Thai Green Vegetable Curry (4-6)

This Thai green vegetable curry is typical of the cooking found in the south of Thailand. You can use most vegetables- I used carrot instead of aubergine in the version pictured but do use the round thai aubergines or baby aubergines if you can find them. I also often substitute the home made thai green curry paste with ready made- using 2-4 tbsps depending on the strength. The recipe is from ” World Food Cafe” by Chris and Carolyn Calidicott.

Crispy Chilli Chicken (4)

This is a popular street food found everywhere in Nepal. It is a direct influence from the Indo- Chinese borders of the country and is usually served with Chow Mein and perhaps Hot and Sour Soup. This version is from ” Ayla” by Santosh Shah.

Pacific Lime Chicken (4)

An easy chicken recipe from Hawaii which i found in ” Cook Simple ” by Diana Henry. Serve this with rice and stir fried greens, or in warmer weather a mixed salad. The second Marinade is for a Spanish Catalan chicken, cooked in the same way but good with roast potatoes and a green salad.
