Asian Southern Mash Up

video

Hi there! I've been away on a little vacation. But I'm back. With temperatures dropping these days, I have a scorcher of a recipe (literally!...check out the flames in the video) I came up with this recipe after I bought a bottle of Maker's Mark and created a night's menu around this most awesome bourbon.

First, I made the Devils on Horseback (check out the recipe below). Then I decided to mash up cultures. (It's what I do! My ancestry is basically a mash up of cultures, so I run with that) I took some of the South, some Irish, some Asian and created this great meal.

My mom used to make Potatoes Colcannon growing up. For those of you who don't know, it's essentially mashed potatoes with cabbage. My mom used to add scallions to it. (It's also not a bad way to sneak in those greens for kids) I love to make it, but I instead chose to use Chinese cabbage, baby bok choy, and scallions. I added a bit of sesame oil to it as well, and normally top it off with toasted sesame seeds, but I forgot to in the video.

Hope you enjoy it. It's one of my favorites.
