Steamed Cod

Season a cod fish steak with salt and white pepper. Place in a shallow dish and place the dish in a bamboo steamer over a wok. Steam until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

Fry up some chopped garlic until brown and crispy. Make a sauce from soy sauce and sesame oil. Mince up some cilantro and green onions. Remove the dish from the steamer, sprinkle with fried chopped garlic, drizzle on the sauce, then garnish with the cilantro and green onions.

Pork, Eggplant, and Shiso Soup

Our neighbor made a great tasting soup for us that we had to get the recipe for.

Saute some sliced onion in a stock pot. Add minced pork and brown. Cover with water, add chopped tomatoes and bring to a simmer. Add in sliced eggplant and stir. Season with a bit of fish sauce.

Chop up some shiso (perilla) leaves and add them to the soup. Serve hot. So good, one bowl is not enough.

Tom Yam Soup

Tom Yam soup with prawns, shiitake mushrooms, cauliflower, broccoli, carrots and onions. This mouthwatering soup has it all – sour, spicy, salty, sweet…ummmmm! Of course you also have the soft mushrooms and carrots, plus the crunch of cauliflower and prawns. It is an all-around meal.
