Mouthwatering morsels

I am psyched!!! I am off to take a 5 day Thai cooking course in Chiang Mai. 

I am looking forward to learning from a renowned Thai Chef.  Although I have been cooking Thai food for years I am sure there is still so much to learn.  I wonder how many holes exist in my own teaching and cooking techniques?  I will blog my discoveries and RECIPES!!!!

For the last week I have been focusing on Asian tapas menus.  This bite-sized world of fusion can be a wild and sensual world of mouthwatering morsels.  Now that I have had a real lesson in confusing fusion cuisine in Bali I am driven to find out ways to combine various cuisines together in perfect harmony.

SOME OF THESE RECIPES ARE PERFECT FOR THOSE ON THE ATKINS DIET.  IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE INGREDIENTS OR WHERE TO FIND THEM....LET ME KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE AND I WILL LET YOU KNOW.

Mix these ingredients and then chill for 20 minutes-

*1 cup cream cheese

*1/2 red onion, diced finely

*4 tbsp minced green chilis (jalapenos will work also)

*3 tbsp of grated ginger (fine as possible)

*2 tsp minced coriander leaves

*1 tsp of salt

When the mixture is cool enough form into small balls and roll in breadcrumbs or panko flour.

** Deep fry and serve with plum sauce or deep fried chilis (as they do in India)
