christmas lunch

27Dec06

no fancy food, just lots of great salads and a bit of fish and meat. french wine and pacific beer.

carefree lazing on mats and some boating and swimming all afternoon.

my salad was a thai eggplant salad moosewood style:

roast a peeled and cubed eggplant and marinate overnight in fish sauce, sugar, soy, ginger, green chilli and a few other things i’ve forgotten. then add sliced tomato, red capsicum, green onions and bean sprouts in the morning.

i also made an excellent coconut chutney (with freshly scratched coconut!) and a coconut, mango and passionfruit cake. fulap wetem food, and lots of local produce.
