Dinners for two: Italian: Veggies and an antipasto plate with a Bagna Cauda dipping sauce. For the sauce, olive oil heated up with thinly sliced garlic and anchovies. Just a low heat till the anchovies melt. Tuna Pasta: Heat a little olive oil till ripply. Add salt, garlic, pepper flakes, stir until fragrant. Add a can of high quality tuna packed in olive oil. Heat through. Toss with cooked pasta and a little of the pasta water. I like to top this with salad greens. Meditteranean: How about home made tzatziki sauce. Minced cucumber drained and slightly salted. Let sit in a colander for about 10 mins. Meanwhile place yogurt in colander lined with cheese cloth. Rinse the cucumber, place in yogurt with salt, pepper, crushed garlic, squeeze of lime juice, and cumin. Serve with grilled meat, sliced cucumbers, tomatoes and minced onions. Not sure where to put this one. Lightly flour chicken breast. Pan fry in a little oil. Remove chicken and drain most of the oil out. Toss in some capers. Fry for a second. Add white wine, chicken broth or oil, a pat of butter and the chicken back into the pan. Serve over rice or pasta with a side salad. Asian: Fish sauce: Vietnamese fish sauce, water, sugar, garlic, vinegar (or lemon juice). Nuoc Nam. Serve with either rice noodles or rice with plenty of bean sprouts, herbs (such as basil and mint) and grilled meats. works great on grilled pork chops.
