Until this recipe I had never cooked with pearl onions. They are a bit of effort to remove the skins but can come off rather quickly with this method.
- Slice off ends and place pearl onions in boiling or hot water and then cool. The skins should easily peel off.
My friend had some leftover fresh herbs that I used to season the onions. I just used the entire stalk of herb and then removed before serving. If you prefer, you can chop the herbs before cooking and leave in the dish.
ENJOY!

Not quite sure where this idea came from today but it is certainly a keeper. I like the melding of flavors and textures.
You can serve on fresh greens, as pictured, or alone as a side dish. I also topped mine with pine nuts but for those with nut allergies, they are definitely optional.
ENJOY!

I have made coconut rice in previous recipes on this blog. If you try just one, please let it be this recipe. The pineapple and cilantro add just the right amount of complementing tastes to make this dish memorable.
Here in Southern California, zucchini and summer squash are always available. If you can’t find any in your area you can substitute another vegetable such as broccoli, carrots and/or cauliflower.
ENJOY!
