I was never into cooking till I got married and came to USA where you ought to cook your own to survive! :) But I am glad I developed this interest in trying out new dishes , thanks for all the cravings I had thinking about the delicious food that my aunty(mom's sister) cooked back home. So here I am, after 3 years of experimenting in the kitchen, writing my own blog to share with all of you to make your lives simple with easy , quick and delicious delights! Hope you enjoy the recipes!

Thai green curry with jasmine rice!!!
Thai food is the only cuisine I love after Indian.Finally I succeeded in making the exact same thai green curry they serve in the restaurant. I used the store baught thai green curry paste to make it.
You will need:
1 cup jasmine rice
1 can coconut milk
2 tbsp thai green curry paste(store baught come in a small bottle)
1 tsp brown sugar
1/2 cup sliced carrots
1/4 cup snow peas
1/2 cup brocolli florets
1 cup cubed extra firm tofu.
Method:
Cook the jasmine rice with 1 1/2 cup water in a rice cooker. Keep it aside.
In a pan, heat 1 tsp oil and slightly fry the cubed tofu till they turn golden brown. Keep it aside. Heat 3 cups water in a pan and add the sliced carrots , brocolli and snow peas and oil then for about 5 minutes. Drain the water and keep it aside.
In a pot , add 1 can coconut milk and bring it to boil. To this add the 2 tbsp of thai green curry paste and mix well. Add 1 tsp brown sugar and cook for about 2 to 3 minutes. Into this add the fried tofu and the boiled veggies and cook for another 6 to 8 minutes. Add more green curry paste depending on your spice level.
Serve it hot with Jasmine rice!
Thai green curry is ready to be relished!!!!
