I searched, and I couldn't find any topics that asked people to submit their favorite foods from their home countries. I thought it would be cool if you could give us your favorite food from your home country, and if possible, submit a recipe for that food.
I'm from India, so my personal favorite food from there is pau bhaaji. It's kind of like a burger, only the filling in between the bread is a vegetable mix. I'll try to find a recipe later.

Ireland -- Irish soda bread is my favorite. Corned beef and cabbage is a traditional dish there, and I like that a lot too.
Norway -- I don't like much from Norway. I guess Lefse is okay if it's not plain.

I'm Filipina but the Philippines it isn't my home country.
I like Lumpiang Shanghai, Pancit, Lechon Paksiw, Lechon de Carajay, Arroz Caldo (sp?), Fresh Lumpia, Siapao & Pandesal bread.
The desserts I like are Cassava Cake, Mamom (special & regular), Ensaymada, Polvoron & Bibingka Malakit (I think it's called).
There are a lot more that I like but I either don't know the names of them or can't think of them right now.

Chinese food (got a whole bunch):Fried rice - has to be very good.! the type of fried rice makes a difference!
These noodles (forgot the name. "zhee mien" in cantonese. dont know the name of noodles)
Dim sum - I've ate a lot of the same dim sum usually in chinese restaurants but if i try a new type, its good no matter what it is. not afraid of the taste.

you should. so when you get to go to the phils (or if you live there) buy the ones where they sell in the streets. (you know what i mean right?)
oh yes, i can't forget palabok. & add ariscaldo.
it's a good thing my mom can cook all of those. except fishballs.

fried rice gives me headaches. its too un original.
DIM SUM! ill eat it everyday and never get sick of it.
OH OH!!! and i absolutely love the bread bakeries in taiwan and hong kong. its so yummy! i always get the gread with the shreded beef in the middle.
OMGAH. and bubble tea. its the best thing invented, EVEr.
