Enough with the frivolity -- speculations about The Prince's motives ("It's all for sale! Visit my Website!") talking to or about animals. This site is supposed to be about food, so let us take up our cudgels and get back to work.
"Steam Kitchen" by Jade Hair Tuttle Publishing 160 colorful pages -- tools, food and her family $27.95
You can visit steamykitchen.com for more, including how to use a wok, tongs instead of chopsticks to fish things out of the heat of the wok, but for now, a "Hah! Trader Joe! I don't need yer stinkin' shrimp apps!"
FIRECRACKER SHRIMP
Prawns
Spring roll wrappers
Chili sauce of your choice
Cut the wrappers in half diagonally and "butter" one side with the chili sauce. Peel the shrimp up to the tail and make a couple of slits in the inside curve of thes shrimp -- you want them to lie flat. Roll the prawn tightly in the wrapper and deep fat fry them.
Trader Joe's are healthier because they're baked, but a chintzy spritz of Pam (or equivalent) and then baking them might work just as well on the do-it-yourself-ers.
I was delighted to find this because I love The Elephant Bar's garlic noodles. They're offered as a side for something like $4 which is a good price. I ate a lot of my serving and still had enough leftover for dinner for both of us the next night as "the starch." Now I can save $4 (gleefullly)
GARLIC BUTTER NOODLES
7 oz. dry egg noodles, cooked and set aside
3 T butter
1/2 cup chopped green onions
3 cloves garlic, finely minced
2 T brown sugar
1 teas. soy sauce
1 T osyter sauce
Melt the butter in your wok, saute the garlic and green onions. Add the soy, osyter sauces and brown sugar, stirring well. Add the noodles and toss in the sauce over a medium heat.
