Fresh Mint and Greek Yogurt Sauce
We were considering posting this sauce as part of our lamb chops this weekend, but then we made some amazing salmon on the grill. Henry has mastered how to cook salmon so that it is perfectly crispy on the outside and moist and perfectly cooked on the inside. This sauce, amazingly, is almost more delicious…

Bison Masala with Fresh Curry Leaves

Platanos Maduros Caldenses – Colombian Sweet Plantains
This is a modified version of a very typical dish from the Caldas region of Colombia. This may seem like a dessert, but it is always served as a side dish and usually accompanied by rice and meat. We were feeling a little homesick and had to indulge; yet, still managed to make this dish in…

Coconut Frog Legs
This is one of our favorite things to eat. The meat is very tender and tastes a little like Halibut cheeks meets super tender chicken. We purchase ours from a local Asian market as they otherwise sometimes difficult to find. The frog meat is very lean and will work well with more complex side dishes…
