What a Ride

Oh,

Page 2: Hawaii Dining Out 10 April 2011

ono, you know

While I completely adore all typesof cuisine from across theworld, there’s one food item

that I absolutely cannot and will not livewith out.

Drum roll, please.I am a complete sucker for tofu! You may

be surprised to hear such a thing, as tofumay be categorized as the simplest offoods. But there’s something about it thatis so fresh and pure, like an empty canvaswaiting to be created into a masterpiece.

This week, I took it upon myself to seewhat some of our Island’s best chefs, akaartists, are creating with tofu. All wereworks of culinary art in their own right —some simple and classic, while othersremarkably eclectic. So get your appetitesready, readers, because there’s more totofu than meets the eye.

Azure RestaurantThe freshest of

catches are found atAzure Restaurant, aspecialty islandseafood restaurantled by chef de cuisineJon Matsubara.Located at The RoyalHawaiian a Luxury

Collection Resort, Azure offers a menu,hand-crafted by Matsubara, that payshomage to succulent island fish and fruitsde mer. Fresh fish are selected each morn-ing from the Hawaii fish auction, sopatrons know they’re receiving only thebest from Hawaii’s waters.

Knowing that tofu was what I was afterthis week, Matsubara had a few exquisitetofu dishes up his sleeve that were bothuniquely appealing and utterly onolicious.

“We have vegetarians who come in allthe time and we highly recommend theBlackened Tofu appetizer ($25),”Matsubara says. “One of the ideas was totake a piece of tofu, roast and butcher itlike a piece of fish. So we cut it to look like

a filet of fish and put the same spice mix-ture on it, roast it and serve it with a vinai-grette and vegetables.

“We took a very classical blackeningspice (Cajun style) and added a bit ofIndian spice, along with the traditionalJapanese flavors of furikake,” he adds. “Itworks really well together.”

And I have to say, this is one of the mosttantalizing tofu dishes I have ever comeby, second only to Matsubara’s Whole FishPreparation (market price). The latter dishfeatures a dramatic presentation of awhole deboned fish, such as a snapper,perfectly fileted and deep fried to a crisp,

and accompanied by Sumida Farms’Watercress and Tofu Salad.

“This is another local favorite for peoplewho love to eat the whole fish. It’s servedwith a ponzu sauce drizzled on the tofuand the cherry tomatoes and a wasabi soy

cover storyove is always in the air at Kit nKitchen, where the aroma ofattraction tugs on the heart-

strings of diners, wooing them to partake inculinary goodness. And when guests finallydig in at this eclectic eatery on UniversityAvenue, they indubitably end up falling forits dishes — and hard.

You can credit Kit and May Yiu — an inseparablehusband-and-wife team since the restaurant firstopened its doors a decade ago — for that chemicalreaction. The couple’s love of food, and for each other,is readily apparent in the care and ingenuity they bringto a menu replete with Eurasian delights.

Dining Out recently caught up with the Yius who,even after 11 years of marriage, are still firm believersin the mantra, “Love is food for the soul.”

DO: It’s always great when people are able to dowhat they love, and it’s evident that both of you pos-sess a love of food.

May: We really love food and we like to try differentkinds of food. I grew up in Hong Kong, but spent sometime during my high school years living in Quebec. Itwas there that I was introduced to a lot of French-stylecuisine that’s often blended with a Canadian-style cui-sine.

Kit: I was born and raised in Hong Kong, and latermoved to Hawaii and graduated from Moanalua HighSchool, and I’ve always loved food. I’ve been in therestaurant industry for more than 20 years and hadmany opportunities to travel, having worked in Japanfor a bit. It was there that I was greatly influenced bythe Japanese-European mix, as well as Italian. A lot ofAsian and European twists also can be found in HongKong, and I grew up accustomed to that kind of flavorand cuisine.

DO: Diners can find many of these Eurasian influ-ences in your cuisine. Could you name a few that theymust absolutely try?

Kit: Our risottos have always been popular, and bypopular demand we’ve added additional risotto varia-tions to the menu. For example, the Lamb RisottoRosemary ($13.95) features tender roast lamb sea-soned with rosemary atop a Burgundy tomato saucerisotto with fresh onion, celery, tomato and a touch ofParmesan cheese. The Red Duck Pesto Risotto($13.95) is unique with roasted duck atop a refreshingtomato pesto sauce risotto with a pinch of Parmesancheese. The broth that we simmer with the risotto isreally special.

