Thai Shrimp Recipe
This lovely thai shrimp recipe would be good as a meal in itself or as part of a 'banquet'. As a rule, thai food is not served in courses but everything together - rice, soups, noodle, main and side dishes all at once. It is quite common to have a dozen or more dishes at one meal. If you think of each dish being a vegetable, meat, fish, rice it would make a very colourful spread. It is important to have your ingredients assembled before you start to cook as the actual time in the wok is very short. Have your vegetables chopped and in piles waiting to go into the wok or frying pan. The noodles generally need soaking in boiling water before cooking. It is rare to have to cook them for any length of time, but the instructions will be on the packet. Try this thai recipe with some fried rice with chopped vegetables and maybe a thai green curry.
