This tomato based curry may be modified for hotness depending on quantity of spices and number of jalapeno peppers used. It is a great favourite with my family - I make it about once a month.

Mongolian Meatloaf
I could not be more pleased with how this Mongolian Meatloaf experiment turned out. Since I couldn't decide whether to make meatloaf or Mongolian beef, I decided to try both things at once. The result is a tender meatloaf, sliced and crisped in a skillet and served with a sweet, salty, savory sauce, which, like the American Chinese restaurant favorite, Mongolian Beef, is not remotely Mongolian. But it sure is delicious, especially served over steamed rice with bok choy.
Chinese Chicken Soup
This Chinese chicken soup with ramen noodles is spiced with turmeric, ginger, and chile paste. A filling and delicious way to use leftover chicken.
Lumpia (Shanghai Version)
Lumpia Shanghai is a smaller, meatier type of egg roll that we Filipinos are very proud of! You could use pork, beef, or both. It's a very easy and yummy recipe that's great as finger food. We serve these spring rolls with sweet and sour sauce, soy sauce with lemon, or banana ketchup.
