Broccoli & Udon Stir-Fry
A fairly quick stir-fry sauce for udon noodles that can easily be adapted to vegetarian.
On the Side
Basil Tomato “Salsa”
I used “salsa” in the name of this recipe for want of a better word. Using “sauce” brings to mind pasta sauce and that is not what this is. It is like pico de gallo, but uses basil instead of cilantro.
All Hail the Humble Jicama
A jicama is a tuber and it’s the same basic colour as a potato, but that’s where the similarities end. Where potatoes have thin skin and starchy flesh, jicamas have thick, fibrous skin and lighter, juicier flesh, closer in texture to an apple.
Cumin & Split Pea Soup
This soup is dal-adjacent and heavy on the cumin…I was trying to replicate the dal soup at my local Indian restaurant. I didn’t quite get there, but this soup is still pretty damn good.
