Flashback Friday - St Patrick's Day Eats

This post originally appeared on Minxeats.com on March 17, 2014.

-----------------------------------------
Despite our last name, we are not Irish in any way, shape, or form. Consequently, we don't partake in drinking green beer or dressing up like leprechauns on St Patrick's Day. And we normally don't eat corned beef and cabbage, at least not together. So the recipes I'm going to share with you now are only vaguely related to the holiday. Around these parts, it's as good as it gets.

"Cabbage," aka bubble and squeak made with brussels sprouts.

Korean-style Rubenadas, aka empanadas stuffed with corned beef and kimchi.

Even better than making your own corned beef at home - go to Attman's and get a pound or three and feast on that.

Lamb stew with Asian flavors and sauteed cabbage

And finally, one of my all-time favorite ways to eat cabbage - okonomiyaki. Nobody will tell if you want to put corned beef in it, too..

Celebrating St Patrick's Day

I'm not Irish, not a fan of green beer, not a big drinker in general. So the way I like to celebrate St Patrick's Day is...to eat.

How about some nice multi-ethnic goodness involving corned beef, or in the case of the last pic, an Irish-themed restaurant?

A corned-beef sandwich on home-made bread...

...Korean-style Reubenadas...

...Poached eggs with cauliflower purée and frizzled corned beef...

...or an order of Calamari from Slainte (or anything else, for that matter) would really float my boat tomorrow.
