  • @RennAndJuliet You have a seriously warped perception of food culture. I think snarky little comments on food authenticity should be backed up by historical context because if you knew anything about tartare you would know that it is often traced back to Mongolia and Attila the Hun, hence the term "tartare/tartar". So yes, aside from the "Asian spoon", as you deftly called it, the techniques, the ingredients and the history are Asian.

  • what makes this an asian dish exactly?

  • can you make the tartar with smoked salmon instead?

  • @RennAndJuliet But you're right, this isn't an authentic (whatever authentic means to you) Asian dish. And I'm sure he is aware of that. He simply called this recipe Asian as an informative title. Clearly, it is fusion and it doesn't take a genius to figure that out. =]

  • @RennAndJuliet And if you're talking about the Shepard's pie, then it's not quite right either. Many dishes have similar ingredients and just because you put two ingredients together won't make two dishes the same. It's okay, I think you're confused =]

  • @RennAndJuliet I don't understand what you're trying to say. Are you trying to say that to stir fry mashed potatoes and beef in a wok will make it Asian or it will make it a Shepard's pie? If you're trying to say that it makes it Asian then it's not quite right because now you're talking about cookware rather than ingredients.

  • @LinhLinh oh! so i guess if we, for example, stirfry mashed potatoes and beef together using a wok, then we'd have sheperd's pie, since those are the ingredients ^_^ fusion i like i like but regardless of whether it's asian or not (and asian inspired using asian ingredients is clearly not asian), the tartare still looks delish.

  • that looks SWIMMINGLY. i bet that would FLOOD into my mouth :3

  • @RennAndJuliet It's because ginger and coriander are two very common ingredients in Asian dishes. But it's okay if you didn't know that =]
