Indochina Food

One of the best things about the net is that i can always follow other people's food blogs, and then I go drooling in front of the monitor screen caused by the beautiful pictures posted therein, and then I can follow their recipes.

This blog from Ravenous Couple is one of the ones that i often follow. I am a big fan of Indochina food (fortunately there are so many indochina communities in France, so i wont have problems finding ingredients or restaurating if i need to), and their blog expand my view about Vietnamese dish in general. I followed their Bo Loc Lac and Ga Kho recipes. Two thumbs up for their easy to follow recipes.

Anyway, here are the pictures of sea food salad à la Thai. I used frozen agrume (citrus) cocktail ready package from Picard so that i wouldn't have problems cutting all of the citrus fruit to make the salad. I made the same salad long time ago, the basic vinaigrette (sauce) consists of the following ingredients:

• crushed palm sugar
• 2 tbs fish sauce
• ½ brown (palm sugar) crushed
• 2 tbs green lemon juice

Main ingredients:

• cooked (or grilled) seafoods such as calamari/shrimps/salmon
• citrus fruits in dices

Additional Ingredients:

• crushed peanuts/cashew nuts
• coriander leaves
• sliced chillies (optional)
• sliced red onion/shallots
