| Interesting and good, sweet and spicy.
I made a half recipe and cooked in two individual casserole dishes. Used Thai red curry paste for the "medium curry paste".
The recipes says you can make a "stylish starter" by cooking in 4 individual ramekins. Since the recipe serves 4, those are some pretty serious starters. Maybe 6 or 8 would be a better number. |
| The kebabs were good, and the smashed potatoes with crème fraîche, chopped cilantro and red chili, and spring onions were a treat. |
| Tasty, but didn't make very good patties. This can be my problem, since I've always had a problem with them.
- Used two 140g cans of crab, which left me a bit short there.
- Didn't want to use up my fresh bread, so used about half the amount of panka for the "filling".
- Used a store-bought nem sauce rather than making the chilli jam.
Two of us piggies ate all 12 patties between us. Probably this would be a better starter with three patties each for four people. |
| This was quite good. Not sure it's "budget" -- how many people have things like rice noodles, sweet chili sauce, fresh parsley, and fresh coriander sitting around the house? (Well, I usually do, but I don't think I'm a typical cook.)
It's also fast, which is nice.
- My boneless chicken breasts were also skinless. That worked fine.
- My rice noodles do not get "done" sitting 10min in just-boiled water. They need to simmer for a bit. This isn't a problem.
Served with the Stir-Fried Ginger Broccoli (recipe on bottom of page) as suggested. |
| The salmon was ok, good enough, but nothing special.
But we both liked the lime courgettes/zucchini, even DH who is not a zuke fan. Long thin strips sautéed, then tossed with lime zest, lime juice, and chopped mint. Yum. |
| This was a hit.
There were no pork scallops in the shop, so I used turkey scallops instead. The filling was a little soupier than paste. I spooned what wouldn't stay in the rolls on top before baking.
Very delicious.
I forgot to make the Minted Yogurt, but neither of us missed it.
...
Made again, still a hit. Again with turkey scallop; veal scallop might be nice. Pork scallops would be good if I can ever find them.
Really, the rolls with the soupy paste/filling are so tasty, no extra sauce is needed. |
