Green-ish Curry and a Coconut

in #food7 years ago

Dreaming of the tropical while eating thai green curry I made for myself this morning. I couldn't sleep last night because I was so excited about all the future plans I have. I was already at the grocery store by 7am when the doors opened and I had my breakfast/lunch/dinner ready by 8.30. I couldn't make the curry paste from scratch because I couldn't find all the ingredients for it, so I used a ready made paste and tweaked that quite a bit. Turned out pretty good, but I'm sure it's nothing compared to an authentic one. And with that in mind, if all goes well, I'll be getting the taste of the real deal in just a few months.

Along with having coconut cream in my curry, I bought a coconut plant! Look at this cutie! Never seen one in a flower shop before, and when I did some research I found out that these are extremely hard to keep alive for more than a year. Try and simulate warm, sunny and humid conditions into a dark, drafty and cold apartment, wish me luck.

Looks good, yummy

No more food posts! You're making me hungry! This is the only one you've done isn't it? I suppose I will let it go. :)

It looks familiar, I love curry! And your coco... ;) I have avokado at home, it also looks great!

I have an avocado too, it's a cute little thing!

I wanna have also lemon and... I will find something more especial ;)

Yummy, exactly what I needed to see now, it's dinner time around here :) I can totally relate to your late-night/early-morning experience though. A few weeks ago I was in Seoul and horribly jetlagged. I got so hungry at 3am that I decided to go out to search for some delicious Korean food, since I couldn't get any sleep anyway, haha :) Later I blogged about the awesome food I found there, in case you are interested: https://steemit.com/food/@raci/five-korean-dishes-i-fell-in-love-with-in-seoul

both are pretty important to me ;-)

Wow! I like the coconut plant. Never saw one either. Great curry. I love curries and make them often. I use the red and green. They are rich and comforting. Yours looks yummy! Have a wonderful day. Tess :)
