Corn Potage Soup (a la Curry House!)

-
My boo LOVES corn potage soup at Curry House so I decided to try my hand at it. Very minimal amount of ingredients and very quick to make! Made the mistake of buying frozen sweet white corn and it came out a little too sweet. Next time will try just regular corn. And also set some corn aside (before you puree it) to give it a little more texture. My imitation of Curry House's Corn Potage Soup Ingredients: - 2 tbs unsalted butter - 1/2 medium onion, diced - 2 tbs flour - 2 cups frozen or fresh corn - 1.5 cup chicken stock - 1.5 cup milk - salt and pepper to taste - green onion for garnish 1. Heat butter over medium heat. 2. When butter has melted, add diced onion. Cook until unions are translucent and then turn heat to low. 3. Add flour and stir to mix - will look a like paste 4. Slowly add chicken stock and stir while adding to prevent lumps 5. After all the stock as been added, turn heat to medium high and bring to boil 6. Once broth is boiling, add corn and

Rau Muong Xao Toi (Stir-fried Water Spinach and Garlic)

-
Image
There are a couple variations of this recipe. Rau muong (water spinach) is a simple vegetable dish that goes great with fried fish or meat. In Vietnam, this was once a staple vegetable of the poor. Now, it's present in many Vietnamese cuisines as a garnish, side dish, or main ingredient. No matter how you decide to stir fry your water spinach, you must start with blanching the rau muong. Food is blanched to soften, or to party or fully cook it, or to remove a strong taste. Blanching is the process in which you plunge food (can be done with fruit, veggies, pasta) into boiling water and then remove after a brief interval. Food is then submerged in iced water or washed under cold water. Placing it under cold water effectively haltens the cooking process. Ingredients: 1 big bunch of water spinach 2-3 cloves of garlic Oil Red bird's eye chili pepper (optional) sugar bot nem ga fish sauce (variation 1) maggi seasoning (variation 2) Blanching the water spinach 1.
