Like Thai Food, Miss Spuds

[jayenram]

Peel, boil and mash a couple of spuds and a small cauliflower. Mix in half a dozen chilies, a medium onion and half a handful of fresh corriander, all finely chopped. Add salt. Make into patties the size of a Mcdonalds but twice as thick, i.e. about an inch. Fry both sides in minimal oil until dark brown.

If the wife is joining you, triple all the ingredients except the chilies, Quadruple them!

All this is is a basic bub and Sq rec using cauli instead of cabbage.

I would suspect that this would taste shit without a splash of milk, a good knob (errrrrrrrrrm matron) of butter, and maybe a pinch of salt and a good blast of pepper.

Spuds without butter, especially when mashed, are rank.

Is the OP a Brit???? Surely not!!??

An alternative to milk, throw a raw egg in and beat vigorously, with the pepper and salt of course.

It's an old bushies trick and I will be an old bushie one day.

[NarrLing]

We all like a banger to go with mash. Why not try to make your own bangers? English breakfast sausages, Cumberland, summer sausage. Try this site.

OK then, try this:

Hard boil 1/2 dozen eggs. Cut each in half and remove the yolk. Mash the yolk with a couple of boiled spuds, a finely chopped small onion, some corriander (or parsley, if you're a scouser) and a few chopped chilies and seasoning. Put the mash into the orafices left by the egg yolk and chill for 1/2 hour (pile it up a bit because, of course it will not fit). Dip in batter and deep fry until golden brown. Dellishit!

If you need a name for it, try "Deep fried battered hard boiled eggs with mashed potato, onion, corriiander and chilies".

It might kill a soi dog, but I am inclined to give it a go. Thanks Jaye

Got nothing to do? Try this:

Bake a few potatoes in the oven (not the bloody microwave, you morons). Cut them in half and scoop out the white bit. Mash the cut out bit with cheese (grated), chopped onion, garlic and chilies (finely chopped), a spoonful of tomato puree, a bit of butter and some milk, salt, pepper and fresh chopped corriander leaves (or parsley if you are from Lancashire). Put anything else in if you wish (Mercans may like tabasco). Put the mixture back in the half spuds and grill until golden brown on the top. If you are not Lancastrian, you may like to sprinkly the halves with dried parsley prior to grilling.

More spuds!

Boil a kilo of spuds and let them cool. Break them up into little bits (10 mm). Throw a teaspoon of black mustard seeds and 1/2 teaspoon of cumin into a few tablespoons of hot oil in a wok. Chuck in finely grated fresh ginger (1" cube) and a few chopped chillies. Fry for a bit (couple of minutes). Add 2 teaspoons ground coriander seeds, 1/2 tsp turmeric, 1 tsp of ground chilli powder and the spuds. Mix around a bit for a minute. Add 1/2 cup of water and mix around a bit more. Add salt (1.5 tsp), garam masala (1 tsp) and a couple of teaspoons of lemon juice. Mix it all up for a while. If there's any left overs, make an omelette.

[jayenram]

With eggs.

Brown 1/2 kilo of cubed potatoes (1.5") in a bit of hot oil. Put aside. Add 1/4 tsp each of chilli powder and turmeric to the hot oil. Mix it up and roll half a dozen whole hard boiled eggs around in it until they are browned. Put aside. In the same oil, fry a chopped large onion, 1/2" cube of grated ginger and 2 or 3 chopped chillies with a 2" long cinnamon stick, a couple of cardamom pods and 4 cloves (about 6 or 7 minutes). Add a small tin of chopped tomatoes, 1/2 tsp turmeric, 2 tsp ground coriander seed, 1 tsp ground fennel seeds and 1 tsp chilli powder. Fry for about 12 minutes, stirring all the time. Chuck in the spuds, 1 tsp salt and 1/2 pint of warm water. Cover the pan and simmer until the spuds are cooked through. Then chuck in the hard boiled eggs and simmer, uncovered, for another 5 minutes. Put in a tablespoon of chopped coriander leaves before serving.

all of this would be tremendously exciting if it were not for the fact that spuds are hard to come by in the best of times and when you do find them they are greenish and very expensive...

how come none of the recipies have fish sauce? I would then say a non-thai related thread...

C'mon tutsi.... plenty of talk about chilli

I for one am enjoying reading some of these recipes, and can't wait to try them out with my teeruk.

She loves to cook (falung style & Thai).

Even up here in the sticks we can get 1/2 decent potatoes. The local main market has had them for at least 5 years. Plus, Tesco and Big C have them regularly. Bht 55.00/kg is about the price.

P.S. Include in all previously posted spud recipes: 3 tbsp fish sauce.
