Crispy Salmon and Spinach Spring
Rolls
Spring Rolls:
8 Spring roll wrappers
1 bn Fresh spinach; rinsed
24 oz Fresh salmon; cut into
8 Finger-length pieces
Salt and pepper to taste
Vegetable oil for frying
Sesame Ginger Sauce:
5 oz fresh ginger, julienned
1/4 c soy sauce
1/4 c honey
1 ts Thai red-Chile paste
1/4 c sesame oil
2 ts white sesame seeds, toasted
2 ts black sesame seeds, toasted
Lay spring roll wrappers flat. Place 2 spinach leaves on the lower
part of each square and top with a piece of salmon. Season to taste.
Fold bottom and side corners toward the inside, over the salmon. Then,
holding the sides in place, roll tightly from the bottom up and seal
the top edge with a bit of water, applied with a finger.
To deep-fry, cook spring rolls approximately 2 minutes at 375 degrees.
To pan-fry, place with the folded side down in half an inch of
vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, turning until
evenly golden brown, approximately 6 minutes or less.
Sesame Ginger Sauce:
Place sliced ginger, soy sauce, and honey in a saucepan and simmer
over medium heat until liquid is reduced by half; do not allow to
boil. Add Chile paste and cook for about 2 more minutes. Remove from
heat and allow to cool for approximately 10 minutes. Then gradually
whisk in sesame oil. Add black and white sesame seeds to sauce if
desired.
To serve, place several fresh spinach leaves (or other greens) and 2
spring rolls on each plate; slice 1 roll in half diagonally. Just
before serving, drizzle with sauce and sprinkle with black and white
sesame seeds. Provide additional sauce in small individual containers
for each person.

Mediterranean Pasta Salad
1.
2/3 cup olive oil
2.
3 T. red-wine vinegar
3.
1/4 cup chopped basil (I use about 1/2 cup, though)
4.
2 T chopped green onion
5.
2 T grated Parmesan cheese
6.
12 ounces rotelle pasts, freshly cooked and drained
7.
1 each small red, green and yellow bell pepper, halved lengthwise and
cut in thin crosswise strips (I use whatever I have around)
8.
1/4 cup toasted pine nuts (I double and even triple this amount - you
can never have too many pine nuts!)
9.
1/4 cup Greek-style olives (I usually omit this)
10.
8 ounces cubed or crumbled feta cheese (I use about 12 ounces - see note
above for pine nuts - you can never have enough feta cheese)
Process oil, vinegar, basil, green onion, Parmesan cheese in a blender
or food processor until smooth. Put pasta, bell pepper strips, nuts and
olives (if used), into large bowl. Pour in dressing, toss to mix. Add
cheese to salad. Toss lightly. Serve at room temperature.
