Thai Red Curry and Thai Cookbook Giveaway


I was tweeting with Thai Kitchen and talking Thai food as you do :-), when I got to thinking I love their products and Thai food why not ask if they would like to do a giveaway. They kindly agreed to send two of their Thai cookbooks to US readers.

I made this simple red curry the other day, curry pastes are very handy if you want to make a quick nutritious meal in 20 minutes.

Ingredients:

  • one pack of chicken
  • some frozen veg
  • about 3-4 tablespoon of red curry paste to taste
  • one can of coconut milk
  • a dash of fish sauce
  • a little sugar
  • 1/2 a red onion chopped
  • 2 cloves chopped garlic
  • one teaspoon ginger paste
Method:

  1. saute the chicken and onion with ginger and garlic for 10 minutes 
  2. then add the vegetables
  3. in a separate pan heat the coconut milk and slowly stir in the red curry paste, fish sauce and sugar till its warm and thoroughly mixed
  4. add this to the chicken and simmer for 15-20 minutes
  5. serve with rice





So for the giveaway just leave a comment and in a week I will pick a couple of winners at random. 

Good luck everyone

  3. Good luck with the giveaway. I always do Thai take-out (love it) and never cook it - I am stymied by the many ingredients!

  4. I love curries too, though I mainly cook Indian. I have visited Thailand and sampled their curries so I wouldn't mind a stab at the cookbook.

    Thanks for dropping by range warfare, it is always nice to meet a fellow Brit on these shores.
