Chicken Chettinad (South Indian)
by Shila V. on March 25, 2013
I adapted this recipe from my father, who taught me this dish years ago. It's a spicy, wonderfully fragrant dish. The trick is to use freshly ground spices. The sauce is so good, it can be eaten with only rice or roti.

Beef Chow Fun (Restaurant Style)
by Ozzie on December 31, 2011
A classic, staple Cantonese dish. The essence of this recipe is the broad rice noodles, which should ideally be purchased fresh from an Asian market and used the same day. I prefer making this dish at home since the ones served in most restaurants can be on the greasy side. You can also add other vegetables like broccoli or green peppers. I adapted this recipe from Stir-Frying to the Sky's Edge by Grace Young. It has a lot of great, standard recipes for Chinese staples.
