"Playwrights are like men who have been dining for a month in an Indian restaurant. After eating curry night after night, they deny the existence of asparagus."
Peter Ustinov

Asian recipes have draw on thousands of years of experience to produce a rich variety of spicy and healthy recipes.

"The dishes of the present day are very light, and they have a particular delicacy and perfume. The secret has been discovered of enabling us to eat more and to eat better, as also to digest more rapidly....The new cookery is conductive to health, to good temper, and to long life....Who could enumerate all the dishes of the new cuisine? It is an absolutely new idiom. I have tasted viands prepared in so many ways and fashioned with such art that I could not imagine what they were."
Louis Sebastien Mercier

Thai Cucumber

 

Ingredients

1 medium cucumber, firm; peeled
1 tbsp vinegar, white
2 tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp white pepper
1/2 small onion
1 red chile pepper garnish
1/2 cup peanuts, dry roasted

~======== JULIENNE THE CUCUMB



 

Preparation

In a deep bowl stir the vinegar, sugar, salt and white pepper until
well blended.

Peel onion, slice into lengthwise paper thin slices. Same with seeded
red chile pepper.

Add the remaining ingredients, except the peanuts, and toss with the
marinade.

Serve at once or cover and chill NO LONGER than 2 hours.

Top with the peanuts (whole or chopped) just before serving. Makes 1
cup

* Personal Note - liked sliced cucumber much better.

~=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=------- Variations to try: thin slice onion and
cucumber instead of julienne and increase vinegar to 2 tbls.

If regular salted peanuts are used, omit salt in marinate.
