Cook's Tips

To save time, chop the onion in a food processor. Stop and scrape down the sides with a spatula or knife, then mix again for even chopping.

Lemon grass is a traditional flavouring in Thai cooking. Choose fresh, tender lemon grass. Old lemon grass will have dry stalks. Peel skin before use.
