Sambar
South Indian sambar with toor dal, potatoes, tomatoes, and tamarind in a spiced lentil broth finished with a mustard seed tempering. Serve with rice, idli, or dosa.
Chicken or Pork Peanut Sauce
A creamy, relatively low-fat recipe using yogurt and peanut butter. Serve it with whole grain pasta or cut the carbs and use just veggies for the base.
Healthier Nasi Lemak
Considered the national dish of Malaysia, nasi lemak is a breakfast staple in Singapore hawker centres, but is also recognised as one of the least healthy breakfast options - no surprise since lemak means 'fatty' and refers to the rich white rice cooked in coconut cream. When served with fried chicken, the dish really does pack a calorific punch. However, with a few tweaks and substitutions it is possible to create a healthier version of the dish to enjoy on weekends at home with family.
Beef Chunks Cooked in Coconut Milk

Frijoles Rancheros
Frijoles rancheros with pinto beans, crispy bacon, jalapenos, beer, and tomato paste baked until bubbly. A smoky, spicy Mexican-style bean casserole.
Nuoc Cham (Vietnamese Chili Sauce for Dipping)
Nuoc cham Vietnamese dipping sauce with fish sauce, chili, garlic, vinegar, and lemon juice. The essential condiment for spring rolls, pho, rice bowls, and grilled meats.
Jumbo Prawn Curry
This curry is a delicasy in the Indian state of Goa.
It has plenty of coconut and some chilly which go very well with prawns.
Persian Apricot Chicken
This recipe takes it's inspiration from the Parsee tradition of using fruit in cooking, and is deeply rooted in the Persian ancestry of many Indians and their food.
Crispy Beef in Chili Sauce
Sichuan-style crispy beef in chili sauce, double-fried until shatteringly crisp and tossed with garlic, dried red chilies, and a sweet-savory glaze. The takeout favorite made better at home.
Flank Steak with Goat Cheese on Toast
