Nicely Spiced

Flavor and spice are my first thoughts when I am considering recipes. I will be looking for recipes that deliver flavor, spice and are healthy to boot. I love the spice combinations that are the hallmark of regional food from around the world.

Hearty winter soup, easy to make and perfect for a lazy day. Accompany with crusty bread for a full meal, or use smaller portions for lunch or appetiser.

This recipe makes heaps of serves, but can easily be divided by 2 or 3 for a smaller group. Keeps for several days with an even better flavour on the 2nd day.

This hearty stew is low in calories, high in protein, and easy to make! Add a dash of Cayenne pepper if you like it spicy! Served traditionally with Injera bread, but also tastes beautiful with brown rice or ladled over spaghetti squash. We buy Berebere at Cost Plus World Market. It can also be purchased online. We have included instructions to make your own Berebere if you are unable to find it. Definitely worth the trouble to make!

This salad travels well for picnics and work lunches, and keeps for several days in the fridge. Makes a great stuffing for pita pockets, or over cooked bulgur or brown rice.

Found on kaboodle: http://www.kaboodle.com/reviews/mesir-wet--spicy-ethiopian-lentil-stew
The author said, "This is a recipe that I've tweaked to perfection and everyone asks me to bring to any pot-luck or party. If you can find a market that sells berere (a spice blend) it will taste more authentic. You can find recipes for the spice blend online or see the recipe for substitutes if you are in a hurry. This is usually served with injera, a flat pancake-like bread. If you can't find that you could serve this with rice or pita bread. "

There are many different variations on this theme. You can add the eggs whole one at a time or you can beat them all together and pour each portion into it's own hole. Please
feel free to add your favorite herbs. If you like it hot add cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes. Saute a sliced sweet green or red pepper with the onions and garlic if you like peppers.

This recipe is an adaptation of SP user QUILTBUGI's keema. This is a low sodium recipe, feel free to increase or decrease the spices...can be served over rice or pasta....I like this without the pasta or rice...VERY filling.
If you don't want to use the marsala, I would substitute some balsamic vinegar or fresh lemon juice.

This is a typical noon-meal dish found all over Brazil. I make it the way many people do in the Northeast, especially in the state of Ceara. It's a poor man's dish that has been fancied up and served in many restaurants. I like to make it with no meat and serve it on our Meatless Mondays. I'm sharing my simple recipe and adding optional ways at the bottom to spice it up! Sprinkle a little ground cumin for some extra taste and add some chopped fresh cilantro on top before serving!

This is the meal my kids request most when we get together. I've developed this version based on curry in Japan, and my memories of curries my Mom made. It is a real comfort food, and warms the tum, best in cool weather, but my family loves it any time. It makes a big pot -the serving number is an estimate. It's basically a thickened spicy stew, so easily varied according to your tastes. We love it with lots of potatoes and carrots. Enjoy!

Obviously, this recipe can be made lighter by varying the thickening agent, but I personally don't wish to mess with it. Let me know if you have luck with it.

A sweet and spicy dish low in calories and high in flavor, to be eaten family style.

Note: this recipe is just my interpretation of the delicious dish I've eaten in restaurants. The restaurant version is much better, but since I don't speak Korean, this is my best guess as to how to make it.

We went to an Indonesian potluck and I searched for a recipe that I could make. This was what I found and OMG!!! It is AMAZING! I've tweaked it some and we love it! It is very vinegar-y, which is perfect for me, because I love vinegar.
