Tofu and Vegetables in Coconut Milk
A creamy chile-spiked curry loaded with vegetables. Yet the richness of the sauce sorta makes you forget you’re eating healthy. Swear.
Fennel Baked in Cream
Fennel turns meltingly tender and oh so sweet when slowly, slowly, slowly braised in cream, cheese, and butter. One more reason to be enamored with the holidays.
Indonesia Spice Cake
This butter-rich spice cake, flavored with cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves and known as spekkuk is an inheritance from Holland’s colonization of Indonesia.