May: Kit serves as executive chef here and we havemany Chef’s Specials like Pepper Lamb (two pieces,$14.95; three pieces, $16.95; four pieces, $20.95), a rackof lamb grilled with herbs, black pepper sauce and amix of vegetables. It comes with your choice of rice orspaghetti. The Red Wine Ox Tail Stew ($13.95) is alsoone that you’ll never forget. Served with jasmine rice,the ox tail simmers in a red wine sauce that gives off atender yet powerful taste. The Osso Bucco Milanese($16.95) is another favorite. This dish consists of beefosso bucco braised in an aromatic sauce with freshRoma tomato, fresh vegetables and herbs. If lookingfor an appetizer, I recommend Kit’s Sampler ($9.95)

L

Owners Kit and MayYiu form quite a tag team

at Kit n Kitchen, wherethe Eurasian dishes are

plentiful and the mainingredient is amor.

DO: That’s quite an eclecticarray of flavors! Kit n Kitchenalso has a Four-Course mealoption. What is this all about?

Kit: The Four-Course mealis priced at only $19.95. Forthe first course, customerscan pick from a Garden Saladwith a homemade gingerdressing, Milano Tomato Soup,Creamy Corn Soup or a CreamyMushroom Soup. Then, for the sec-ond course, you receive Kit’sSampler, and as part of the thirdcourse, diners may choose oneentrée from the entrée section of themenu. Finally, the meal wraps upwith your choice of dessert — choco-late cake, ice cream sundae orcheese-cake. The four-course mealcan feed one person, and wine pair-ing is available for an additional cost.

DO: You obviously have some-thing special going on here — espe-cially when it comes to the restau-

rantand your marriage. It’s a perfect pair-ing. How did Kit n Kitchen come tobe?

May: We met in Hong Kong andshortly after we were married, Kitsays to me, “You like to eat and I liketo eat. How about we open our ownrestaurant?!” So that’s pretty muchhow Kit n Kitchen came to be(laughs).

DO: Do the two of you come upwith all the recipes on your own?

May: Yes, Kit and I are both verycreative and we’re constantly think-ing of new items. We have our friendsand customers try our new items,

and if they like it then it goeson the menu.

Kit: I cook, but May’s theboss (laughs).

DO: Do you think that beingmarried has been beneficialwhen working together in thisbusiness?

May: Of course! In therestaurant business, peoplecan be out for themselves, butwe really want the best foreach other. We’re always look-

ing in the same direction.Kit: We do fight from time to time,

but in the end, it’s all worth it.

DO: You’ve constantly beenadding to your restaurant by includ-ing a very successful breakfast menu,for instance, that many say offers thebest Eggs Benedict on the island. Anymore plans for Kit n Kitchen?

Kit: Maybe opening anotherrestaurant? We’re not sure yet. Wehave a lot of people approaching usto open another one. But we’re a tagteam, so we’ll always be together atwhatever restaurant it may be.

For those of us who live here, it can beall too easy to take Oahu’s charmsfor granted.

Many of us establish routines andfamiliar paths, and then forget the simplejoy of deviating from them to reclaim theisland’s treasures.

Top of Waikiki is a perfect example ofan Oahu treasure whose charms arebeing rediscovered by locals. “I meetpeople and talk to them about the restau-rant, and it’s not unusual for them to say,‘I was there 20 years ago, and I haven’tbeen back since,’” says Craig Bunkley,general manager of the 46-year-oldWaikiki restaurant. “It’s changed so

much. The food is probably better thanit’s ever been before. The service isgreat. And of course, every table has aview.”

That’s putting it mildly. Top of Waikikiis a revolving restaurant on the top floorof the Waikiki Business Plaza, and theview from any table is spectacular.Looking a bit like a three-tiered weddingcake, the restaurant was built in 1965 bylocal businessman William K.H. Mau anddesigned by architect John Graham Jr.(known also for projects like the SeattleSpace Needle). A single row of tables oneach tier ensures a fantastic view forevery guest. The entire circular restau-

rant sits on a huge plat-form turned by a pair of1.5 hp electric motors and18 stainless steel wheels.

Under the direction ofexecutive chef John Neff,the restaurant’s Pacificfusion cuisine featuresstrong local flavors withEuropean flair. GrilledAtlantic Salmon ($35),with tempura shrimp andscallop soufflé, is servedwith a miso consommé.

