It is essentially a custard made from curried steamed fish. A non curried set of ingredients is included as an "afterthought", though to avoid repetition I won't repeat the method - I leave that to the experience and imagination of the lovers of bland food. In Thailand this is steamed in little cups made from banana leaves, pinned together with tooth picks, but you could just as well use ramekin bowls.</p> <p></p><blockquote>2 eggs<br />1 pound white fish (cod), cut into small bite sized chunks<br />5 tablespoon finely chopped phak bung (swamp cabbage)<br />6 tablespoon <a name="B000EI2LLO" id="amzn_cl_link_0" target="_blank" href="http://amazon.com/gp/product/B000EI2LLO?ie=UTF8&tag=althfo-20&link_code=em1&camp=212341&creative=384049&creativeASIN=B000EI2LLO&adid=e2e02ae4-10d4-4a3c-bf08-4b5152988f3e">red curry paste</a><br />6 tablespoon finely chopped, freshly toasted peanuts<br />3 tablespoon finely chopped bai makrut (kaffir lime leaves)<br />6 tablespoon thick coconut milk<br />2 tablespoon fish sauce<br />2 tablespoon corn starch<br />2 tablespoon prik ki nu daeng (<a name="B000VEOEK2" id="amzn_cl_link_1" target="_blank" href="http://amazon.com/gp/product/B000VEOEK2?ie=UTF8&tag=althfo-20&link_code=em1&camp=212341&creative=384049&creativeASIN=B000VEOEK2&adid=6c874d72-92d7-42fa-8ae1-19081325be32">red birdseye chilis</a>) julienned</blockquote><p></p> <p>Mix all the ingredients but the peanuts, julienned chilis, phak bung and fish in a food processor.

This is a curry that is best if you have an angler in the family. You can probably prepare it with anything that you catch that doesn't eat you before you get it on the plate. I particularly like it done with catfish. If you don't have access to fresh caught fish, you can use any shop bought fish.

In a blender or food processor, place a cup of water, the fish sauce, shallots, garlic, thinly sliced prik ki nu and fermented shrimp paste. Blend to a coarse paste, and add to 4 cups of water in a saucepan and bring to a boil.

Thailand shares many recipes with surrounding countries, as this is also the case with Satay which is immensely popular in Indonesia, Malaysia and the southern provinces of Thailand.<br /><br />Satay is also a popular Thai street food, as it can be found around Thailand sold from push-cars or motorcycle sidecars. But now try to make our own Satay to impress our employers, friends, girlfriends, boyfriends, wifes, husbands or family in Law.<br /><br />Slice the chicken breast (ไก่เลือกตัวที่ไม่เป็นไข้หวัดนกค่ะ) finely, width approximately 3 cm. Pound together, or blend in a blender, coriander seeds (ลูกผักชี), Cumin seeds (ลูกยี่หร่า), pepper (พริกไทย), tumeric (ขมิ้น), curry powder (ผงกะหรี่), galangal (ข่า), lemon grass (ตะไคร้), salt (เกลือ) and garlic (กระเทียม). Pour the blended ingredients into the coconut milk. Add sugar and vegetable oil and blend again so that all ingredients are well mixed.<br /><br />Add the chicken sliced and marinate for 2 hours, tread the chicken slices onto the skewers. Pour the marinating sauce into a pot and heat until boiling.<br /><br />Place the chicken slices over a charcoal grill (barbecue) and apply the sauce to the chicken while turning over. When cooked through, serve with satay sauce and cucumber sauce.<br /><br />We hope that you will enjoy your own made Satay and think about our website, of course any failure to make it aroi aroi will not be our fault.

Thai Cuisine is known for its balance of five fundamental flavors in each dish or the overall meal - hot (spicy), sour, sweet, salty and bitter (optional). Although popularly considered as a single cuisine, Thai food would be more accurately described as four regional cuisines corresponding to the four main regions of the country: Northern, Northeastern (or Isan), Central and Southern. Southern curries, for example, tend to contain coconut milk and fresh turmeric, while northeastern dishes often include lime juice. Thai cuisine has been greatly influenced by the cuisine of its neighboring and nearby countries, especially India, China, Malaysia, and Laos.<br /><br />Thai food is known for its enthusiastic use of fresh (rather than dried) herbs and spices as well as fish sauce. Thai food is popular in many Western countries especially in Australia, New Zealand, some countries in Europe such as the United Kingdom, as well as the United States, and Canada.Web adminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12301173645865976062noreply@blogger.com0
