FOODIE FRIDAY: Thai Chile & Ginger Stir Fry

I don’t ever marinate.  It’s not because I don’t like marinated meat; I just forget.  All the time.  However, I made a run to Whole Foods for the madre and found myself on the marinated sauce aisle, which is how I came home with Thai-Chile with Ginger Sauce.  Now that I have it; I have to use it.

Thai-Chile w/ Ginger Stir Fry
1 lb cubed steak
Thai-Chile w/ Ginger sauce (can substitute for any Asian marination sauce of your choice)
2 baby bok choy bunch chopped
handful of grape tomatoes sliced in half
chopped fresh cilantro (to taste)
fresh squeezed lime juice
  1. Marinate the meat in the sauce for at least an hour.
  2. While meat marinates, prepare vegetables. 
  3. Drain the sauce out of the meat and stir fry until brown.
  4. Add vegetables and place a lid over the skillet to let the steam cook everything thoroughly.
  5. Add cilantro and lime, serve stir fry mixture over rice.

Throw Back Monday to Mongolia

It’s been awhile since I’ve posted an old travel photo.  This one is from Mongolia.  I’ve been thinking about a lot of my experience and lessons I learned while living here.  It’s helping me get into the proper mindset as I gear up for my next trip; this time to India.  I’ve always said that Mongolia is one of the most primitive places I’ve ever visited.  I know India will rival this testimony in many ways.  Have any of my readers been to India?  Any suggestions?

I leave at the end of this week and will be taking a short sabbatical from all things 21st Century and will return after Memorial Day.  Wish me luck!  :)