Surf & Turf ($33) consists of curriedseafood paella with Portuguese sausage,kalbi short ribs and kim chee. The TeaSmoked Duck Duo ($33) includes duckbreast with li hing orange ginger sauce,accompanied by moo shu duck confitspring rolls. And the Spicy Tuna “Tartare”Caesar Salad ($12) actually inducedBunkley to accept the job as GM.

The restaurant also boasts an impres-sive wine list. “You don’t see many winelists with Viognier on them,” Bunkleyobserves, referring to vintages madewith rare white grapes from the Rhôneregions of France. Other eclectic bottlesinclude a 2005 Neal Cabernet fromCalifornia, the 2004 Cliff Lede “Poetry,”and the 2004 Sassicaia, a Super Tuscan

described by Wine Enthusiast as “thebest Sassicaia of the last 10 years.”Wines are priced from $7-$15 by theglass (all entrées on the menu havesuggested pairings); bottles start ataround $25.

For the past year or two, therestaurant has boasted two nightlyHappy Hours.

The $7 pupumenu includes selections like BBQ

Pork Sliders, a California Roll Towerand Spicy Ahi Poke.

“Every night during Happy Hour,we have a great crowd with a lot ofgood energy,” Bunkley notes. “Whenwe saw how successful it was, wethought maybe there was an opportu-nity for a late-night event.”

Promoted through Facebook, theSaturday Night Special event hap-pens just once a month — traditional-ly on the third Saturday, though itmay vary — and features the samedrink and pupu specials offered dur-ing Happy Hour, plus occasional live

entertainment. “We want to keep itspecial for people who take interestin the restaurant,” says Bunkley. “It’sour way of thanking them.”

The restaurant is now taking reser-vations for its Mother’s Day BuffetBrunch on Sunday, May 8, between 10a.m. and 2 p.m. “I don’t think you canfind a better venue!” says Bunkley.The buffet, priced at $39.95 for adultsand $19.95 for children aged 3 to 10,will feature treats such as prime rib,grilled swordfish with pesto creamsauce, country-fried chicken withsausage gravy, and eggs Benedict

with spinach, Prosciutto, asparagus,and crab Béarnaise.

“Many local clientele take advan-tage of us for special occasions,” con-cludes Bunkley. “But there’s a greatadvantage to coming here any time.We have validated parking, so youcan see the sunset, have dinner andexperience Waikiki until midnight,when our garage closes. And duringour late-night events, we extend theparking hours. People need to knowhow easy it is to come down here andenjoy this restaurant — and Waikiki, apart of Hawaii we sometimes forget.”

For those looking to catch a movie at the oldWaikiki 3 Theater, unfortunately, the curtainhas remain closed since the iconic buildingshut its doors in 2002.

However, head down to the 2284 Kalakaua Ave.today and one may, instead, catch some of Waikiki’sfreshest seafood at Atlantis Seafood & Steak. As itsname suggests, Atlantis is a hidden treasure nestledin the heart of Waikiki, surrounded by numerousretail establishments that help make the trip intoWaikiki worth the while. According to the restau-rant’s executive general manager Steven Matsuno,“Waikiki is still Waikiki. It’s right in our front yard,and it’s an awesome place. Come check it out!”

The crown jewel of Atlantis’ bountiful menu alsohappens to be one of the better deals around town— both above and below the sea. Atlantis offers upits Seafood Lovers Special ($59.95) that includes agreen salad, Pacific Sampler (complete with jumbooysters, tiger shrimp cocktail and ahi poke),Vegetable du Jour, dinner rolls, rice or potato, cof-fee or tea, dessert and — best of all — a one-poundMaine Lobster fresh from the tank, where cus-tomers are able to select the crustacean of theirchoice. The Seafood Lovers package is one of therestaurant’s most popular dishes and, according toMatsuno, many of his guests order the decadentspread along with one of Atlantis’ signature steaks— including the Atlantis Garlic Rib Eye ($28.95) —

and share the meal amongsmall parties.

In addition to the juicy andtender steaks on the menu,Matsuno also recommendsthe Atlantis Lamb Chop($28.95). The four chopscome seasoned with a boldKona coffee rub and fin-ished with a rich demi-glace. The Slow RoastedPrime Rib accompanied by creamy horseradish andau jus also is a popular choice among diners whocan choose from the eight-, 12- or 16-ounce portions($22.95, $27.95 or $36.95).

