In 2009 we saw tons of new recipes added from the community. There was a big emphasis on Latin American cuisines as well as Thai and Indian. Comfort foods were also a big favorite of our community. We’ve compiled a list of the most popular recipes on the site…so if you’re hungry…get in the kitchen and make some.
Vaibhav’s delicious, no-fuss ham is juicy and good. Best part is, you only need two ingredients. This is a great recipe to use if you’re just a novice in the kitchen or if you have tons of people coming over your place. You can get this started and move onto cleaning, decorating and prepping the rest of the scrumptious dishes you will be serving at the gathering.
49. Carrot and Cucumber Hosomaki Sushi:
There were a few sushi recipes that made the list. Most of them fishless. I’m sure this suits many people just fine…as it is a little scary working with raw fish at home. This recipe makes for a great party appetizer (less expensive than actually using fish and much safer). Just make sure to practice (a lot) prior to the big event, rolling these babies is not as easy as it looks. It took me many tries until I got a decent looking roll.
48. Breakfast Croissant Sandwich Recipe:
Why get one at Dunkin’ when you can make it better? This recipe does not use homemade croissants. If you have a great bakery, feel free to use the purchased kind, but if you like to bake (like me) why not make them yourself? Feel free to experiment with your fillings, go a little healthier by using egg whites and turkey bacon…feeling naughty? Then go for some prosciutto and swiss. The possibilities are endless.
47. Jalea:
Chef Julio-Cesar’s Jalea recipe represents the Peruvians in the community and pleases everyone that tastes it. This is a dish for fish lovers, there are actually three types: Jalea de Mariscos, Jalea de Pescado and Jalea Pota. Julio-Cesar uses both fish and shellfish so that you have a combination of the first two. The fish comes out very lightly fried so that the process does not hide the flavor of the fish. This is a lovely recipe, it is perfect in its simplicity.
If you haven’t had Bibibgka you have led a sad life. It is said that it is a traditionally Goan dish, but Filipinos have made it their own. They utilize rice flour to achieve the incredible textures for which Bibingka is known. We suggest that you top it with ice cream; or if you want to be naughty…spread a little butter on it and sprinkle it with coconut. Check this recipe out and see what you have been missing all these years.
