Get out your mortar and pestle. This is really fun to make and goes well with veggies, especially grilled eggplant.

Ingredients:

4 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped
1 TB Vietnamese Sweet Lemon Curry Powder (www.savoryspiceshop.com)
1 TB sesame oil
1 TB soy sauce

Put the coarsely chopped garlic and curry powder in a mortar and pestle and grind until it starts to form a paste. Then add the sesame oil and mix well. Finally, mash in the soy sauce.

I coated some eggplant with this and grilled it for a few minutes. Great dish.

Curry Tomato Salad

Simple. Easy. Delicious.

Local tomatoes are in season and the possibilities are endless. Here is another great use of the Vietnamese Sweet Lemon Curry powder from Savory Spice Shop.

Slice some tomatoes and toss them in:

1 tsp Vietnamese Sweet Lemon Curry
1 tsp sesame oil
1 tsp soy sauce

That’s it.

Peach Cobbler

This is my peach cobbler. It is really delicious, thanks to the delectable peaches from Rancho Durazno on the Western Slope in Colorado.

Slice 3-4 peaches into thin half-moon-like slices. Preheat an oven to 350. For the cobbler topping:

1/4 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1/4 cup oat bran
1 tsp baking powder
pinch of sea salt
1 egg
1 TB walnut oil
1/3 cup maple syrup
4 TB plain rice milk (I’m sure you could use real milk, but I never have it in the fridge, so I used homemade rice milk)

Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl. Mix the wet ingredients in another bowl. Mix the wet into the dry, pour over the peaches, and bake for 30 minutes. Try to enjoy in moderation.
