"Playwrights are like men who have been dining for a month in an Indian restaurant. After eating curry night after night, they deny the existence of asparagus."
Peter Ustinov

Asian recipes have draw on thousands of years of experience to produce a rich variety of spicy and healthy recipes.

"The dishes of the present day are very light, and they have a particular delicacy and perfume. The secret has been discovered of enabling us to eat more and to eat better, as also to digest more rapidly....The new cookery is conductive to health, to good temper, and to long life....Who could enumerate all the dishes of the new cuisine? It is an absolutely new idiom. I have tasted viands prepared in so many ways and fashioned with such art that I could not imagine what they were."
Louis Sebastien Mercier

Preparation

This is from one of Martin Yan's books... I haven't tried this, but
it looks pretty tasty. In general, I don't care for Yan's recipes,
although I do get a kick out of his show. I don't know what it is,
but the few things I've made from this book just don't seem to quite
make it.

1. To make crust: Dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let set
for 10 minutes. Stir in oil and salt; add flour gradually. Knead
dough for 10 to 15 minutes or until smooth and elastic. Place in
greased bowl, cover and let rise in a warm place free from drafts
until double in bulk (1 1/2 to 2 hours). Punch down dough and roll
into thin crust. Make 2 pizzas of 12" diameter, 1/4" thickness. Place
crust on baking sheet.

2. Combine ingredients for sauce and set aside.

3.Heat oil over high heat; put in garlic and ginger, stir for 5
seconds. Add remaining ingredients, except hoisin sauce, catsup and
sesame oil; reduce heat to medium-high. Stir-fry for 1 to 2 minutes.
Add hoisin sauce and catsup and stir-fry for another minute.

4. Spread sauce on dough, then top with stir-fried vegetables and
meat; brush sesame oil on top.

5. Bake pizza at 375F for 15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve and
enjoy.

REMARKS: One cup of sausage is equal to 3 sausages. For a classier
pizza, add 1/2 cup sliced prawns For added hotness, put 1/2 teaspoon
hot chili oil into the sauce.
