« A Most Wonderful Review of Asian Tofu |Main| Abandon Your Fears of Frying: Deep-Fry Tips »
August 29, 20137 Versatile Asian Grilling RecipesWhere did the week go? I’ve had a full load of phonemeetings and planning this week for upcoming work like the banh mi photo shootnext week as well as an educational video project (I’ll let you know about this sooner than later). And, we’ve been making plans for a holiday trip to Asia.
The weekend has suddenly appeared and in the United States,it’s a long 3-day weekend holiday. For many folks, it’s the last summer hurrahbefore kids go back to school, the last opportunity to enjoy food cookedoutdoors. If you’re in need of inspiration, here are some from past VWK recipeposts. I’ve added some notes and ideas for you to change things up too.
Chicken thighsare my favorite all around cut of chicken. It’s what I most often buy at thebutcher counter. Use boneless, skinless ones to cut down on work and calories. Or, bone your own. Keep thingson the bone (buy leg-thigh quarters) for the most succulent results.
ThaiGrilled Chicken – Use deboned thighs, if you like. It’s pictured above.GrilledLemon Basil Chicken – Vary the herb according to what you have on hand. Itjust needs to be super fresh. Combine herbs, if you like. Grilled lemongrass pork, goat chops, and lemon basil chickenLemongrass issold fresh in many supermarkets and is easy to grow. Summer is its peak so gowild. Freeze trimmed lemongrass for the cooler months.
VietRestaurant-Style Lemongrass Pork – A favorite of VWK folks and CHOW.com.Try the marinade on chicken.GrilledGoat Chops with Lemongrass and Galangal – When you can’t get goat, uselamb. Try this as a kebab. Ground lamb would work well for grilled patties.
Grill a one-dish mealby cooking a whole fish or sliced meats and serving them with lettuce,herbs, and a dipping sauce. It’s a one-dish meal to be eaten with hands.
Fine rice noodles and grilled beef, Viet-Korean pork belly wraps, Singaporean grilled fishSingaporeanGrilled Whole Fish – Let people pick the bones themselves. Serve lots ofbeer.GrilledKorean-Viet Pork Belly Lettuce Wraps – A cross-cultural meal that’s hard tobeat if you love rich pork.Fine Rice Noodles with Grilled Beef (Banh Hoi ThitBo Nuong) – A favorite Vietnamese nosh dish. More beer but maybe enjoy itover ice for extra authenticity.
Have a great weekend! What are you going to cook this weekend?
