post your BEST! asian recipe here!

Mines? Would probably be a few dishes.. but ill post one of my favourites!!! Steammed fish.

a good trick in steaming fish to perfection is to have it sit in a river of sauces containing waterd down soy sauce, green onions, ginger, and slices of chinese ham.

As the fish steams.... itll absorb the soysauce flavours.
since the soyasuce is watered down the chinese ham will rejuvenate teh dish with a burst of smoky flavour!
the ginger, green onion, and parsley will help kill off some of the strong fishy smells associated with steamed fish.

This is also a low fat dish packed with protien! you can enjoy this on the dinner table along with other dishes including the traditional pot of rice =D

That's how I'd make it, only i also add a few tablespoons of chinese cooking wine as well as a shot of vinegar.

Here's a dish I like, Thenthuk, from the land of Xizang. It's somewhat similar to the "la-mian" (pulled noodles) soups in China.

1. Mix the 2 large handfuls of flour and 1.5 cup water very well by hand and keep adding water until you can make a smooth ball of dough. Then knead the dough very well until the dough is flexible. You want it thick enough that it will stretch when pulled.

2. Separate the dough into pieces about half as big as big as your fist, and roll the dough between your hands. Make the shape like bananas, or wedges. Then put oil on your hand and roll the pieces between your hands again so they won't stick together.

3. Put the wedges in a plastic bag or in a pot and put a lid to cover the dough so it doesn't dry out.
==============
1. Chop half an onion, a small piece of ginger, a clove of garlic, and one small tomato. You may also add other vegetables.

2. Fry everything in two tablespoons of oil for three or four minutes, Add a pinch of chicken, beef or vegetable bouillon, a dash of salt, and few shakes of soy sauce.

3. Add about five cups of water to the pot. At this time, you can add one potato or white radish. Then add cilantro, two green onions, and 1/4 bunch of spinach.

4. When the soup is boiling, start to put in the noodles, and let them boil for a bit longer.
===============
Note: Usually, I leave out the onion, garlic, and green onion, since true Chinese vegetarian cuisine lacks those ingredients.

Fried rice! It's not like most fried rice...it's all in what you put into it, and the steps you take!

What you need:

Rice...of course (preferably all ready steamed)
Green peppers (freshly picked from garden and sliced)
Potatoes (shredded)
Onions (shredded)
Carrots (sliced into squares)
Eggs (fresh)
Sesame seeds
Olive Oil
Salt

Okie...this is what you do. You take a frying pan...and drop in the onions, carrots, potatoes, and pepper. Fry all of em for a bit (not too much...just to get the flavor out).

Put in rice. Sprinkle sesame seeds over it. Mix it around a bit...let the juices seap into the rice :-D and then, crack and egg or two and drizzle it over the rice. Mix well. Sprinkle salt once in a while and taste.

Enjoy! Puhaha.
