Hi all,

As I put some information about myself in "Introduction" thread. I'm a kind of accidentally found this site and really interesting.

Could you please tell me what's the concept about being Goth?

I have to translate it. Really want to know...

PLEASE...

THANKS

Nina

Isn't it some sort of Thai food?

hey EPS!! lookie what I found!:

Thai Peanut Sauce

1 cup coconut milk
1 T red curry paste
1 T satay or chili paste
2 T creamy peanut butter
2 T sugar
1 T lime juice
1/2 t salt

In a saute pan, bring milk to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and whisk in curry and satay pastes. Stir in peanut butter, sugar, lime juice and salt;simmer for 10 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and let cool at room temperature.

Thai food is awesome ^.^ At the local Thai food restaruant I can only do a five... six at the top of my game (they make you choose 1-10 on a level of spiciness) but I want to do a 10 someday! Really good for sinus trouble

Tod Mun sauce is the Thai name for the recipe I believe..

Thanks for checking Courtenay, I have seen the recipes like that one before, but they just don't duplicate the same flavor that I have found in Authentic Thai Food restaurants..

I was hoping to get a super duper Authentic recipe for Tod Mun..

Because, like Jane said, Thai food is AMAZING!!!

And I make an excellent BBQ Pork Pad Thai, but am still desperate for the perfect Tod Mun sauce recipe..

Hehe, I'm Thai...so I eat that kinda food all the time..It gets boring at times

violet believes you can make a much simpler peanut sauce
perfect for voluptuous dipping of spring rolls

(although she strugges greatly to spell voluptuous)

by melting several tablespoonsful of creamy peanut butter in a saucepan
and as it melts over a very low fire
stir in some chopped scallions/green onions and one or two teaspoons
of tamari (but not without tasting, or it will be too salty)

and when it's melted and warm you can stir in your rice noodles

(violet asks that you please do not stir in top ramen)

(though as a graduate student she did in fact precisely this)

Tod Mun - Tod Mun
My favorite! Tod Mun is eaten as a snack or appetizer in Thailand. But as with most appetizers, Tod Mun can be eaten with rice as a main course.
3 Servings

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1/2 cup vegetable oil Tips and substitutions
If you can't find kaffir lime leaves, omit them. Dry ones won't do the trick.

If the mixture is not well mixed, Tod Mun will not be chewy when cooked. It will tend to break easily. Inconsistent results can also come from the wrong type of fish or how fresh the fish is.

1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 tablespoon salt
3 kaffir lime leaves
1/4 lb green beans
3/4 lb fish paste
1 egg
1 tablespoon curry paste -red

Stack all the kaffir lime leaves and roll them tightly. Slice the roll of leaves into very thin strips. Slice green beans into cross-sectional pieces, 1/8 inch (1/4 cm.) thick.

Mix all the ingredients, except for the kaffir lime leaves and green beans, in a bowl. Stir until the mixture becomes a paste with smooth and shiny consistency again. For some fish pastes, it takes 3 minutes to get the smooth texture. For other fish pastes, you may want to use a mixer on low power because you'll be churning it for 1/2 hour by hand. There's no way I've found to make sure that the fish paste is good before working with it. Then, add kaffir lime leaves and green beans and stir again to mix them in.

In a flat bottom pan, heat up the oil on medium heat. Test the temperature by dropping a smaller piece of fish paste mixture in. When the oil is ready, the mixture should puff around the edge. Once the oil is hot enough, drop a tablespoonful in the pan. When the down side has cooked, use a spatula to loosen the tod mun, then flip the uncooked side down and push it down with the spatula to make it flat like a pancake. Flip again to get both sides brown. Drain or pat with paper towels to remove the oil. Serve hot with the sauce below.

Take my advice

Fly over here dudes and eat as much as you can. Believe me,you won't get a real Thai taste unless here. And many thanks for that peanut sauce recipe... That's kind of thing I was thinking about when I saw that name.

Have you guys ever try mango with sticky rice and coconut milk... So delicius!!!

Tod Mun? my favourite one too

Well, I never get bored with my national food... no,never

Cat_Lover · 10-11-2005, 06:44 AM
