Page 14 n THE ASIAN REPORTER RECIPE An emergency care research study of bleeding in the brain. Providence Brain and Spine Institute is conducting a research study to study bleeding in the brain, also called intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Most of this bleeding occurs within a few hours of onset of symptoms. The brain injury from ICH is usually very severe, and there is currently no treatment for ICH that is proven to improve outcome. The research study is testing if a medication can slow bleeding. Some patients may be enrolled before consent if unconscious or a family member or representative is not rapidly available. Before the research study starts, we will consult with the community. We welcome your feedback and questions.

In Thailand, they might be pork slathered in coconut cream, or in Singapore, they could be charred chicken smothered in spicy peanut sauce. For this recipe from our book COOKish, which limits recipes to just six ingredients without sacrificing flavor, we decided to highlight the lesser-known but still familiar flavors of Myanmar. In that country, tucked between India and Thailand, beef skewers commonly are marinated then basted in a tasty slurry that features turmeric, fish sauce, garlic, and ginger, among other seasonings. In the marinade, we use curry powder for a spice-cabinet shortcut as well as lime zest to brighten the sauce. Grated fresh ginger and garlic add plenty of kick, too. If you like, trim the ends off two medium shallots, then peel and halve them lengthwise; before cooking, cap each beef SHORTCUT SKEWERS.

Broiling will char the shallots’ outer layers and the interiors will be sweet and tender, a nice complement to the beef. Serve with fragrant basmati or jasmine rice.

Stir together the oil, fish sauce, ginger, garlic, curry powder, lime zest, and a pinch of pepper. In a medium bowl, toss the steak with half the seasoning paste. Scrunch the meat onto metal skewers, adding the halved shallots to the ends, if using, then arrange the skewers on a rimmed baking sheet.
