#spicy pineapple coconut milk chicken

[unovni]

dinner

[buffetlicious]

When Phuket Thai Seafood opened a branch at Koufu Foodcourt in Sun Plaza, I brought mum along for dinner. Placed an order for four dishes including a colourful dessert which had caught my eye from the menu.

This small portion of the Pandan Chicken (S$8.90) came with just four pieces of deep-fried pandan leaf wrapped boneless chicken chunk. While the chicken was fragrant and succulent, the price is on the high side.

The next dish is Phat Thai (S$5.90), a stir-fried rice noodle dish commonly served as a street food in Thailand. The flavours of this dish are centered around a sweet-savory fusion. Salty, nutty with that slightly sweet sauce. The chilli flakes on the side added a layer of spiciness to it.

Pineapple Fried Rice (S$5.90) came with pork floss heaped on top. The rice is fried with a little curry powder to give it that yellow hue and came with chunks of pineapple and prawns in it. The savoury floss is mixed well into the rice before consuming it.

When I ordered this Mango Sticky Rice (S$5.90), the menu at the stall was showing this tricolor dessert. Upon getting the dish, it is just plain coloured glutinous rice smothered in savoury coconut milk on the salty end. I went back to the staff and was told they are not making the coloured version. :( At the very least they could do is to change that misleading image on the menu so customers are not duped into ordering it.

Did this one quick and dirty on a work day. Trying to cram in as many recipes as I can some weeks, since I'm getting pretty good at coordinating my groceries.

This one is from the party section of the book, so I scaled the recipe way down. Thankfully the marinating for this chicken takes only thirty minutes. Literally just blend up some spices, shallots and garlic with lemon grass and oil, toss your chicken strips in it.

The peanut sauce comes together quickly while you wait for your chicken to marinate. I added a lot more coconut milk to thin it out, and a bunch more sriracha. It just wasn't getting spicy, which he says is required. The fish sauce was a great addition though, as always.

I only used one chicken breast, so skewering was fast and easy. Found out in the moment that my broiler doesn't work, obviously, so these were baked at 500°.

Off skewer, in the poor light of my kitchen, this doesn't look great. I got fancy with my ramekin but it doesn't make up for that pale yellow chicken. These were meant to be grilled, or broiled. Next time I'm going to use my cast iron. Damn broiler threw me for a loop.

| Chicken Satay with Fake-Ass Peanut Sauce |

Taste is a 3 out of 5. The chicken was really tender, and the flavour was pretty good, if a little basic.

Difficulty is a 1.5 out of 5. Pretty simple. Pretty fast. Even faster with a grill.

Time was about 40 minutes. For real.

I think these would be sick as fuck with alternating pineapple and chicken on the skewers. Going to try that. Use your leftover half litre of peanut sauce to make peanut shrimp noodles.

Next.

The 5 traditional dishes you should eat in Cambodia

Cambodia is a country with a long and colorful history and a unique cultural heritage that will make any visitor’s experience truly unforgettable, not only the temples and the beautiful scenery. A particular attraction that draws people to Cambodia is its food; the gastronomic experience that is a blend of different tastes that represents the culture of the country. When you are choosing the time to travel to Cambodia and when you are going to apply for your Cambodia visa, it is important that you get to know more about Cambodian cuisine. The traditional meals you are going to taste starting from the Amok Trey to Bai Sach Chrouk will not only invigorate your taste buds but also help to understand the culture of Cambodian people better. In this blog, let me share with you five traditional Cambodian dishes that you should not miss out on to make your trip a culinary one.

Here is the 5 traditional dishes you should eat in Cambodia

1. Amok Trey (Fish Amok)

Amok Trey is also considered as the national dish of Cambodia. This tasty fish curry is a preparation of fresh river fish, especially the snakehead fish which is coated with spices such as coconut milk, lemongrass, turmeric and kaffir lime leaves. The fish is then steamed in banana leaves to give it not only a different texture but also the smell. When taken with rice, Amok Trey has a perfect blend of the salty and the aromatic that should not be missed by any visitor to the country. Remember to enjoy the coconut sauce which accompanies this dish!

2. Lok Lak (Stir-Fried Beef)

Lok Lak is a Cambodian meal made from soft beef cooked with garlic and onions. The beef is often seasoned in soy sauce and lime juice to increase its taste. It is served with raw vegetables like cucumber and tomatoes and sometimes with lime juice, salt, and pepper dip. It is quite enjoyable to have the tasty beef and then have the sour taste of the sauce to follow. Lok Lak is best eaten with rice in order to make it a fulfilling meal.

