These potatoes are slightly green, slightly spicy, and beautifully fragrant with roasted garlic. Good compliment to meat and fish cooked with ginger - soy marinades. The leftovers make great potato pancakes!

Sweet, Hot Mustard Slaw
I enjoy a wide variety of coleslaws, but this recipe for sweet, hot mustard slaw may be my fave. The combo of hot and sweet has a proven track record for pleasing palates. Salting and massaging your cabbage first (aka "cassage") will help draw out water, sweetening the flavor, and yielding a flexible yet still crunchy texture, which I think is lacking in many other "chop and mix" recipes. Garnish with chives and chive blossoms.

Pan-Fried Chinese Pancakes
A delicious brunch snack that can be found in many Chinese breakfast shops. Its various names include 'cong you bing,' 'jiu cai bing,', 'scallion pancakes,' 'green onion pancakes,' etc. This particular recipe is passed down through my mother's family, and brings back many good, yummy memories! Can serve with hot-sour sauce, or your favorite Chinese sauce.
