Pretty simple dish of green curried chicken and shrimp with rice.
Got the egg settled in a 400 for about 30mins or so then threw the wok in on the spider. I have found if I let the fire settle in for a while before starting to cook I can control my heat a little better. Right as I start to cook I will close the bottom vent all the way. Fire still get really hot towards the end and for a novice Wokker like myself I think my cooks have turned out better by doin it this way.
Shrimp,curry paste and onions image I had the same thing goin for the chicken,just did in two batches. Then added the chicken back in with coconut milk and fish sauce and let it simmer till the shrimp and chicken were cooked. After removing from the wok I added the greens from the onions and some fresh Thai Basil from our herb garden image And on top of rice It was a really refreshing meal for about 30mins of work. image

    That looks delicious.  I have been toying with the idea of getting a wok.  Do you use it much?

    Thank for the compliment. I go in spurts. It may sit on the shelf for 2 months unused then I'll get on a kick and use it twice a week.

    Well, "spa-Peggy" is kind of like spaghetti. I'm not sure what Peggy does different, if anything. But it's the one dish she's kind of made her own.
