Wow! Those look great! My family's actually getting bored with my
ever-changing (but fairly predictable) green curries, red curries, yellow
curries. Time for a change. Thanks. btw, asparagus is in season here,
and is great in the stir fries.

My fallback have been variations on oyster sauced beef, pad thai, red
curries and I do this one spicy eggplant thing that's really good. So I had
to try something new, too. ;-)

it says "ot" in the header, get over it.

Thai Spicy Eggplant

1 C veg oil
2-3 Asian eggplant rough cut
garlic
red chile paste
1/2 onion rough cut ( sweets are good)
1/2 red pepper cut into strips
2 t soya
1 e sugar
1/2 water
1/2 t cornstarch
1 t water
20 leaves thai basil

heat oil, fry eggplants until somewhat fork-tender. Remove, drain on paper
towel. Discard excess, then start all over in wok with garlic and chili
paste, then add onion and red pepper. Return eggplant. Then add sugar, soya
and water and stir fry for 1-2 minutes. Then add 2/3 of the basil leaves
and the cornstarch and water, stir fry for one minute, until sauce has
thickened. Garnish with additional red pepper strips. This is one of my
favorites.

Jeez, take a pill, I only asked,Thanks for the helpful, informative and
friendly replies guys. Thought this list was friendly and good humored
and not populated by cryptic and self important jerks trying to be
smart. Apparently I was wrong. wont bother in future.

Ray, you take a pill. Some of have been hanging out here for , umm, years,
and not only that, we know each other in real life, and we ride together!
Paladin and I happy to share an interest in thai food in addition to an
appetite for single track. So what??!!! This is an unmoderated forum, you
need to expect OT chatter. Have you by chance read the amb-faq? Not that any
of that will help in this particular situation. ;-)
http://www.schnauzers.ws/ambfaq.html I'll certainly remember all this if
you ever need a technical fabrics specialist...

off to hose the bike off now after today's ride...

and rummage the fridge for leftover thai tidbits...

To be honest, I wasnt complaining about OT chatter, I was just curious
if there was any relevance, didnt intend or plan to offend any body,
just didnt expect to be subjected to smart alec replies just for
asking. Just because you've known and ridden and typed together for
years so what, that does not excuse elitism and or rudeness.

I got a polite reply from gcmschem, thanks

The two cook books that taught me everything are

Simply Thai Cooking by Wandee Young and Bryan Ayanoglu
Keo's Thai Cuisine by Keo Sananikone

Both books are filled with mostly simple to prepare recipes, and great
photos.

If you shop at an asian market, everything is both cheaper and better
quality than the condiments you'll get at a supermarket. (lots cheaper!!)

If you keep these basics around the house,you can make just about anything

Rice stick noodles
cans of coconut milk, straw mushroom, bamboo shoots
fish sauce, oyster sauce, soya sauce, red chili paste
prepared pad thai sauce
bonus items: lime leaf in the freezer, red curry paste,

bon appetit!

Got any more of them pills?
This day is just dragging on and on. When I'm done at the office I get
to go and video my nephew's piano recital because his parents are gone
and it MUST be taped, and by me (they don't trust grandma - I even
offered to lend her my cam).

Matt (now I have that crappy Huey Lewis song "I want a new drug" in my
head - ugh)

Hope you don't mind, but I've copied and filed these too.

You know, I was in Thailand for a couple of weeks last November. Went
trekking. I must admit that I had a hard time coping with your everyday
Thai food even though I love making it at home. There is something
about the combination of the smell of fermented fish, mushy zucchini
-like vegetables and the taste and texture of handfuls of almost raw
green chillies on gluggy rice that is quite different from Western
versions of the dishes.
I almost stopped back in Thailand on the way home to do a 5 day cooking
course in Chaing Mai but it didn't pan out with cost/flights.
