From My Kitchen to Yours .....
Despite its name, Mongolian beef did not originate in Mongolia. It is a Chinese-American dish adapted from the beef component of Mongolian barbecue. Curiously enough, Mongolian barbecue is not Mongolian nor is barbecuing involved in its cooking.
Orange chicken Chun Pei Gai Pan is Traditionally a Hunan recipe contained what is called chun pei, or ‘old skin,’ to describe the dried citrus peel used in its preparation. For restaurants outside of Asia, fresh orange peel is often used instead.
This is one of those recipes you see on tv and you just have to make it yourself. This one was Bobby Flay’s throwdown with Father Leo. Just looking at the show made my mouth water. After long searching on the internet I found Father leo’s Fusion Fajita’s. There is only one thing I cheated on with this recipe, I didn’t make the guacamole, bought it from the produce section freshly made. Next time when I have the time I will make it myself.
