HOMECOOKING WITH TERESA

This is a very easy to make recipe, and the duck is just delicious. The slaw works extremely well, the contrast between the sweetness of the duck and the little acidity from the salad dressing work wonders. It is important to start this recipe the previous day , so that the duck can marinate enough time to absorb the flavours. Loved it!

I really like spring rolls. However, they can be a bit too oily, and it doesn't agree with my stomach. I saw a recipe in one of those supermarket food magazines where they cooked the spring rolls in an airfryer, and decided to try a very traditional recipe to see if it worked. This particular recipe is made to celebrate Chinese New Year. It has been modified to make it easier. I have to admit that I really enjoyed the rolls. They get crunchy, light and delicious. I served them with an Asian style salad that we really enjoy and also with Hoisin-glazed chicken skewers . The combination was superb. INGREDIENTS Filling 5 Tbsp light soy sauce 2 tsp roasted sesame oil 3 1/2 Tbsp Shaoxing rice wine 1 1/2 tsp cornflour 450g centre-cut pork loin, trimmed and cut into very thin strips ( I used pork mince instead ) 6 dried Chinese mushrooms 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper $ Tbsp oil 1 Tbsp finely chopped ginger 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped 130g Chinese (Wombok) cabbage, finely shredde...

Our dinner tonight was just scrumptious. Love satay sauce and with the pickled carrot and apple salad was just delightful. I used turkey breast fillets and will certainly make this recipe again and again. The problem is that you cannot stop eating it.. 😊🤪🤤💛 Marinating the meat before cooking is the secret to these delicious turkey satay skewers. You can use pork, veal, chicken, lean rump steak or lamb leg steak if you prefer and it would work equally well. INGREDIENTS 50g (1/3 cup) unsalted roasted peanuts 2 Tbsp soy sauce 1 Tbsp lemon juice 1 1/2 Tbsp mirin 1 Tbsp curry powder 1 garlic clove, crushed 500g turkey breast steaks, cut into long strips 12 short wooden skewers, soaked in cold water for 20 minutes Peanut or olive oil, for brushing 160ml (2/3 cup) coconut milk 1 cup jasmine rice Pickled  carrot salad 2 Tbsp rice vinegar 2 tsp caster sugar pinch of sea salt 2 carrots, peeled 2 Lebanese cucumber, seeded or 4 celery stalks...

This recipe is a combination from two cookbooks: "5 of the best" by Valli Little and "spice market" by Jane Lawson. It is a very mild curry and very fragrant. I love curries, especially when made from scratch. It is very simple to make your own curry paste, and the result is much better than if using the paste from a jar. INGREDIENTS 2 Tbsp (40 ml) olive oil 700g boneless chicken thighs, cut into thin slices 1 large onion, finely chopped 2 garlic cloves, crushed 1 lemon-grass stem, outer leaves removed, quartered lenghtways 4 Tbsp green curry paste 1 3/4 cup (435 ml) coconut cream 2 1/2 Tbsp fish sauce 1 Tbsp grated palm sugar 1 Tbsp green peppercorns, drained 2 kaffir lime leaves, finely chopped 1 bunch thin asparagus, woody ends trimmed, halved To serve & garnish coriander leaves 1 fresh long red chilli, seeded and finely sliced steamed jasmine rice  lime wedges Green curry paste 1 tsp ground coriander 1 tsp ground cumin 8-10 fre...
