Ethnic/International Food Recipes
I'm curious as to what ethnic recipes people use - either recipes that have been passed down through generations or newer recipes. Any recipes are welcome.  I, personally, have recently decided to try and learn some Asian styles of cooking. I recently bought a wok and a Chinese/Japanese/Thai cookbook. So far (between the boyfriend and myself) we have made Thai Green Curry and Cantonese Pork (which didn't turn out so well..).
Anyway, I would love to see your recipes/experiments with ethnic and international cuisines!

I love German food. I once made Spaetzle with a German friend. I've also made Jaeger Schnitzel with this recipe: Jaeger Schnitzel. Though I can't say whether it was very authentic tasting, it did taste very good!
Here is the Thai Green Chicken Curry my boyfriend and I made. It turned out well, though I must admit, it was not as tasty as some curries I've had in restaurants.

I did a lot of ethnic [more or less] cooking when I lived in AK, lumpia, spanakopita, stir fried everything, sushi, kugel, perok, all kinds of Mexican - and blended it frequently with American ingredients. In fact, I had a quesadilla for dinner tonight. I don't have any recipes left, but you can find any of them with Google.

I am Japanese, so I do cook Japanese foods, but I like to cook any kind of foods. Lately I made Chicken Tikka Masala which turned out so good! I'm married to a meat and potato guy from St Paul, MN. so, I cook more "normal" foods than ethic usually. I used to be a sushi chef, so I do make sushi sometimes, my family love it, even DH.

nikkzone, did you make the chicken tikka masala from a recipe? If so, care to share?  I made some Indian dishes when I was in Wales, one of them was tikka masala, I forget the other. At the local grocery store, they had half an aisle full of Indian foods, many of them jarred sauces that had the recipe on the back, some of which I tried. I've never made any Indian food from scratch, though...
I love sushi.  Once again, something I've never made, but I think I might try my hand at sushi next.

American cooking is international cooking, isn't it?
I think I'm best at Chinese and Mexican cooking. I make no claims to authenticity.

I wish you lived closer to me so you could invite us over for sushi - I'd bring all the fresh ingredients and you could work your magic! It would give me a chance to ogle your knives as well - I have heard that sushi chefs have the best!
