We had this for lunch.
Made 300 g rice quantity, but full quantity everything else.
 Only had 250g creamed coconut.

Used 280g cooked chicken. Marinated and put in top bit of varoma for 10 minutes.

Used onion, leek, carrot, sweetheart cabbage, 4 mushrooms and a T of frozen shallots.

Very good.

Leftovers will be reheated for supper tomorrow.

Yes kimmyh, you should give this one a go! I'm not a fan of coriander, so I used parsley instead, and as I said, only a little bit of chilli paste (the stuff in a tube from the produce section of Woolies), and i just used whatever vegies I had in the fridge (not exactly the same as the ones in Jo's recipe)

I think I was particularly impressed with this recipe because it is so different to what I usually make. I do cook a fair few stir fry meals, but I generally cook a ginger/garlic/soy/honey kind of sauce...and this one was just so different!

My husband was very impressed with it and my 4 and a 1/2 year old loved it too (my 2 year old is a fuss-pot, and even he ate most of it!)

Give it a go next time you're up for trying a new recipe and tell us what you think!!!

Reheated in MW tonight after a long day. Added tin of corn to stretch it.
Delicious again.

I'm not fond of coriander either, but it doesn't bother me in this recipe - I started off all parsley, then went to 50 / 50 coriander and parsley but then went to straight coriander.  Give it a try, you may be as surprised as I was.

So glad you liked it kimmyh! i was thinking about you cooking it tonight, hoping that your tastebuds would like the same thing as mine (and everyone else who loves this dish!)  :)

It's a beauty isn't it! Next time I'm cooking for friends I think I'll try this one! Didn't you just love the sauce?

Loved the sauce but i only put a smidge of chilli so kids could eat it. Yes it is definitely a dish to show off to friends.

This recipe has pretty much ruined us for take-aways... Surprisingly we don't care either. You gotta try it if haven't yet!

Had this for dinner and I have only had my thermomix for one day. It was so lovely. I cooked the recipe as written even though they are only 2 of us but will have lunches for a few days. If I can do it, anyone can. Thank you for a fantastic recipe and its one we will have often.
