Stuffed Fish (Gefilte Fish)

An Ashkenazi Jewish classic — whole fish is cut into steaks, the flesh is ground with onion and bread to make a tender stuffing, then the pieces are gently simmered in aromatic broth until the cooking liquid sets into a golden jelly. Best served cold with horseradish.

Soups

Sundubu Jjigae (Korean Soft Tofu Stew)

One of Korea's three great jjigae alongside kimchi jjigae and doenjang jjigae: silky uncurdled soft tofu (sundubu) spooned in large chunks into a fiery gochugaru-and-anchovy broth with kimchi, pork belly, zucchini, and mushrooms. An egg is cracked into the boiling pot at the table — the residual heat soft-sets it. The stew arrives bubbling in a clay pot (ttukbaegi), surrounded by rice and banchan. Jjigae means stew in Korean; sundubu means extra-soft tofu. The tofu gives no flavor of its own — it is a soft, silent canvas that absorbs the intensely seasoned broth and contrasts its silkiness against the spice and the chew of pork and vegetables.

Sweet & Spicy Garlic Bowl

Sweet potato with paprika and cinnamon, ground turkey with garlic and warm spices, cottage cheese, avocado, and garlic hot honey. Garlic appears three times here — in the sweet potato seasoning, in the turkey, and in the honey drizzle. That repetition is intentional.

Sweet and Sour Pork

A Cantonese classic — crispy cornstarch-coated pork pieces stir-fried with bell pepper, onion, carrot, and optional pineapple in a glossy tangy-sweet sauce of vinegar, ketchup, sugar, and soy sauce. The secret is high heat, small batches, and not overcrowding the wok.

Syrniki (Cottage Cheese Pancakes)

Crispy outside, soft and cheesy inside. Syrniki are small fried curd pancakes made from cottage cheese, eggs, and a little flour — nothing more. They've been a weekend breakfast staple across Russia and Ukraine for generations. Serve with sour cream and jam, or just a spoonful of honey.

🇱🇧LebanonMedium

Salads

Tabbouleh

Tabbouleh is a Lebanese herb salad — not, as many Western recipes would have it, a grain salad with herbs in it. The correct ratio is roughly four parts chopped parsley to one part bulgur by volume. The bulgur is present for texture and a gentle nuttiness, but the parsley is the point: the salad should be intensely green, assertively flavoured, and taste like fresh herbs dressed with lemon rather than wheat dressed with garnish. Fine bulgur (#1) soaks directly in the lemon-olive oil dressing without any cooking, which keeps the texture light. The tomatoes are salted and drained before going in so they don't flood the salad with watery juice. Everything is finely chopped by hand — a knife, not a food processor, which turns the parsley to paste.

Tahini Sauce

Simple tahini sauce — sesame paste thinned with water, brightened with lemon and garlic. Five minutes, no cooking. The trick is adding water gradually until it goes from thick paste to pourable silk.

Breakfast and Brunch

Tamagoyaki (Japanese Rolled Omelette)

A Japanese rolled omelette built in layers: thin sheets of sweetened, dashi-seasoned egg poured into a pan one at a time, each one rolled onto the last while still slightly soft, building up a spiral-layered log that shows the rings when sliced. The flavor is lightly sweet, subtly savory, and distinctly Japanese — nothing like a Western omelette. Tamagoyaki appears at breakfast alongside rice and miso soup, in bento boxes, and as nigiri sushi topping. The technique takes practice but the ingredients are few, the eggs always taste good, and the first imperfect roll is still worth eating.

Meat Dishes

Tandoori Chicken

Bone-in chicken thighs and drumsticks scored deeply, marinated overnight in spiced yogurt, then cooked at high heat until the outside chars and the inside stays completely juicy. No sauce, no gravy — just the marinade working directly against the heat. The red-orange color comes from Kashmiri chilli powder, the flavor from ginger, garlic, garam masala, and kasuri methi. This is the dish that butter chicken and tikka masala are built on top of. On its own it's simpler and better. Serve with pickled onion, lime wedges, and mint chutney.