Matsuno also takes pride in Atlantis’ pasta dish-es, which, as one might expect, come chock full ofdelicious seafood and other fresh ingredients. TheOcean Seafood Pasta ($24.95) offers diners a moun-tain of premium pasta smothered in a rich tomatocream sauce and brimming with fresh island fishpieces, Manila clams, tiger shrimp and leeks. TheShrimp & Sausage Pasta ($22.95) also is in highdemand as diners have taken a liking to the dish’scombination of Italian sausage, fresh shrimp andmushrooms all over a heaping portion of pasta.

Atlantis also offers Early Bird Special itemspriced at $12.95 and are available for kamaaina allday and night — the dishes are discounted for non-

with a choice of vegetable as well as eithermashed potatoes or rice, and makes for a perfectcombination of quality and value.

While Atlantis has established a loyal followingwith tourists, Matsuno hopes kamaaina will make thetrip into Waikiki to enjoy the ambience, the electrici-ty emanating from a revitalized Kalakaua Avenueand, especially, some of the eatery’s surf ’n’ turf.

“For local people, if you haven’t come down toWaikiki in a while, a lot has changed,” Matsuno says.“You can get a little bit of everything right here atAtlantis. While you can’t catch a movie here any-more, you can catch some excellent fresh seafoodand steak.”

For executive general manager Steven Matsuno,fresh lobster is one of Atlantis Seafood & Steak’s spe-cialties.

Your Way At Ton Ton When you’re hungry for a steam-ing bowl of freshly maderamen, you don’t have to look

far. There’s really no shortage of eaterieson the island that serve up the popular,slurpable noodles.

But if you choose not to eat meat,there may be a bit of trepidation whenordering off a menu. Sure, the ramenmay be called “vegetable” or it’s listedin the “vegetable” section of the menu,but how do you know if the restaurantuses a meat base for its broth?

There’s no need to worry, veggielovers. Just head out Waipahu way,because at Ton Ton Ramen, all youhave to do is ask.

“We cook fresh to order,” says ownerKen Cho. What that means is if you

prefer a meat-free vegetable broth,just tell your server and the cook willhappily accommodate you.

That, of course, goes for Ton Ton’sVegetable Ramen as well — a noodlebowl that’s filled to the rim with carrots,cabbage, onions and bean sprouts. Atonly $6.95, it’s a budget-friendly wayto slurp to your heart’s content.

It’s a healthy choice for anyone —even meat-eaters.

“Customers can choose regular orvegetarian broth, just ask,” adds Cho.“It’s very popular. A lot of people wholike to eat more vegetables order thatone.”

At Ton Ton Ramen, pleasing the cus-tomer is what it’s all about.

Just ask.

Getting your day startedthe right way at Paesano

By Kyle Galdeira

The key to success for PaesanoRistorante Italiano is the eatery’sability to infuse local, home-

grown products with traditional Italianrecipes.Much like its celebrity wall — that

includes photos of stars who havedined at the restaurant, includingaction-film star Steven Seagal, NFLquarterback Boomer Esiason, and localactors Jason Scott Lee and StacyKamano — Paesano’s menu features awide range of dishes geared towardpleasing multiple tastes.The appetizers at Paesano are

hearty, and can serve as a quick meal,or the perfect segue to a multi-coursedinner. The Kahuku Shrimp in Shell

($13.90) features large, juicy crus-taceans from Oahu’s North Shoreserved with a spicy dipping sauce con-taining cayenne pepper, paprika and, ofcourse, plenty of butter.Sticking with the fresh catch, Pupu

Picks readers should ask for the FreshClams with Hamakua Mushrooms($15.90). This dish is actually not list-ed on the menu, but the friendly staffat Paesano will be happy to make it foryou as they do daily for regulars whodemand the dish. The clams and Aliimushrooms — which are harvestedfrom a farm in Hamakua on the BigIsland — come in a white wine saucethat incorporates garlic and chiliflakes. As the name of the specialmushrooms suggests, it’s truly a dishfit for royalty.

