Nutan Brown’s

WALL OF FAME ...helping you is what I do

Nutan Brown was our best choice for our home search. We were not living in Toronto and needed someone who quickly understood our family’s needs and was prepared for our visits.

Nutan is very good at listening and finding the right fit. After we looked at a number of homes we were struggling with a decision. Her simple, but insightful observation about the home we looked happiest in led us to buy that very house. And she was right – it did make us happy and still delights us. Nutan was unable to come to offer night as she had another offer night for a home she was selling. In her place, her brother, Anil, joined us for the offer. He skillfully and honestly handled the tense negotiations for the house with great confidence and finesse.

Anil and Nutan make a great team. Nutan really knows the market and her expertise, experience, patience and insights are a perfect fit for anyone in the Toronto market. We will definitely work with Nutan again and highly recommend.

Sincerely,

Celia and Tarun Purchased in Swansea

Buying or Selling a home is a very personal decision. It involves weeks, even months, working with your real estate representative, building a relationship based on trust, confidence and exceptional service.

Thank you for the Opportunity!

Korean

STEAK TACOS WITH CUCUMBER SALAD AND SUMAC PICKLED ONIONS

CAROLYN COHEN BA, BScOT Founder/Chef/Recipe Developer

DELICIOUSDISH Cooking School specializes in Whole Food Home Cooking, Meal Planning, Recipe Developing and Healthy Eating. #CookAtHome

love tacos and I love Korean flavours. This combination is irresistible and a fantastic easy summer entertaining dish! Both skirt steak and flank steak need a long marinating time and need to be sliced super thin once cooked. The sumac in the pickled onion adds a fantastic red colour and sour flavour that goes really nicely in the tacos. You can buy sumac in a ground powder form in a specialty shop. It comes from the sumac bush found in the middle east, the berry is dried and ground, it has a lemony flavor.

INGREDIENTS

DIRECTIONS

• 1 skirt steak or flank steak

• Blend all the marinade ingredients together in a blender or food processor, leave a little texture.

• 12-20 small corn tortillas • 1 avocado, peeled and diced STEAK MARINADE

• 1 bunch green onions, white parts only or 1/2 a small onion • 1/3 cup toasted sesame seeds • 3 cloves garlic • 1" piece of fresh ginger, washed (no need to peel) • 1/3 cup low sodium tamari or soy sauce • 1/4 cup toasted sesame oil • 3 tbsp mirin (rice wine) CUCUMBER SALAD

• Place in a zip lock bag, place steak in the bag. Marinate overnight or up to 2 days.

• When ready to grill... remove meat from the fridge for 1 hour before grilling.

• To make the Cucumber Salad: Slice the cucumber in half in the width so that it is easier to handle, take each half and slice into half or quarters in the length. Now slice into thin pieces, I do this on a slicer so I get super thin slices. Place slices in a medium size mixing bowl. Drizzle the vinegar and oil over the cucumbers, sprinkle with the salt and sugar (if using), mix and toss together very well. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, toss. Let marinate at room temp for about 30 minutes or longer before serving. Toss again before serving.

• To make the Sumac Pickled Onions: mix the onions in a medium bowl with the red wine vinagar, sumac and salt. Mix well and let sit for 30 minutes or so.

• 1 English cucumber

• Turn your BBQ to high for 10-15 minutes. Once the grill is hot, turn it down to medium.

• 1/4 cup seasoned rice vinegar

• Remove the steak from the marinade and shake off excess.

• 1 tsp. sesame oil • 1/2 tsp kosher salt • Pinch of sugar, optional • Toasted black and white sesame seeds SUMAC PICKLED ONIONS

• 1/2 red onion, very finely sliced

• Place the meat on the grill. Cover the grill and cook the steak for about 4 minutes, flip and repeat.

• Allow steaks to “rest” (lightly covered in foil) on cutting board for 10 minutes before slicing.

• Slice thinly on an angle, serve a few pieces on soft corn tortillas, topped with Cucumber Salad, Sumac Pickled Onions and cubed avocado. DELICIOUSDISH

• 2 tbsp red wine vinegar • 1 tsp sumac • 1/2 tsp kosher salt

WAYS TO MAKE YOUR OLDER HOME

12

FEELNew

reaming of improving your home, but a major remodel isn't necessarily in the budget? It may seem basic, but a fresh coat of paint is an easy trick to give your home a new look. Try some of these simple, inexpensive paint projects that make for quick updates and keep the old-home charm.

PAI NT KITC H EN CAB I N E TS This is an economical way to transform an outdated kitchen into something timeless. Select a primer that is recommended for the type of surface you have, then remove the cabinet doors and hardware and label them for easier reassembly. Use painter's tape to protect the wall or backsplash tile and cover the countertop with plastic or poly-sheeting. Instead of the typical two-step process to apply poly-sheeting, try using Painter's Mate doublesided poly-hanging tape to make prep time a breeze.

C R E ATE AN ACCE NT WALL This focal point can be a powerful design move, breaking up the traditional look of having four same-coloured walls. Plus, it's an easy way to play with colour in a new way without committing to painting a whole room. When selecting the colour, the accent wall should complement the adjacent wall colour. When in doubt, paint your statement wall two shades darker than the rest.

R E VAM P D R AWER P U LL S AN D DOO R HAN D LE S Give your home a small but impactful refresh by updating worn door handles, drawer knobs and pulls. Instead of replacing everything, try repainting - all you need is a screwdriver to remove knobs and handles and a metal spray paint. Before painting, clean the hardware and lightly sand to ensure that paint adheres easily. Add a layer of clear lacquer after the paint dries to help prevent scratches. >>>

home dĂŠcor

PAI NT YO U R CE I LI N G If your home already has a fresh coat of paint, then look to other areas that could use a touch-up, such as the ceilings.

When repainting the ceiling, don't be afraid to add a pop of colour. Whether dramatic or subtle, adding colour to the fifth wall can alter the geometry of a room, tricking the eye and changing the feel of a space.

PRO TIP : Use a roller with extended reach to tackle high ceilings.

R EFR E S H TR I M Details such as moulding, trim and baseboards can seem relatively minor but create a significant impact. As these accents are the visual foundation for a space, you can change the look of any room by simply playing them up with a crisp white colour.
