This is one of those times when just a few ingredients pay out big, resulting in a rice dish that bursts with garlic flavor. This recipe is from Melissa Miranda, the chef-owner of Seattle’s Musang, a Filipinx community space and restaurant.

Recipe notes

Scallion-Speckled Rice

Scallion-infused oil, or pa gireum in Korean, is a fragrant way to upgrade a pot of rice.

Spicy Eggplant Frittata

Silky Japanese eggplant and fiery serrano chile unite in this no-fuss frittata that’s brunch-ready, dinner-worthy, and wildly good.

Quick Butter-Braised Tomatoes and Dumplings

Store-bought dumplings, fresh tomatoes, butter, and soy sauce simmer away for dinner in a flash.

Corn Furikake Fried Rice

The first thing you should make with sweet summer corn.

Silken Tofu With Black Bean Garlic Sauce

A homemade black bean sauce is better than anything you can find in the grocery store. Plus, the 15-minute dinner you can make with it.

Sweet and Spicy Zucchini

A punchy vinaigrette of preserved lemon and hot chile animates seared zucchini. A simple solution for summer's most prolific vegetable.

Roasted Tofu Grain Bowls With Miso-Tahini Sauce

This vegetarian bowl is as colorful as it is hearty: brown rice and quinoa, roasted tofu and broccolini, avocado, cabbage slaw, and a turmeric-spiked dressing.

Green Beans With Tahini Sbagliato

An accidental recipe (sbagliatio means mistaken in Italian) yields a delicious herby tahini dressing that is excellent poured over lightly blanched green beans.