From the historical record,yakiniku cuisine is said to haveoriginated from Korean immi-grants living in Japan — specifical-ly, Osaka — after the second worldwar. Regardless of whether the his-torical record is true or not, manywill agree that Sikdorak KoreanRestaurant, located in the SamSung plaza off Keeaumoku Street,is a great place to enjoy this culi-nary technique.For meat lovers of the pork or

beef flavor, Sikdorak has a seat foryou. One of the highlights on themenu is Spicy Pork, made frompork braut. It is lightly marinatedin both an original ginger and soy sauce mix. “I worked in yakiniku restaurants for 10

years making new sauces. This is a differentstyle than in Korea, but people from hereseem to really like this one,” says restaurantowner Patrick Choi.

You can enjoy the Spicy Pork by itself, butfor $19.95 ($16.95 for children under 12)Sikdorak’s All-You-Can-Eat meal gives themeat lover in you a chance to engulf as muchof the spicy pork desired, not to mention theplethora of other meat choices available.Personally grilled within arm’s reach, diners

may choose from spicy pork, kal-bi short ribs, beef brisket, rib-eye steak, pork belly, barbecuechicken, tripe and, for the adven-turous types, tongue.“The All-You-Can-Eat is good

and it is cheap, and it’s meant forfamily and friends,” Choi adds.If there are two people who

can validate the Spicy Pork, itwould have to be Choi’s sons,Richard and Robert. “It is very delicious,” remarks

Richard.“It is my favorite,” Robert adds.Along with your meat,

Sikdorak’s guests also will enjoylettuce salad, miso soup, twotypes of kim chee, white rice,

and banchan or side of the day, whichincludes seaweed, potato, cucumber andmore. On top of that, Sikdorak is open 24 hours a

day, and invites you to bring your own beeror wine.

My biggest goal for Liu’s Chop Suey was to introduce our tasty and affordable dishes to everyone aroundthe island. I decided to promote my dishes by advertising a coupon in Dining Out featuring a specific

dish each week. I tracked my coupons on a daily basis and the results Iachieved were amazing! Each week, we sell over 100 of our weekly fea-

tured dish! Our sales for March are usually very low due to tax season,however, this year our sales were up by 25% thanks to Dining Out! We

have also seen a lot of new customers fromKaneohe, Kahala and the West side whohave now become “regulars” at our

restaurant.

Dining Out has helped us throughthese hard economic times and is taking

Liu’s Chop Suey to another level!

Dining Out is my hero!

Steamed Butterfish($13.95)

Due to the overwhelming popularity of last month'sspecial offer on its Steamed Butterfish, HifumiRestaurant has extended the value deal into this month.For $13.95, diners receive a 4- to 5-pound filet of fresh

Alaskan butterfish that’s been marinated in a specialhomemade shoyu sauce, stir-fried in soybean oil andgreen onions, and steamed until fork-tender and oh-soflavorful.“We stir-fry first to make the taste (of the fish) come

out,” says manager Elsie Chang. “It's different and pop-ular with everyone.”The fish is topped with a mash of black beans and

garlic and served with a side portion of soft tofu andsteamed vegetables.Miso soup, tsukemono and a bowl of white or brown

rice that’s refillable free of charge completes the heartymeal. Chang says many repeat customers like to add ona side of the popular Shrimp Tempura and MixedVegetable Tempura to their meals.“Our shrimp is the biggest, bigger than everybody

Hifumi’s got a realcatch for patrons

More and more places now offersmaller portions for higherprices, be it at the grocery

store, the movie theater or even thegas station.But in an economy where you pay more for less, Hifumi

Restaurant is actually offering more food choices for a small-er price tag.The 43-year-old Japanese restaurant recently began offer-

ing smaller versions of its already popular (and affordable)entrees. Included on the new mini menu are Chicken Teriyaki,Chicken Katsu, Chicken Karaage, Pork Teriyaki, Ton Katsu,Beef Teriyaki, Salmon, Ahi, Ahi Sashimi, Oyako Ni (chickensimmered in bamboo shoots, ground onions and topped withegg, green onions and nori), three pieces of Shrimp Tempuraor eight pieces Vegetable Tempura, each priced at $5.95.Unagi, Unagi Shiitake Tofu Tama (unagi, shiitake mush-

rooms and tofu simmered in egg) and Katsu Tama (ton katsusimmered with bamboo shoots, egg, ground and greenonions and topped with nori) also are available at smallersizes for $6.95 each.“People now like smaller portions, but they want more choices,”

explains manager Elsie Chang of the decision to downsize. “Theycan choose a small portion like shrimp, sashimi, chicken, pork, alltogether. We think this way is better so people can choose more ofwhat they want.”Chang also says fewer people are ordering rice and are instead

requesting noodles and salad as accompaniments to their maincourses. To fill that need, udon or soba noodles can be added toentrees for an extra $2.50, salad or miso soup cost $1, and fourpieces of gyoza also are available for $2.“Some people like some salad and some rice and some noo-

dles, it's up to you. It's easy so people can order exactly what theywant,” Chang says with a smile.“But the local people, our regular customers, they still like our

traditional menu,” she quickly adds. “And the rice and the shrimp;that's why they come.”

