Dragon shrimp is one of my favorite snacking dishes and I decided to name it after my grandfather because he taught me how to make it. This is a great dish for Chinese new year or any Asian themed party especially as an appetizer. Feel free to substitute peeled and cleaned shrimp for the shell and head on shrimp used in this recipe.

Sausage fish stew
When I told a friend I made fish and sausage stew, she looked at me a little funny. I can see how the idea of fish and sausage together caught her by surprise, but the two proteins work really well together in this dish. I will post the photos sometime this week. Continue Reading »

This chicken in white wine and sour cream sauce is flavorful, tangy and satisfying. It’s a good dish to serve over white or brown rice.
Life is still hectic but I hope to post more frequently starting next month. All my traveling should be done at the end of August and I hope to have more time for cooking and blogging. With my busy schedule I’m not cooking as much, but when I do get a chance to cook I make a big batch so it will last a few days. This dish was such a hit, the love of my life ate it for lunch and dinner three days in a row. Continue Reading »

To make it a complete meal, I served it with brown rice and steamed fresh green beans. This meal is healthy, light and easy to make. To add more flavor to the dish, cook the rice in vegetable stock and add some peas and corn. Continue Reading »

Pork and celery dumplings
The love of my life has been on a dumpling kick and I made another batch, but this time with pork and celery. Most of my friends prefer dumplings fried or steamed, but we love them boiled.

All you have to do is freeze them on a flat pan dusted with flour and once the dumplings are frozen, place them in freezer safe bags for storage. Continue Reading »
