开估了 And the answer IS.....

昨天贴出南瓜的照片,是盖住的,结果妹妹和Winniepooh立刻质问它的内心秘密,哈哈,答应在下一个post开谜,tata, 只不过是泰国绿咖喱吧了!用金瓜来做雕刻真好好玩,更可利用外壳来做食物容器,颇精致吧!

Disappointed?It is only green curry inside the pumpkin...cehhh...and you thought it was something grand??? Heee, actually I needed the pumpkin pulp to make the prawn dish and remembered someone used the pumpkin shell to hold beef stew which looked beautiful. So I tried my hand at carving the pumpkin, and make it a rehearsal for this year's Halloween Jack O lantern! Not too bad, right?

Thai Green Curry with Chicken
Ingredients:

chicken fillet 500 g, diced
green curry paste 3 big tbsp
onion 2, minced small
Thai brinjal 200 g
coconut milk 125g
rock sugar 3 big cubes, to taste
lemon grass 3 stalks, bruised
basil 5 stalks

Method:
1. Season chicken with soya sauce, sugar, sesame seed oil and pepper.
2. Fry the green curry paste with oil till fragrance, add in onion and fry for awhile. Add in rock sugar, lemon grass and fry till smells nice; if too dry can add a bit of water.
3. Add in chicken and cook till almost done, then add in brinjal.
4. Add in basil leaves and coconut milk and adjust seasoning to your taste.

Notes:
1. The spiciness of this curry depends on the brand of green curry, so adjust the amount yourself.
2. Paste tends to be very salty so quite a bit of rock sugar might be needed, taste test.
3. You can replace coconut milk with milk or evaporated milk, of course it won't be as nice.
