Curry 'Lamb' Stew

The lamb was minimal...one tiny piece flavored the whole batch. This stew consisted mostly of vegetables. Garlic, onion, okra, red bell pepper, potatoes, carrots, tomatoes. On rice. My mom used to make a very similar stew but with celery instead of okra and without bell peppers.

Siu mai



Siu mai with shrimp, mushrooms, spinach, and green onion. This would be better substituting cabbage for spinach. The sauce is soy sauce, sugar, and chili-garlic paste.

White Pizza

...with basil, rainbow chard, arugala, caramelized onions, and garlic. The greens were all fresh from the garden. Crushed chiltepins add a bit of fire.
