Oatmeal Popovers / Beef Rendang / Napa Cabbage Soba with Spicy Peanut Sauce



Blog Post & Recipe: Oatmeal Popovers


Sure enough, the oatmeal in these popovers prevented them from rising quite so impressively, and most of them only had small pockets. They were, however, light and homey, and we ate them up with cups of tea


Blog Post & Recipe: Beef Rendang


It's rich, spicy, flavourful, and very Southeast Asian ... the essential ingredients besides the meat are the spices (onion, curry leaves, curry powder, turmeric, and chili pepper) and the coconut milk. All the other ingredients are fair game to the diversity of adaptations.

Put this spicy peanut sauce on anything -- a piece of shoe leather, marshmallows, or even the cauliflower I dislike so much -- and I will eat it. Put it on something I do like, and I will lick my plate clean. Peanuts and Japanese buckwheat noodles (soba) have a natural affinity, but this dish will be just as good with spaghetti, or whole wheat penne, or just about any type of noodle or pasta. One tip: don't stir-fry the vegetables for more than a minute.
