Korean meatballs and banchan
Koreans seem to like to serve their food with a lot of little extra bits and pieces of goodness that they call banchan, and because of this I feel like I could pretty easily get along with Korean people… except for maybe one or two but I feel that is the case no matter where…

Grilled sweet and sour pork skewers
Sweet and sour pork. This is the grilled version though. Some might call it the healthy version because it baths in nary a deep fryer, but I just call it the “wanted to try it grilled version” or even “the extra tasty grilled version”. It has what it needs to be pretty bloody reminiscent of…

Grilled asparagus (kinda like elote)
So yeah. We were getting about the idea of making something for dinner and we decided it was going to be Mexican themed. There was asparagus to be used and my mind was thinking about elote (Mexican grilled corn), so asparagus elote (sort of) it was. Cooking the asparagus quickly allows the flavour to come…

Spit roasted duck with stone fruit sauce
A lot of people fear cooking duck which I think is kinda fair enough because it can be a little difficult to cook a good one. A shit one, dry and rubbery, is piss easy for anyone to put on the table, but that perfect duck takes a little more skills and smarts. I’m here…
