The recipes we chose this week are recipes that we would commonly order when getting Thai takeaway:
Recipe 1 – Massaman Beef Curry (from Skinnymixers)
Image used with permission from Skinnymixers, due to the less-than-fabulous-didn’t-do-it-justice photo that we took.
Yummmm. This is so delicious! Within the recipe, the massaman curry paste is enough for you to make 4-5 curries out of it! We have made this twice and it is really very tasty. The second time we made it we used a much bigger piece of lemongrass. We preferred the less-lemongrass option, but it was still delicious. The second time we also added star anise as this is included at our local Thai restaurant. Delicious! We used 2-3cm cubes of beef for slow cooking.
Recipe 2 – Chicken Tom Ka Gai (from Super Kitchen Machine)
This is a soup-er delicious flavoursome soup that we think you are going to love! Some of the tweaks we made out of necessity include: we made our own garlic-chilli paste by simply grinding up a couple of cloves of garlic and chilli and we used ginger rather than galangal. We also added a bit of fish sauce at the end. So easy to make, and really delicious! Enjoy!
Recipe 3 – Quick Thermomix Pad Thai (from The 4 Blades)
The original name that Bec came up with for this recipe was ‘Quick Un-Authentic Pad Thai’. Joe thought this was an awful idea. This recipe is quick, makes a lot and is very budget-friendly. It’s un-authentic in that we don’t use sugar and we chop the vegetables up rather than leaving them in matchstick form.
Here are some cool tips from this podcast…
– by roasting garlic cloves in their skins you can create the most deliciously mellow garlic flavour which is perfect for curries and dips
– to remove the skins of roasted garlic cloves, use a sharp knife to slice the flat part of the garlic away and then slice up the length of the clove into the skin, and remove.
– we sterilise our jars by rinsing a clean jar in water and then sit it on a piece of towelling paper in the microwave for 1 minute. We pour boiling water over the lid.
