Vegetable Soup, Chinese style:
Pork rib bones for the stock, bok choy, celery, carrots, ginger.
Simple and yummy - great start for December.

Pan seared rib steaks with Montreal Steak Spice.

First time making Chicken Dopiaza -
Chicken and Onion Curry, Used one 3 lb chicken and
6 onions, cumin, coriander, tumuric, garam masala, chili, tomato paste,
plain yogurt, canned tomatoes, and I threw in fresh curry leaves.
The recipe called for serrano peppers, but all I had were jalapeno
peppers.
Cilantro was added along with the peppers at the end.
A do-again recipe.

Chicken Dopiaza platted with basmati rice and green beans.

Basmati Rice with jeera (whole cumin seeds) and whole peppercorns.

Inspired!
Adapted from Chef Michael Smith's Thai Curry Chicken and rice noodles.
I subbed the chicken with Jonah crab Claws, Manila clams and shrimp.
Here everything is bubbling happily, infusing everything with the aromatics.

Thai Curry Seafood and Rice Noodles!
Lemongrass is often at Superstore.
If you can't get kaffir lime leaves, check the freezer at Living Delight.
I use Thai Kitchen coconut milk - cheapest at Walmart.

...
Ryan the Rib-Man's pork ribs!
Fall-off-the-bone, finger-licking delicious...
.
....
I added sauteed green beans, corn, and pan-fried potatoes
with Italian seasoning and fresh rosemary.
.
...
Honey glazed Cornish game hens stuffed with fried rice.
Side of mixed vegetables.
Oh... I DO miss using my Big Easy, but it is a bit too cold tonight
:-(
I haven't made these for a long time.
I remember making 24 of these for one of Bill's surprise birthday parties.
He decided he wasn't feeling well so called into work (at Strathclair Collegiate) sick.
I had to glaze all those hens for the supper party that evening,
so I kept doing them four at a time, making him think that's what
WE were having for his supper with his parents.
I had the rest of the hens hidden all over the house once they were glazed.
Thank goodness I remembered how many I had prepared,
or they might still be some fossilized in the farm house. LOL!

...
Pork Loin with Cherry Sauce:
I substituted pork loin for turkey.
That might have contributed to the "not a success" category ;-)
.
...
Butter Chicken with a couple of stray shrimp.
Love the fresh curry leaves I added to the Nana brand Butter Chicken
sauce.
