Thai And Fusion Food

[kendo]

Now my wife like most Thai's really have a passion for food. She has lived in the UK with me for well over eight years and the first thing in the morning she wants to talk about is what are we going to have for dinner (she drives me absolutely nuts in a nice kinda way) I swear she must dream about food and then is just on a mission to bend my ear with it.

She has always been hooked on all the cooking programmes and when I see the note pad and pen come out I know she is going to ask me to take her shopping. There is nothing she can't cook to a really high standard and she makes an absolutely top notch roast dinner.

Some of her fun is to experiment with food and try new things so this thread is to share a few idea's and be creative, so here go's to kick things off.

Palini's Spicy Pork And Coconut Burgers
Ingredients

Minced Pork
Desiccated Coconut
Thai Red Curry Paste
Dried Chilli Flakes
Whisky
Salt And Pepper

This is amazing and so simple to make just add desiccated coconut to minced pork add Thai red curry dried chilli flakes a splash of whisky salt and pepper, mix well through out then form into burgers and leave for half an hour.

These are fantastic on the BBQ and always talked about amongst friends and family the spice level is up to you we have them normal, but when I have the lads come around I ask her to crank the spicy up Issan style. I also love to eat these chilled from the fridge when I come home from the pub seriously good beer food for a piss head.

Kendo.

Ultimate Thai fusion. Som Tam sandwich. Easy to make, just a couple of slices of bread and Som Tam from your favourite vendor.

Thais like ice cream sandwiches I suppose not that much different from an Arctic Roll.
