Title: [THAI] khao tam kung (shrimp and rice soup)
Categories: Shrimp, Soup, Thai
Yield: 4 servings

2 c Nam sup (stock)
1 c Shrimp (about 10
-to the pound size)
1 c Cooked rice
1/2 c Kheun chai (chinese
-celery-celeriac), chopped
2 tb Nam pla (fish sauce)
1 tb Kratiem (garlic), crushed
1 ts Si-iew khao
-(light soy sauce)
1/2 ts Prikthai (black pepper),
-freshly ground
Bai chi (coriander/
-cilantro leaves),
-to garnish

(shrimp and rice soup) This is the answer to the question “if Thais eat so
much hot and spicy food, what do they eat for breakfast?” (but they also
eat som tam and curries…)

khao tam is a fairly bland and innocuous soup, that is always considered a
meal in itself (never served with other foods). Whilst it can be made with
almost any meat, it is most commonly made with seafood combinations, or
just plain khao tam.

Method Saute the garlic and reserve as a garnish.

In a saucepan, boil the stock, and add the celery, soy sauce, pepper and
rice, and bring back to a boil.

Add the shrimp and cook until it turns pink.

Serve immediately, garnished with the sauteed garlic and coriander leaves.

1 c Nonfat Dry Milk plus
2 tb Nonfat Dry Milk
4 ts Salt

coarse cornmeal. Sotre mix in a jar or can with a
tight lid. It can be measured into 2 cup amounts and
put in plastic bags or jarsd where it will be ready
for use. It may be stored at room temperature for 6
weeks. Vary the liquids: dry milk solids are already
in the mix so more milk is not need. You can use fruit
juice, water or meat broth for the liquid called for
in a recipe.

The recipes in this Pick-A-pocket book were writted
for commercial packaged baking mix which has no milk
so it is the liquid called for in recipes. This mix is
a perfect substitte. Just use water where it calls for
milk. (written out of my cookbook)

to mix and stir 20-25 times. Turn out onto a lightly
floured surface and knead 10-15 times. Roll to 1/2″

use biscuit cutter to make circles. Place in preheated
sm and bake 5 minutes or until golden brown.

Sausage biscuits: 2 1/4 cups packaged biscuit baking
mix (milk), 8 links sausages cooked.

Prepare biscuits according to package directions for
rolled biscuits. Knead dough, roll out on floured
surface and cut 8 circles with a biscuit cutter. Lay
one sausage in center of each and wrap dough around,
pinching to seal. Sausages will stick out the ends.
Bake 5 minutes or until golden brown.

Jelly biscuits: flatten unbaked biscuits with heel of
your hand. Place 1/2 teaspoon jelly or preserves in
center. Fold over and pinch edges together to seal.

1 cup TVP®
1 cup black bean flakes
1/4 cup tomato paste (I remembered it this time!!)
1/4 cup coriander chutney
1 1/2 cups boiling water > or < Mix all together and add boiling water. Form into balls and bake at 400 degrees for 20 min or form into patties and cook in nonstick skillet. Alas this is also probably a bit high in sodium, because of the bean flakes and the chutney. The latter is available in Asian grocery stores--I highly recommend it if you like coriander (cilantro). Unlike many other chutneys or pickles I see around it does not contain oil. The mint version is also good. If anybody has recipes for Indian pickles or chutneys, please post. I love hot food but not swimming in oil. Some day when I get time I might like to make my own Indian pickles.. TVP is a registered trademark of Archer-Daniels-Midland Company.

1/4 c Oat bran 1/3 c Honey
1/4 c Finely chopped almonds 1/2 ts Vanilla extract

Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl. Combine remaining
ingredients and add to dry mixture. Mix until all ingredients are
moistened.

Press mixture into a rectangular shape 7 inches wide and nine inches
long. (Wet hands or use one hand and a damp spoon.)

Bake about 12 minutes. Remove from oven and cut into 16 bars using a
sharp knife. Separate bars slightly and return to oven for 3 to 5
minutes more. The browner the bottom of the bars, the crisper they
will be when cool.

The edges will crumble slightly when cut – set aside for a snack.
Remove to a wire rack to cool.

Place the potato, sweet potato, turnips, zucchini, eggplant and

enameled cast-iron casserole. Add the onions and cumin seeds and cook
over moderately low heat, stirring until the onions soften, 7 to 8
minutes. Stir in the chickpea flour and fenugreek and cook, stirring
until the chickpea flour becomes a paste and browns slightly, 2 to 3
minutes more. Pour in 2 cups of warm water and bring to a boil, over
moderately high heat. Cook, stirring, until the gravy begins to
thicken, about 1 minute. Add 2 more cups of water and bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat to low and cook until the gravy reduces and thickens
slightly, about 10 minutes. Stir in the chiles, ginger, ground
coriander, tumeric, brown sugar, and salt and cook for 5 minutes
longer, stirring gently. Drain the vegetables and add them to the
gravy. Stir in the tomatoes and bay leaves, cover and cook until the
vegetables are tender but not mushy, about 20 to 30 minutes.
(If making this dish ahead, under cook the vegetables slightly.
Refrigerate the dish for up to 2 days. When re-heating the mixture, add
1/2 cup of water and bring to a simmer over moderate heat before
proceeding.) Stir in the tamarind mixture and the fresh coriander and
cook, uncovered for 5 minutes. Discard the bay leaves and serve.
NOTE: Serve with cooling fresh pineapple for those that do not like
the heat.
