What's your favorite ethnic food?

I have to say Mexican. I'm a native Texan, after all! :D

After that, Italian. And Cajun.

I've never been much for Indian food, nor Asian.
 
Hmmmm - I'm Italian - so what can I say??? but I also love hungarian, polish and german baking, and I love southern cooking!
 
Italian, because that covers pizza and spaghetti and I'm pretty sure garlic bread, I really like garlic bread.
 
Asian
Italian
Mexican

These are by far my faves and they encompass a lot of different items. I've never really been an adventurous eater so I can't say that I diverge too much from these. Just depends upon what the craving happens to be at any given point in time. I could always eat any of the above without too much persuasion. :)
 
Chinese for lunch or dinner, I like yang chow a lot:)
Italian during breaktime :p
Filipino food for breakfast
 
I like Mexican food as well. I think that is one of the few types of food that I can have over and over and not really get tired. Well...I suppose Chinese food as well.
 
Same all for me, but when I lived in the northeast, I used to have vietnamese food (Pho gha soup in particular -- I'm sure I'm spelling that wrong) all the time. Deelish.
 
I like chinese food alot. I also enjoy Italian. My favorite chinese dish is sesame chicken or general tso's chicken.

Hey texasrose if you like mexican food you should also like Indian food because there are quite similarities in both.

By the way I like Italian, chinese, Indian, arabic food a lot.

Hey mama mangia, Can you please tell me the recipe of garlic bread. I just love it. Whenever I go to pizza hut I order garlic bread with chesse for sure. I though you are an Italian so it would be great asking you the recipe.:)
 
Well - how do you like it????


Real butter; now - you can roast your garlic and smash it into the butter, or you can mince your garlic and add. That is a basic way of making it. If desired, you can add 1 t. oil (soy, olive, veggie, etc.) (that is for 1/2 c. butter) and fresh minced parsley, fresh minced onions, shallots or chives and a twist (from your pepper mill) of black pepper. If your butter is unsalted you can add salt.

I sometimes will grate Pecorino Romano on top; you can use Parmesan, Romano, Asiago, Fontina - or a blend which is very good also.

Wanna laugh??? Sometimes I will put anchovies on top!!

So you see - it's a great recipe to play with!
 
Living in Houston and abroad we like just about every cuisine we've ever tried--some more than others. Of course, Mexican is at the top of the list and anything Asian, with Vietnamese topping the list, as it's so flavorful as well as healthy. We're living in Kazakhstan at the moment and their cuisine is a bit more difficult to get used to (horsemeat is the meat of choice) though we've found some great dishes---just not heart-healthy but one can adapt. Their bread is to die for!!!!!
 
Indian food (love the spices and naan), greek/mediterranean, and mexican. I don't like german or polish food much.

Thanks Mama Mangia for the recipe. But I have one question. What about the bread? I mean I have to soak the bread in the butter or what?

You were planning to make the bread from scratch? You are an ambitious one. :) You can purchase a nice loaf of French bread, for example. Slice it thickly and apply the ingredients Mama Mangia suggested. Instant garlic bread. Tic Tacs to follow. :)

No I wasn't planning to make the bread. I just wanted to ask that do I have to soak the bread in ingredients or just apply it on bread. Thanks. you solved my problem.

But whenever I eat garlic bread in pizza hut it doesnt looks like that ingredients are applied on the bread. I think they bake their bread themselves. What do you think?

I'm sure they do bake it themselves, Shabs. Or they have commercial bakers who are contracted to bake it for them offsite. Or, they use frozen bread dough and spice it up a bit. I will post some of their "copy cat" recipes for you in another thread. :)
 
Fryums

Last week a co-worker brought guacamole and a bowl of crunchy, puffy star things for lunch. They were so good I wanted to make some, but he said they were from Mexico. He informed me that they had a similiar thing called Fryums in India.

Shabs? Anyone? What do you know about these? They were spicy and very tasty. I'd never seen nor heard of them before.
