I found this recipe a while back, on my first visit to the beautiful vegetarian Indian food blog, Saffron Trail. And despite never having tasted it, I got a real craving for it a couple of days ago!

It’s basically a noodle dish with a nice bit of steamed veg… and a gorgeous orangey, gingery, peanut butter dressing! Yum. I mixed the dressing up, and I could have probably eaten the lot of it with a spoon! (Peanut butter soup!!) I think this dressing would go amazingly well as a dipping sauce for chicken too.

While the original recipe calls for smooth peanut butter, I only had crunchy at home. While I probably will try it with smooth when I get a chance, I really liked the extra texture that the crunchy peanut butter added.

This is a great dish, quick and relatively healthy. I made up a batch in the evening and had it for dinner, then took the leftovers to work the next day. You must do this<…

This is an overdue post. It was one of the recipes featured when we landed the cover gig for the Trib’s wedding issue. It is also, one of my favorites. Greg only makes them on occasion because every time he makes them he has to make a bajillon and hand wrapping a bajillon mini tamales isn’t fun for anyone; however, it is VERY worth it.

Think standard masa tamale only filled with luciously creamy goat cheese and gently sauteed wild mushrooms. They are so moist and succulent, it makes you wanna smack yo’ mamma.
Uh, yeah, there good.
I wish I had a shot of the inside, but propmtly after the below picture was taken, every one at the photo shoot tore through them. Then we realized, we hadn’t finished the shoot. Ooops.

The process is easy, but if you’re making them for a group, make more than you would normally because they will be devoured.
