Hangtown Fry with Parmesan and Fresh Herbs
My recipe variation on Hangtown Fry contains Parmesan cheese and fresh herbs. It is finished under the broiler, where the egg-oyster mixture puffs up like a cross between a frittata and a soufflé. I get the best results using a cast-iron skillet. It's important that the oven be hot before you place the skillet under the broiler.
Fried Rice with Ginger, Hoisin, and Sesame
A twist on the average fried rice - a culmination of some of my favorite Asian flavors thrown into a common dish. This recipe is very easy to adjust according to personal tastes; you can make it about as strong or as mild as you prefer. Compliments Teriyaki beef well, or can be easily modified into a stir-fry meal.
