The favorite one I make is Thai curry. I don't have a picture, but since I'll sometimes gift the curry paste as a stocking stuffer, I include with it the recipe below. The essential ingredient is the Maesri curry paste, which can be found in Asian markets for $2 or $3 a can, or on Amazon.

Thai Curry, basic recipe for 2-3 people​

Mix half a can of coconut milk with half a can of curry paste (red is my favorite, but green (slightly hotter), yellow, panang, or masaman are also good; the latter are all slightly less hot. The remainder of the coconut milk and curry can be mixed together and stored in the fridge for up to a few weeks. Half a can of curry paste does make the sauce moderately hot; you can omit some of the curry if desired. If you are making a larger batch, use the full cans of coconut milk and curry paste. This dish freezes well.

Cut up two chicken breasts into bite-sized cubes. Stir fry in oil; adding a bit of sesame oil improves the flavor. Remove from heat when almost cooked through.

Cut up two onions and two large bell peppers into bite-sized squares, and stir fry in oil. (I like to use one green, one red or orange, for color) Adding some sesame oil here also adds to the flavor.

Add the chicken, and the coconut milk/curry mix, and heat the mix through. You can add water if needed to thin the sauce. When almost done, I like to add a handful of unsalted peanuts or cashews.

Serve over rice.

Variations:

The chicken can be replaced with pork, beef, shrimp, scallops, or tofu.

Additional veggies can include green beans, carrots, mushrooms, baby corn, scallions, potato cubes…almost anything

Adding torn up cilantro leaves just before serving is a nice touch.

I love Korean food.. best I ever had was in a little side street place in Chicago. It was -14°F and we walk down to this place and the line is out the door and down the street. The place was so packed they had to hand us our order over the top of peoples' heads.

Korean pancakes.. so good! One of my favorites in Tulsa does Korean seafood pancakes which are the same thing but with a lot of seafood mixed in. (if you know, you know)

Galbi (thin sliced short ribs, marinated and cooked really hot) so, so good!

 

[Central PA Cowboy]

Dim sum

 

[letthemeatrest]

For a dish.. a good bowl of pho

runner ups that are or aren't dishes... lao sausages (thai is similar but no where as good as laos), beef chow fun, dim sum, thai curry, thai drunken noodles, thai beef salad, korean bbq, and i can't order chinese take out without getting a combination lo mein

I make (made) a lot of Thai dishes over the years.
My wife's favorite is a basic red or green curry chicken with lots of coconut milk gravy.
Daughter eats everything. Son prefers my Pad Thai.
Since the kids flew the nest, I only make curry chicken. I don't even make my own pastes these days. I found store bought with minimal sodium. My extra veggie is bamboo shoot slivers.

I do love a steaming bowl of Pho. Not complete without big portions of tripe and tendon.
Partial to the spring rolls, too.

 

[noboundaries]

Pad Thai, Pho, Broccoli Beef, and Lemon Chicken are my favorites. I've made three of the four (not pho).

Jeff just reminded me about Khao Nom Kok – Coconut Rice Cakes. Man those are good and going on the menu this week.

Hard to beat a good bowl of Pho. Nothing close any more so I guess its time to learn how to make.

 

[sawhorseray]

Teriyaki beef-asparagus stirfry, a little zucchini tossed into the wok, sesame shrimp, S&S pork, chicken shu mai. Love that stuff, have it couple times a month! RAY

 

[gmc2003]

SnS <insert any protein here>, Shrimp chow mien, and of course the generals

[Newglide]

Pretty much any of it except sushi if that counts.

If we order delivery it's always General Tso's Chicken. The Mrs. deserves a high sodium treat now and then.
When I do my own I always fall back on Korean BBQ Beef. I keep saying I'm going to try something different but we both like it and it's pretty simple.
