's Sweet Asian Dipping Sauce
Finding myself out of my pre-fabed Asian sauce one evening - I created my own. Now, this is my only, "go to," sweet Asian dipping sauce.Our family regularly makes assorted fried Asian appetizers. With those, we always employ this sweet, savory and spicy dipping sauce. We dip and literally pile on those fresh, chunky, chilly contents on top of our piping hot, crispy fried appetizers! Everything from Seafood and Vegetable Tempuras, Egg and Spring Rolls, Crab Rangoon, Wontons, Pot Stickers, Korean BBQ and charcoal grilled Yakitori meats. It's fantastic drizzled over Jasmine sticky rice as well.I'll also marinate my Korean BBQ ribs, chicken, pork and fish in this same sauce when we're in the mood for a sweet, killer Asian kick! See examples of both chicken and fish at the base of this recipe. MMOBRIEN -

Chicken and Cabbage Simmered in Tomato Sauce Chicken and Cabbage Simmered in Tomato Sauce
I had a lot of cabbage that I'd bought or gotten from people to use up so I came up with this recipe. Since then it's become a family favorite.Because you dust the chicken with flour before browning and then simmering it the umami is held inside and the meat won't fall apart. By sprinkling it with some sake for cooking, the gaminess of the chicken is gone and it becomes very tender. Adjust the amount of salt and water depending on how much cabbage you use. I use about 1/2 a tomato can of water. Recipe by Makichimu cookpad.japan -

I've been making this rice gratin (doria) for some time. I always used to eyeball the ingredients, so I measured them properly for when my daughter wants to make it.When making the bechamel sauce, add the milk all at once and raise the heat to high, and just keep mixing and mixing until it starts bubbling! That's it! If you add cheese, the sauce will become richer! Leftover sauce can be used to make a special croque-monsieur for breakfast!! Recipe by Naomoka cookpad.japan -
