Romesco sauce...

Romesco is great with all kinds of grilled vegetables (escalibada) or with fish. I made the version from Madhur Jaffrey's World Vegetarian.

Rijstaffel

They say Rijsttafel (not rijstaafel), meaning "table of rice", is an invention of the Dutch, made in Holland when they yearned for the nice food from their former colony Indonesia. It is a large selection of all kinds of Indonesian food set out on a large table. You could prepare, for example : satay, gado-gado (mixture of boiled and fresh vegetables), peanut sauce, fried tempeh (kind of tofu), string beans, sajur (soupy dish with vegetables and boiled egg for example), shrimp, beef, pork dishes, and condiments like fried onions, seroendeng (fried coconut flakes with peanuts and spices), sambal (hot sauce) and atjar (sweet and sour preserved vegetables). All is eaten with rice, either white or fried (nasi goreng). So, prepare some rice and add a couple of dishes (as complicated or plentiful as you like) - and you have your Rijsttafel at home!

Cool Tool: The Flessenlikker

Just found them at fantes.com Ordered four! I also found them at Traders Point Creamery. I didn't order theirs as they were more expensive, but they also looked to be a bit better in quality.

Romesco sauce...

Steamed or roasted asparagus is heavenly with romesco. So are potatoes tossed in some kind of gremolata and then roasted.
