I absolutely adore versatile dishes. The type that after a bit of tweaking will transform into another amazing dish.
Like a lady's wardrobe - the one piece when match with different accessories will transform into a completely new outfit.
When the general economy is lean, I'd like to maximize each ingredient/dish to their best potentials. Who says we need eat like a pauper when there are so much choices you can create from one.
This got my lazy brain start thinking ...
