Taiwanese 3-cup chicken 三杯雞

One of my favourite dishes from home is 三杯雞, or, literally, three cup chicken. Cooked in sesame oil, rice wine, and soy sauce with a load of whole garlic cloves, fresh slices of ginger, and Thai holy basil (九層塔), this dish is always a reminder of how an over-abundance of flavour can work. Thai holy basil can be hard to find, but my local Asian market sometimes stock it.

Soy-ginger salmon with spiced sweet potato mash

Tired of the usual pan-fried salmon with dill, parsley, or lemon butter, I went Asian this time with a ginger and soy sauce marinade.
