I have been poorly. And off my food. Which just never usually happens. Luckily this coincided with Si deciding to make soup. Twice. Cause and effect people!!
A lovely fresh minestrone and a coconutty and peanut chicken noodle soup. It made me feel better anyways.
Glad it’s cheered you up a bit! That chicken and coconut one looks lush – any chance of a recipe? 🙂
I’m afraid that Simon made it but I shall ask him what he did with it 🙂
OK – random chicken dish receipe:
2 chicken breasts
A pepper
Mushrooms
Fresh chilli
Zest & juice of 1 lime
Pak choi – shredded
1 sachet of creamed coconut
2(ish) tblsp peanut butter
Chicken stock
Handful of toasted cashews
Slice and fry the chicken. Add the veggies and lime zest except pak choi. Grate up the creamed coconut and add along with the peanut butter. When stirred in, add the stock and lime juice. Simmer until the chicken is cooked through, adding more stock if too thick. Stir in the pak choi and cashews a couple of minutes before plating up. Serve with noodles.
I would add lemongrass next time. I didn’t use fresh chillis but think they would taste better than tabasco. Ginger would be nice too but Charlie might blow up.
Oh thanks Si, that looks great. I haven’t cooked much with pak choi so will be good to get to grips with it. 😀
Looking forward to seeing you both soon! CAAAAAAKE.
