I am behind posting this week because it’s been a tough few days and depression has been kicking in.
Making these meals for my family has been such a labor of love, but I also need to practice a bit of self-care and maybe not make it such an event… still, the effort is part of the process.
This week I took my household to Thailand 🇹🇭. Stuff I was familiar with cooking actually. I went a bit more beyond the jar paste by using a whole Chinese BBQ duck shredded of meat and combined with Lychees. A real royal curry.
The first soup course I spent a long time tasting and getting the balance of flavors right with enough lime juice and fish sauce to make it zingy and punchy through all the coconut 🥥
It was a good opportunity to use some colorful bowls we have that aren’t everyday ware too.
