If there was a hit parade for food, surely Asian food would feature in the top10, it’s no wonder really.
Asian food generally is aromatic, flavor some and often full- bodied and, depending on the cuisine, it can be as chili-hot or cool as you like. It’s also a dream if you can’t eat dairy or wheat.
Asian food gets its base-note flavours from ingredients like lemon grass, garlic, ginger, shallot, cinnamon, turmeric, mustard seeds, tamarind, cardamom, pepper and chili, as well as fresh herbs like basil, fresh pandon leaves, fresh curry leaves and coriander. Coconut – in milk, cream or desiccated form – is another key ingredient, bringing a creamy richness to curries and soups. All these ingredients are available at Pearl Lanka.
Put off by often long lists of ingredients, some of us can be a bit shy about cooking Asian food from scratch at home, except for the near-ubiquitous stir fry. But if you make sure you have a well-stocked arsenal of the right ingredients (lemon grass, garlic, ginger, shallot, cinnamon, turmeric, mustard seeds, tamarind, cardamom, pepper, roasted or non roasted curry powder (mixture of most of the cooking ingredients) and chili, as well as fresh herbs like basil, fresh pandon leaves, fresh curry leaves and coriander. Coconut – in milk, cream or desiccated form, noodles, rice etc), it is often pretty simple to prepare and cook Asian dishes in your own kitchen.
If it helps at all to decide to do so, it’s good to know that it tastes even better the next day, so people are less inclined to moan about getting the same thing twice. It is also worth bearing in mind that things like garlic, ginger, shallot, cinnamon, turmeric, mustard seeds, tamarind, cardamom, pepper and chili, roasted curry powder can be kept at room temperatures, whilst the fresh herbs like lemon grass, basil, fresh pandon leaves, fresh curry leaves and coriander. Coconut – in milk, cream or desiccated form can be stashed in refrigerator, which means they are never-forgotten ingredients.
