My friend ask me "why on your blog I can't find anything about food?" :) so there will be about food as well :) I will write from time to time about it.
The question was from an author of a blog about cooking, you can find it here http://konwaliewkuchni.blogspot.com/. Blog is in polish, but pictures are great, and you can always use google tranlator to read it :)
coming back to food...
I fell in love with a thai cousine, it's so light and full od flavors :) I decided to try to cook something. I bought a book Thai cousine - Food Lovers, delicious and simple recipes for every day.
So the first recipe -
2 tbsp. soya sauce
1 small pumpkin
2 cm piece of fresh ginger
1 onion
2 tbsp. dried jelly ear fungus
500 ml vegetable broth
1 red chili
400 ml coconut milk
salt & freshly milled pepper
2-3 tomatoes
basil, to garnish
Cut the chicken into strips and marinate in soya sauce. Wash, deseed and dice the pumpkin. Peel and slice the onion. Peel and chop the ginger. Chop the jelly ear fungus and soak in a little of hot water.
Put pumpkin, oniom, ginger into a pan with the vegetable broth. Slit the chili open lenghtways and add to the pan. Cook for about 20 minutes with a lid on the pan. Than remove the chili and take half of the vegetables out of the stock.
Finely puree the rest of the vegetables with the stock. Drain the jelly ear fungus and add to the soup with the coconut milk. Bring to boil. Boil for 2-3 minutes, than return the vegetables to the soup.
Deseed the tomatoes and cut it into pieces. Add to the soup with the chicken. Briefly bring to boil, than cook gently for 7 minutes.
Season to taste and ladle into bowls. Serve garnished with basil.
