Lamb kebabs with minted yoghurt dip

Posted by on Jan 26, 2010 in Barbecue, Food Porn, Main courses, Recipes | 2 comments

Here's a great recipe which is a feast for the eyes as well as your belly. The lamb is marinaded in rosemary and garlic and left overnight to soak up the flavour - this is a must. The vegetables all sweeten up nicely when you cook them on the grill, or I suppose you could even cook this on the barbie when it's nice and sunny!

A friend made this from scratch for lunch when I called in unexpectedly. I watched with pleasure, ate with increasing pleasure and returned home to try my hand and share my pleasure.... so I hope you will try it out and enjoy!

Tom Yam Goong

Posted by on Dec 4, 2009 in Appetisers, Food Porn, Main courses, Recipes | 1 comment

I've made Tom Yam Goong for you, a Thai classic, which translates as hot and sour prawn soup. I got the recipe from renowned Thai chef and cookery school owner, Somphon Nabnian, many years ago when I had the privilege of attending his cooking classes in Chiang Mai in Thailand. By the way, I've given the recipe in its original form, but even I baulked at 20 chillies and I love spicy Thai food. Just go easy on them and remember it's a lot easier to add something than it is to take it away.

I'd never had Nasi Goreng before, until my friend Trav treated myself and Dan to dinner last week. It's amazing! He also served chicken/beef skewers in a home-made satay sauce with the dish - we were certainly spoiled that night. I sat him down and demanded he give me this Indonesian recipe so I could share it with everyone.
