Green Curry with Prawns (Gaeng Keow-Wan Gung) : Asian Food Fest (Thailand)
10:42 PTG
Kali ini Amie cuba resepi istimewa daripada Chef Vactharin Bhumichitr, yang mengatakan bahawa ....
Green curry is my mother's speciality, so this is a staple dish from my childhood. With more than 20 years experience in the food industry and being a head chef myself, I can confidently say that I have never tasted a green curry as good as my mother's.
Memang sedap! Memang sungguh lazat!
Terung ini ( green Thai aubergines) digunakan sebagai salah satu bahan masakan untuk Green Curry with Prawns.
Amie menemui pelbagai ejaan, rupa dan bentuk daun selasih dalam pelbagai buku masakan Thai. Ada yang menulis dengan ejaan 'bai horabha', 'bai horapa', dan seumpamanya. Bentuknya pun ada yang berbeza, misalnya ada bentuk selasih Eropah, rupa bentuk selasih 'kemangi' (nama selasih bagi penduduk Indonesia) yang juga dikenali sebagai 'manglak' di Thailand. Gambar di atas merupakan daun selasih yang Amie gunakan dalam masakan ini.
Jangan lupa dengan akar ketumbar seperti di bawah ini:
Dan juga daun limau purut atau kilut limau purut seperti di bawah ini.
