Chinese New Year
Dear J
I'd thought we should celebrate Year of the Tiger with some Chinese Food. Here is what I am thinking -
- Drunken Chicken (plus dipping sauces)
make ahead. Rasamalaysia recipe or Epicurious recipe - (Chicken) Potstickers
freshly fried just in time. storebought. - Hot and soup soup
make ahead, heat-n-serve - Black Bean Spareribs
make ahead, heat-n-serve - Bokchoy & shitake mushrooms
freshly made - Red Bean Soup
make ahead, drizzle with coconut milk before servering
Rule of thumb - # of people = number of dishes, then plus 1 soup and dessert. Variety of meat - chicken, pork, and a green things. Hrmph, No beef may be problematic. Now I know there was much discussion about sweet and sour pork and egg drop soup... and EAST COAST Chinese food. If we do not fit the sweet and sour pork with red #5 in this time, we will figure out another time ... soon. Oh, I also want to pick up some New Year candy, wanna go to 99 Ranch with me?