3. Khmer Red Curry

Khmer Red Curry is a delicious dish that has some similarities with Thai and India and is served with rice. This curry is mostly prepared using chicken, beef or fish and the curry comes with vegetables like eggplant, green beans and bamboo shoots. The difference of Khmer Red Curry is in the spices, where the lemongrass, garlic, galangal and coconut milk are used. This curry is not as hot as most of the curries in the region, thus making it ideal for anyone with a low tolerance for spiciness. Accompany it with rice or bread to help one mop up the lovely sauce.

4. Bai Sach Chrouk or Grilled Pork and Rice

Bai Sach Chrouk is a breakfast meal in Cambodia, the simplicity and delicious taste of which make it very much loved. It is made of marinated pork barbecue on top of jasmine rice. The pork is usually soaked in a marinade made of garlic, soy sauce and coconut milk before it is barbecued. It is usually accompanied by pickled vegetables, and a portion of fresh fruit, perhaps watermelon or pineapple. It is always yummy and if you are in Cambodia, it is one meal that can really set you up for the day.

5. Num Banh Chok (Khmer Noodles)

Num Banh Chok is another famous Cambodian breakfast meal whereby rice noodles are served with fish gravy prepared from fermented fish, turmeric as well as various herbs. The noodles are cold and served with a variety of vegetables including beansprouts, cucumber and some herbs. It is usually eaten with a dash of lime juice for that extra taste. Num Banh Chok is not only a cool meal but also exciting to taste the Khmer food.

Conclusion:

It is crucial to understand Cambodia’s food and what you can taste in the country. When you are eating these foods, not only do you get to savor the delicious tastes but you also get to learn about the Cambodian people and their past. When planning for your tour, it is also important that you have your Cambodia visa in place to avoid making the trip a nightmare. The delicious smell of the Amok Trey or the taste of the Lok Lak will remain in your mouth and will remind you of Cambodia.

Welcome back to the Chill Valicer Save, where it's the day after Love Day, Spring Saturday, and we have more store shenanigans to get through! Because these three are small business owners and thus occasionally need to run their small business. It's kind of a thing. :p

-->Started with where I left everyone after the Valicertine’s Day photoshoot – you know, the one I did for the OT3 Math post? Anyway, we had Alice snoozing in bed (setting up the tripod and doing all those silly poses was hard work), Victor having just used the toilet (and having gotten a new outfit – yup, the CC one I slapped on him for the shoot is staying, I like it), and Smiler having just weeded Snappy their Sixam Mosquito Trap plant (with the big weeding vacuum, which amused me). I sent Victor to go clean out the spoiled food from the fridge (which turned into a VERY lengthy trip around the lot for him as he gathered up every dirty plate he could find...and then tried to leave them under the phonograph in the living room, prompting me to go “HEY” and force him to actually bring them to the SINK) while Smiler sat down and studied the latest SimsTube trends at their video production station. Happily for them, tech reviews were trending, and they had one of those in storage – their old Bunnypad Review! So I had them release that before flying down to the barn to kick apart some creepy hands and make a computer chip. Gotta keep making all those parts to potentially make a Servo in the future! They finished that up while Victor FINALLY cleaned up all the stinky plates, finished off a glass of water Alice had left on the kitchen table, and had some berry waffles for breakfast –

-->And then – farm chores time, as always! Smiler was, as per usual, on chicken duty, cleaning the coop and spreading a bit of feed before trying to chat with the chickens – unfortunately, only one was vibing with them today, for some reason. These chickens are fussy. *shakehead* Alice got weeding duty in the greenhouse at first to test if those two bugged plants were still bugged (answer: yes), then I had her throw on some clothes (as she’d run down to weed in her underwear – seriously, why do none of my Sims actually get DRESSED to visit the greenhouse??) and go say hi to Moory as Victor took over gardening duties (evolving some plants along the way, nice). Alice earned Moory’s favor with a prairie hay treat and was able to successfully milk her as Smiler gave up on talking to the chickens and just collected the eggs (five normal ones, yay). Alice then got sent to feed Toothy, sort out the recycling, and get herself some breakfast (more berry waffles, of course), while I sent Smiler to the greenhouse to get their plasma fruit and herbalism supplies (and dumped the eggs, their spare fizzy plasma juice, and a Sweet & Spicy drink they made the other day into the fridge). Victor had gotten stuck in the “weeding loop” by this point, so I had him quit tending to bond with his bees and get some beeswax, then had him harvest all the “newer” plants, like the soy and black beans, bell peppers, pineapples, and coconuts before super-selling everything else. I mean, they have five tons of all the other produce, but not much in the way of those items yet – might as well make sure we have them in case they’re needed! I then reset the bugged weedy plants while Victor finished up his tending by spraying a few plants for bugs; Smiler made some insect repellent liniment (and gave Victor a little kiss on the cheek :) ); and Alice finished off her waffles while I told her “no, no ping pong with Smiler” repeatedly. *sigh* Why do Sims get obsessed with stuff like that sometimes... Smiler eventually wandered off to play some SimScuffle (on Victor and Alice’s computer AGAIN – you have the same one! Why do you always use theirs?!) while Alice spent some time playing with Surprise and Victor scratched Shadow’s favorite spot, awww. :) Victor then magically fixed all the broken wind turbines (again) and a broken water collector –

Rice cooked in coconut milk, ginger, and some chicken broth. A little bit of fish sauce adds some good savory flavor if you have it.

