Ahh....too hot - on the street in Thailand they usually ask if you want 1, 2 or 3 chilis as they make your som tum;) |

Both recipes look very good. Your comment about the chili reminded me of when I took a cooking class in Thailand. We made perhaps 5-6 dishes and then ate them. Delicious. They gave us the recipes to bring home. A couple months later I had maybe a 3rd or 4th date with someone and suggested we try cooking a few of the recipes. Almost everything was so incredibly spicy, and the soup was so hot it was inedible...and I love spicy food. Bottom line, I ruined a dinner date, but am now married to her anyway :).
I actually only used 2 chilis and it was way too much. I like chilli but I don't like just a wall of heat that overpowers everything else. |

Asian grocers usually have them here. Otherwise do what corky suggests. It is a different flavour, but really you probably wouldn't know.
I think if cilantro roots are the only problem I have then I'm a truly lucky person! |

Dinner tonight (last dinner in ASQ - checking out tomorrow):
Chicken stuffed with Parmesan and herbs, Eggplant salad with roasted almond dressing fruit salad with passion fruit https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...5bc046f4_c.jpg |
I toasted a bagel (which was stale, from a couple days ago, but toasting made it ok) and put a scrambled egg, some cheese, and a bit of onion I had on it. And some sriracha.
And I juiced the grapefruit that had been sitting in my fridge for some fresh squeezed grapefruit juice. |
Late Monday luncheon:
baguette with curried chicken salad baguette with deli sliced roast beef & mustard deli chopped salad with buttermilk ranch dressing Tuesday breakfast: seeded sprouted rye toast with peanut butter Cuties mandarins coffee water |
Excellent lunch of leek and spinach soup with creme fraiche, followed by Stilton.
And tonight, it's leftover Christmas again - turkey with stuffing and cranberry (but finished all the bread sauce:td:) kalettes, bubble & squeak and sausages. Then leftover Christmas pudding! It still leaves an awful lot of turkey! |

It still leaves an awful lot of turkey! I would not eat turkey leftovers too long after christmas unless you plan on boiling them for a couple minutes. Leftovers don't (safely) keep forever. |
I made a terrifyingly large brown rice/pinto bean/chile/cheese casserole this weekend, and I've been eating that most meals for the past 4 days. I'm just about finished with it now, and then it's on to the next recipe (which I think will likely include lots of leafy greens, but I'm not sure what to make.)