This family-owned establishmentserves up mouthwatering Cantonese cui-sine, with a hint of Northern Chinese flairthat has been drawing loyal diners in for

decades. OwnersCowan and FaithWong first openedthe doors to On Onin Kapahulu in 1980,before relocating toits current location20 years later.

And while themenu is vast here —more than 200 items,to be exact — truthbe told, it’s quiteeasy for me to pick apremier entree ofchoice. The MaboTofu with Rice(imagine a large portion of rice servedwith house-made mabo tofu) has been aweakness of mine since childhood.

“For those who aren’t too familiar withthis Chinese dish, it’s chopped tofu with adelectable red sauce and ground pork,”says restaurant manager Norman Wong.“We sell order after order on a regularbasis.”

Mabo Tofu ($5.95) is proof that whenyou pair the simplest of foods such as tofu

with an assortment ofamazing spices andgravy, it’s a match madein heaven!

Sumo RamenWith six locations

islandwide, Sumo Ramenis one of my faves whenit comes to comfort food.Enter two of my longtimefavorite Sumo selections:

Mabo Tofu Ramen ($6.25) and Cold Tofu($3.50).

“The Mabo Tofu Ramen has been on themenu for a while now and it featuresground pork, stir-fried with tofu, garlic,chili pepper and other seasonings, thengarnished with green onions. After wecook the ramen, we top it off with theMabo Tofu,” says Ken Wong, who owns theMarket City Shopping Center location,along with his wife, Cindy.

Dining enthusiasts like myself are

enthralled by the thrilling taste of this dish— the zesty spices and the smooth textureof the tofu is what it’s all about. However,if you’re not hot on spice, the chefs hereare more than happy to prepare yourorder mild.

Experiencing a gigantic appetite? Optfor the Mabo Tofu Ramen Combo ($8.50)that comes complete with ramen, friedrice and four-piece gyoza. Delicious!

Sometimes it’s the simplest things in lifethat mean the most, and the Cold Tofu isan irresistible option when you want totake a break from rich, island cuisine.

This modest appetizer is your best betwhen craving something light and refresh-ing. This classic starter showcases a freshblock of tofu sitting in a special shoyusauce and garnished with dried fish flakesand green onions.

So what are you waiting for? Go out andget a mouthful of tofu at Sumo Ramen!

Preparation for “mojo” marinade:• Peel and mash garlic with cumin seedusing mortar and pestle• Extract juice from lemons• Mix lemon juice with garlic/cumin-seedmixture• Add 1/8 cup of olive oil• Add black pepper andabout 1 teaspoon salt• Cut all excess fat frompork and poke holesthroughout (about 1-inch to1 ½-inches deep)• Rub mojo over pork, mak-ing sure to have it penetrateall holes. Put in shallowroasting pan and pour anyremaining mojo over pork.Liberally add salt and blackpepper. Cover with alu-minum foil and marinate inrefrigerator overnight or atleast 3-4 hours so that pork absorbs asmuch marinade as possible. This will ten-derize the pork and blend all flavors.• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.• Roast covered pork for approximately 20minutes per pound or until internal tem-perature reaches 165 degrees. (Removefoil for the last 30 minutes to brown.) Letstand 15 minutes before slicing.

• Lower heat and add bay leaf. Cookover medium heat, adding hot water asneeded in order to keep beans covered.

• Using mortar and pestle, mash garlicand cumin seeds.

• Cover bottom of 10-inch frying panwith olive oil.

• Sauté bell pepper and onion untilonions are almost translucent.

• Add garlic/cumin-seed mixture and con-tinue frying until all ingredients are thor-oughly blended.

• Add to beans and stir well. Add morehot water, if needed. Lower heat to sim-mer. Add about 2 teaspoons of salt andblack pepper to taste. Simmer untilbeans are soft.
