So, it's been quite awhile since I've posted any new recipes. Even though life has been very busy lately, I have still been squeezing in our New Food Mondays almost every week. Tonight I actually had my camera handy and a couple of minutes of spare time after dinner so I decided it was time to get back in the groove.
#2 has been tossing around the idea of becoming a vegetarian lately so I decided to dust off my copy of Vegetarian Planet by Didi Emmons and try something without meat (gasp!!). I prepared the Thai Tofu with Red Curry Sauce over Coconut-Scallion Rice. It was spicy and delicious! I even ate the broccoli! #1 and #4 ate the rice minus the scallions and a couple of pieces of plain fried tofu since neither is a big fan of spicy food. #3 gobbled up some plain tofu with rice and tried some of the broccoli in the sauce but quickly requested a glass of milk. #2 almost cleaned his plate but I think the heat started to get to him too (even though he would never admit it.) Hubby gobbled his serving up (after picking out all the broccoli.)
Here's the recipe:
This version uses only one tbsp of chili sauce where the original calls for three...hmm..maybe I should have used this one. The author of this recipe halved the amount of broccoli but doubled the amount of oil. I did not buy fish sauce or kaffir lime leaves since I was fairly certain I wouldn't use them again. I am not a huge cilantro fan so I only used maybe 1/3 cup.
