This is my own recipe that I have done many times and everyone that has tried it seems to love the many flavors that it delivers. Pork is thinly sliced and stir-fried with bell peppers, celery, and Brussels sprouts. As you are using all fresh herbs there is no need to season with salt or pepper as this will take from the natural flavors.

Fried Kimchi
Kimchi is a popular Korean side dish featuring fermented cabbage. Other vegetables can be used and applied with the same fermentation process to produce a similar taste and different textures. In this recipe, I fry some kimchi to completely alter the taste and texture for a smoky doppelganger! It is so great with Korean barbeque and with plain old rice. It is certainly one of my favorites and so easy to make. Enjoy hot or cold! Sprinkle sesame seeds on top as a garnish.
Asian-Inspired Ginger Dressing
Whenever I go to an Asian restaurant, I love the house salad dressing. This recipe was inspired by that, but it is not an exact copy. It also is NOT an authentic Asian recipe.
Pad Kee Mao
Pad kee mao translates to "drunken stir-fry" in English. These Thai drunken noodles are one variation of many such dishes that are commonly hawked by street-side vendors in Bangkok. The drunken description comes from the fact that it originated in late-night revelers' kitchens after stumbling home from the nightclubs in the wee hours of the morning.
