Bhutanese Cheese Curry (Ema Daji)
This dish is usually made very hot in Bhutan, however when I make it it’s with jalapenos and fewer chilies. Adjust to your own taste. The cheese used in Bhutan is Churpi, which is a cross between farmer’s cheese and feta. Since it is not widely available, feta is substituted in this recipe. This unusual soup-like curry is rich and warming on a cool day. Recipe adapted from the book, “Mangoes and Curry Leaves ” by the team of Alford and Duguid.
Belizean Garnaches
I love this street vendor dish, although I wish I could try it right in Belize! Day old or stale corn tortillas are preferred as they have a lower moisture content and fry up better. There are other toppings that you can use on this but I like this traditional version. Enjoy!
Hummus Belizean-Style
Adapted from a recipe in the cookbook ‘Flavors of Belize’. Belize has a small Arab/Lebanese population and it has contributed to and influenced Belize’s melting pot cuisine. Black beans or garbanzo beans can replace the kidney beans if desired. Note: the food.com site does not recognize the ingredient ‘recado rojo’. You will need a half teaspoon of it for this recipe.
Belizean Style Habanero Sauce – Hot Sauce
I have tried many different hot sauces in my life, with different level of heat. My all time favorite is Marie Sharp’s. Nothing can beat the combination of heat and flavor. My wife was born in Belize and she introduced me to Marie Sharp and she gave us a tour of her factory outside Dangriga, Belize. When we visit Belize we always bring a ton of her sauces back. However, it can be hard to find hear in the states at a reasonable price, so I use this recipe. It is close enough to hers to satisfy the craving. I like to add some papaya to change it up a little. I have even added a little whiskey to it before. Tasted great.