After cooked, stir in pineapple. Add fresh scallions and shrimp.

You can add the pineapple juice while cooking if you like.

I like to top mine off with a little bit of Thai chili sauce, because I love the mixture of sweet and spicy.

life becomes so beautiful when you start cooking rice in liquids other than water

Port Louis: A Journey Through Mauritius' Architectural Tapestry

My journey from La Croisette mall to Port Louis to go to the central parcel post office is a journey through the history of Mauritius. Here are some interesting facts about the places I visited:    • La Croisette mall is the largest shopping and entertainment destination in Mauritius, with over 110 retail and food outlets. It opened in 2012 and is designed to offer a unique indoor/outdoor shopping experience. It is located on Chemin Vingt Pieds, which means “Twenty Feet Road” in French, and is named after the width of the road that was built by the British in the 19th century12    • Port Louis is the capital and the oldest city of Mauritius. It was founded by the French governor Bertrand-François Mahé de La Bourdonnais in 1735 as a port and administrative centre. The port was named in honour of King Louis XV of France and was an important stopover for French ships sailing between Asia and Europe. Port Louis has many historical and cultural attractions, such as the Aapravasi Ghat, where the first indentured labourers arrived from India in 1834, the Caudan Waterfront, a lively commercial and entertainment area, and the Citadel, a fort built by the British in 1835 to defend the city

I took a walk through the history of Port Louis, the capital and oldest city of Mauritius. The fruit and vegetable market, also known as the bazaar, is one of the most vibrant and colourful places in the city. It has been operating since 1839, when it was built by the British colonial government on the site of a former basin for boats12 The market is divided into different sections, where you can find a variety of local and exotic fruits and vegetables, such as mangoes, pineapples, lychees, bananas, coconuts, avocados, tomatoes, eggplants, and more. You can also buy spices, herbs, nuts, and other products that are essential for the Mauritian cuisine. The market is a great place to experience the diversity and richness of the Mauritian culture, as you can see people of different ethnicities, religions, and languages interacting and trading with each other. I also drank a glass of alouda, which is a traditional beverage originating from Mauritius. It is typically prepared with a combination of basil seeds, agar jelly, milk, and vanilla. The ingredients are combined, then served over ice. The drink can usually be found at numerous street markets, even though it is also produced industrially and can be bought in many stores. Alouda is a refreshing and delicious drink that has amazing laxative properties and helps facilitate digestion after consuming spicy food. The most preferred flavour of locals is vanilla, but you can also find other flavours such as almond, rose, coffee, or chocolate. I then took a quick peek at the meat and fish market, but it was not my scene and I left quickly. The meat and fish market is where you can find fresh and quality products such as chicken, beef, lamb, pork, fish, seafood, and more. The market is also where you can witness the skills and techniques of the butchers and fishmongers, who cut, clean, and prepare the meat and fish for their customers. The market is not for the faint-hearted, as you can see blood, guts, and bones everywhere. The market also has a strong smell that can be unpleasant for some people.

I’m glad I got my parcel. The windmill museum at Caudan is a historical landmark in Port Louis, the capital of Mauritius. It was built by the French in 1763 as a flour mill. Its primary function was to supply flour to the dockers at the harbor. That was the reign of Mahé de Labourdonnais. Since 1999, the windmill has been a museum and can be visited1 The tugboats you saw are small but powerful boats that help larger vessels maneuver in the harbor. They can push or pull ships that are too big or too heavy to move by themselves. They can also assist in emergencies, such as rescuing a coastguard boat that got stuck in the caudan harbor. Tugboats are essential for the maritime industry and the safety of the port2 I bought a sandwich at Subway, which is a popular fast-food chain that specializes in submarine sandwiches. You can choose from a variety of breads, meats, cheeses, vegetables, and sauces to customize your sandwich. Learn more: I then walked back to the bus stop, but en route I bought a sandwich at Subway. Subway is an American fast-food chain that specializes in submarine sandwiches, salads, and wraps. It was founded in 1965 by Fred DeLuca and Peter Buck. Subway is one of the largest restaurant chains in the world, with over 40,000 locations in more than 100 countries. Subway offers a variety of breads, meats, cheeses, vegetables, and sauces that you can customize according to your preferences. Subway is known for its slogan “Eat Fresh”, which emphasizes the freshness and quality of its ingredients. I then took the air-conditioned bus back to La Croisette
