Recipe Reviews

  • Sapa Sui (Samoan Chop Sui)
    Review By: Liz Chun
    This recipe was very good. I used the canned corned beef, cut the salt down quite a bit, but did everything else as the recipe directed. It was sooo good. I will use this recipe quite often. It's one of my favorite recipes!
  • Sweet Sour Ribs
    Review By: Victor
    When I came upon this recipe what caught my attention is the fact it required no Pineapple juice and chunks to make it like the other recipes listed in Alohaworld. Naturally the absence of the Pineapple ingredient or juice from pickles caused me to become skeptical of this recipe. However I decided to give it a try. I chose to sprinkle garlic power on the ribs instead of using freshly diced garlic, which gave the ribs a nice texture (Like baked Korean ribs) after being fried to a golden brown. The recipe did not specify White or Apple Cider vinegar, I have a preference for Apple Cider and used it. Instead of Ground ginger I used peeled and diced ginger. All the ingredients except the 1 cup of water, were blended in a mini food processor, mixed with the water then poured over the ribs. I tossed ribs to make sure they all got coated before turning on the heat. Cooking time was not exact, so I relied on experience from other recipes that used vinegar and simmered the ribs for 1-hour. I was pleasantly surprised of the Ono results! This recipe is now part of my collection. Mahalo to the author!
  • Beef Teriyaki
    Review By: Poidog
    I was looking for a simple recipe to marinate the beef I wanted to add to my stir fry veggie dish. I used all the ingredients called out in the recipe (including the MSG) and was delighted to find our wonderful this recipe was! I used boneless chuck steak and slice them into thin 1-inch slices. Mixed the sauce and combined with beef in a 1-quart ziplok bag for 30 minutes in the frige. Instead of baking I stir fried the beef in a wok on medium heat with olive or peanut oil. I liked how the teriyaki flavor has a good balance; there no ingredient that overpowers the others. The teriyaki beef was an INSTANT hit with my family! This recipe is a keeper!!!
