of the Asian Persuasion...

Last night's dinner. Turkey larb in butter lettuce wraps with darling little jasmine rice towers.
The Laotian original is made with pork, but turkey seemed just as good to me. Ground turkey, honey, lime and lemon juice, red chile, green onions, soy sauce, fish sauce, cilantro, parsley, and mint. That's it. It was pretty awesome.
I went with turkey last night because I was making this tonight!
Japanese braised pork belly served on rice with a raw spinach salad. I just braised the belly in the Multi-Cooker with soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, sugar, a red chile, some green onions, and star anise. The braising liquid made the most fabulous warm dressing for the spinach. I could eat a bowl of just that. And maybe I did that very thing after dinner. You don't know.
