Home-style Scallion Pancakes (蔥油餅), just like how you would find them at restaurants and homes in Taipei, Taiwan. Crispy, flaky, and chewy at the same time — a perfect balance.

For dinner tonight, homemade congee -- savory rice porridge -- that sticks to the bone.
Homemade Congee
For 4 servings:
Congee:
1 cup [uncooked] long grain rice
4 cups bone broth [chicken or beef]
3 cups water
1 tsp. Kosher salt
Combine all the ingredients together in a small pot. Bring to a boil; simmer on the stove for at least 1-hour and cooked down to desired texture. (I don’t like my rice too broken down.)
Common congee seasonings include green onions, ginger, roasted peanuts, egg, pork floss and so much more. But for this recipe, I added duck to mine!
Duck Breast (the lazy air-fryer version) -- Optional:
12-ounces Moulard duck breast
1/2 teaspoon five spice
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tbsp. vegetable oil
Pat dry the skin on the duck breast with a clean paper towel. Score the skin with a crosshatch pattern. Add seasonings and oil on the skin, spreading evenly. Cook in an air fryer at 400F for 15 minutes -- the internal temperature should be around 130F. Slice before serving with congee.
Slow Cooker Spicy Korean Meatballs make a great appetizer with toothpicks or main course with rice and a green veggie! The delicious sauce is made with gochujang, toasted sesame oil, garlic, honey, ginger, and soy sauce.
Pasta is one of the world's simplest foods to cook. Spaghetti is the most popular variety of pasta. It is a dish that is eaten so regularly. One of life's most affordable indulgences is it.
