RE: Steemit Iron Chef 2017 #01 Tomato Tempe Balls Overtop Spiced Eggplant Patties w/ Cashew Garlic Herb Cheese (Vegan Recipe)
Hmm these look so good. Just the kind of recipe I like. Love it how the chives stick out of there. I can feel the love in this dish ♥
@progressivechef has been an angel to me ever since I got on here, I wanted to make something to make him proud for his contest ;) This was really yummy... the round eggplant is my new favorite thing, it's too bad my farmer ran out of it! Do you guys have any?
Yep. A lot of them. Does that convince you to move to Kampot or Kep too hehehe... you can have my speaker too ;)
Well actually, I am very intrigued ;) Food is generally the way to motivate me! I moved to Thailand because I love Thai food... or thought I did until the MSG in everything tried to kill me ;)
I really do want to come visit you while gallivanting up that way in January!
As you know you are more than welcome. We have the whole month off on January... almost all our Belgian friends are coming over for the new year and two of them are gonna get married too... they are my best friends so if you happen to be here you can come and crash the party haha... you would be a welcomed guest! In Cambodia, MSG is a problem too, however things are changing and so many places are having a NO MSG sign now. Sugar is the true villain here... hence the skyrocketing diabetes numbers.
Oooooh well let me look into it, that would be so fun! =D
Ugh the dreadful MSG... I ate a peanut the other day and it was seriously SO good and I looked at the ingredients and it said "Bali spices, peanuts, sea salt" so I'm thinking OK, YUM! But my dogs were cracked out over them so I looked again and there was an msg label small on the back... Could not believe it! (Well, yes I can... I just don't like it!) Sugar is super bad everywhere, too bad we couldn't just outlaw it! In Thailand, I was doing a cooking class and she kept trying to put sugar in my dishes and I refused... she was getting ANGRY because I wasn't making it the Thai way haha oh my goodness... the sugar is a drug!
Haha. Sounds like Cambodia. They never can believe it when I order a lime juice with no sugar or fresh iced tea with no sugar. They always look at me like I'm from a different planet.
Oh I know that all too well. Actually, the other day I ordered a smoothie and it said all of the ingredients, including the water or whatever, I forget what it was but it was super detailed. On the table was sugar so I thought, obviously you add your own sugar, no sugar on the menu... right?
Drank it super fast because I ended up needing to go somewhere anddd then it hit me like crack.
I went back and they were like "What do you mean? Of course it has sugar, it would be so gross without it!" -_- I cannot.
Sweet milk and sugar.... haven't met a smoothie made by a Cambodian yet that hasn't one or the other. Usually they even have both!
