Just Yelp “Manas Indian Cuisine Restaurant” or go to http://manascuisine.com/ you will know what I am talking about…
I just love the Navratan Korma (Assorted seasonal fresh vegetables cooked with fruits, nuts and spices and cheese), the Peshawari Naan (Leavened bread stuffed with raisins, cherries, nuts and coconut powder) and Mango Lassi!!!
Seared medium with blackening spices with Avocado, Lettuce, Tomato, Cucumber and a Wasabi Aioli wrapped in a Whole Wheat Tortilla served with Asian style Slaw
Loved the handmade pasta when I saw them in Venice and couldn’t help but buying a bag of boat-shape pasta as souvenir of my trip in Italy….Not mention how much I enjoyed cooking it at home with all the sweet memories =)

Ingredients: Durum wheat flour, if black with black squid 2%, if green with spinach 2%, if red with tomato – bee troot 3%, if yellow with turmeric 2%, without artificial colouring or additives.
Even though the garlic in the States was not as fresh or garlicy as in Italy, I still loved the smell on my hand after I made the pasta =)
I learned to make Maria Bread from Emma – a delicious and healthy breakfast! Upon my request, my friend agreed to make this short video clip to introduce Maria Bread to the rest of the world…and Emma did a fantastic job! Enjoy!
A friend used the term “Chindian” on his Facebook post which I thought was pretty cool [he is half Indian with a Chinese American wife]… It turns out that there is even a Chindian restaurant the in the Twin Cities – Chindian Cafe. Also vegetarian friendly – super!
Had okra for dinner today and my roommate was asking me what it was and what’s it called in Chinese, etc.
Introduced by a friend a while back, I started enjoy making quick stir-fried okra slices with chopped fresh garlic – yummy in the tummy! But I always forget to check out the Chinese name for it … wanted to give a good answer … I looked it up. So it is actually called 黄秋葵…It doesn’t seem very common to see okra in supermarkets in China, but can definitely be found in the Asian supermarkets in LA.
Some people are crazy all about okra…It is for sure one of my healthy favorites
