Nasi Goreng (Indonesian Fried Rice)

My first introduction to Nasi Goreng was at Odette’s home. This Indonesion fried rice is an everyday dish often made with ham. What makes it so delicious is Kecap or ketjap which is the sweet soy sauce used in her recipe. Later I found this recipe in a Johnson and Wales newsletter. The recipe called for soy sauce but I substituted the sweet soy sauce. After you try this recipe, you will not want to go back to using soy sauce. Enjoy!

    Thai Green Curry Chicken

    Green Curry Chicken is one of my favorites but the green curry paste I used came from an Asian shop and the container was so big I could not use it all before it expired. Of course being an American, I could not tolerate the hotness of the green curry, so I used about half. Then I discover Savory Spices and learned they had a dry green curry that can be made into a paste. This great recipe came from the test kitchen and I modified it to suit my tastes. The recipe goes back into my cooking rotation for my family to enjoy. I hope you do too!
