Beef and scallion "negimaki" stir-fry AND Parsley Potatoes

My sister beat me to making this one so we had high hopes. WE WERE NOT DISAPPOINTED!

The Beef and scallion "negimaki" stir-fry was incredibly flavorful We used portabello mushrooms instead of shiitake which was just lovely. The mushrooms were the tastiest part of the beef dish -- soaked up all that broth goodness and exploded in our mouths with flavor. All-in-all a really traditional recipe but who says traditional can't be delicious and healthy too!

The Parsley Potatoes were also simple to make and probably a pretty standard type of recipe too. I suspect the temptation to slather butter on them might be hard to resist for some people but we stuck with the plan. I have lost 13 pounds in the last three weeks by eating from this cookbook -- why fight it? Besides, they were just as good without the extra salt and butter.

If you need further proof that this meal was incredibly delicious, I'll quote from the teenage giant, "Is there more?"
