Tempura is a popular Japanese dish consisting of battered and fried seafood and vegetables. It is light and lacy, different than the typical heavily-fried items we find in the states. It is a unique and fun way to get your family to eat vegetables and seafood.

Creating a teppanyaki-style meal at home is easier than you think. Our home-cooked version is full of the flavors that we love but it is much lighter and healthier than the restaurant versions.

This rice is just a simpler version of my Pork Fried Rice. I’ve added rough quantities to the recipe but I usually make it to taste.

Start your teppanyaki-style feast with these veggies while your family is hungry, and before their plates are piled with rice and meats. They shouldn’t complain too much because the teriyaki glaze makes the veggies taste like candy.

Making gyoza is a fun family cooking project. Gyoza is the Japanese version of Jiaozi, the Chinese potsticker. It is a type of dumpling that is typically filled with ground pork but you can also fill them with ground chicken or turkey. You can make the gyoza wrappers from scratch or buy them at the store.

This teriyaki chicken is the closest I’ve come to matching the teriyaki chicken served at our favorite local sushi restaurant. I use my Flank Steak Marinade recipe with the addition of cornstarch or flour to help thicken the sauce into a rich teriyaki glaze.

We have always loved seared ahi tuna but we thought it was something we could only eat at restaurants. That was until this past Thanksgiving when we were in Hawaii and our neighbor taught us how to sear ahi tuna, just like the restaurants do it.

This version of Cha Han is at the top of my comfort food list. But unlike most comfort foods, it is actually pretty healthy. I like to eat it with grilled scallops or teriyaki chicken.
