SIMPLE SUMMER DINNER

MY THAI OMELETTE

A fresh, spicy,good to eat meal, the omelettes serve as edible plates for the Thai glazed salad veggies...for two people:


































   
For the Thai dressing: 6 tablespoons vegetable oil.
1 lime zested & juiced.
4 tablespoons sweet chilli sauce.
4 tablespoons fish sauce.
1 clove garlic crushed.
mix together!

For the veggies: get that sharp knife going:

1 red pepper halved & finely sliced.
1 red onion peeled, halved & finely sliced.
1 piece ginger peeled, sliced finely then cut into matchsticks.
1/3 cucumber peeled, halved, deseeded then finely sliced.
2 little gem lettuce chopped.
Put all this into the salad bowl, add the dressing & toss!

For the omelettes, beat four eggs then add:


2 teaspoons fish sauce.
2 finely chopped chillies (you be careful!).
4 tablespoons finely chopped salted peanuts.
4 tablespoons finely chopped coriander.
3 tablespoons sweet chilli sauce.
Mix together & cook four thin omelettes (2 per person) whilst still warm, top with the Thai veggies & ENJOY!.....If you're vegetarian leave out the salty fish sauce & season to taste with good old fashioned salt, also if you're not vegetarian add cooked chicken or king prawns to the omelette...
This is great with Thai beer, for pud maybe ice cream or heres a simple cake from Patsy.......
