It is said that Indonesian food is “aromatically extravagant” because local cooks often fry their spices and other seasonings before putting them on the meats. This extra step releases essential oils and flavors, which are readily apparent in this chicken recipe. From Weber’s Art of the Grill, one of my favorite cookbooks! PREP TIME DOESN’T INCLUDE 1 1/2 HOURS MARINATING AND COOLING TIME.
Make and share this Tamarind Beef Curry (Samlaa Ko Phet) recipe from Food.com.
A gentle curry with strong lemongrass flavor. Goes great over white or brown rice. Don’t be frightened off by the cook time, it mostly takes care of itself and needs little attention once you combine the ingredients. Got the recipe from Savory Spice Shop in Santa Rosa, CA
I got this recipe from a grandmother in Phnom Penh. It’s normally eaten for breakfast in Cambodia, but westerners would probably consider it lunch or dinner food. If you can’t find the powdered rice root, don’t worry, it’s not that importaint. For the toasted rice powder, toast the rice in a dry pan until brown and grind to a powder.
The other night, Paul, one of my sharemates made this delicious chicken dish. It was so tasty, and everyone loved it so much!!! Param n’ Kaval made Indian bread called Chapati, we had this with this chicken curry. I asked Paul how to make it n it seems so simple n’ easy!!! I want everyone to try this wonderful Indian dish!!!
