Hi everyone,

just a bit curious as to whether anyone on the website was into Sushi and might want some recipes.

Sushi is seeming to be growing in popularity at the moment and is especially popular with those on a diet as its real low calorie food.

If their is a demand for it we can post some recipes or info on how to make it.

In the mean time we have had some late drop outs resulting in a free SUSHI Masterclass being available on Thursday 29th April at The Cooking Academy.

For more information on this Sushi class or any other classes please visit:

Based on the previous discussion about jamie oliver and his school dinners i thought you may all be interested in our findings about our childrens eating habits, from seminars we have been giving in secondary schools.

The last month we (the cooking academy) visited several schools where we engaged with the children to understand their current cookery skills, knowledge of food and dietary habits.

This included:

Hi all,

When recently posting our thai fish cakes recipe https://curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=4530.0 we included how to make a red curry paste often used in thai and asian cooking.

Here is The Cooking Academy's recipe for the red curry paste:

Classic Red Curry Paste 

Ingredients

1 tsp ground coriander (if already ground then just dry roasted for 1 minute) 1 tsp ground cumin (if already ground then just dry roasted for 1 minute)
12 fresh red chillies or 1 tbsp of chopped minced chillies or chilli flakes
1 red onion or 4 shallots
2 cloves of garlic /2 tsps chopped garlic
1 tbsp of chopped galangal
2 stalks of lemongrass finely chopped
4 lime leaves
1 large handful of chopped fresh coriander (about 4 full stalks)
1 tsp shrimp paste
2 tsp paprika
1 tsp salt
4 tbsp Oil

Methodology

To make the curry paste

Roast the ground coriander and cumin in a pan over a low heat for 1 minute

Add all the other ingredients into the food processor including the coriander & cumin.  Whiz for about 90 seconds intermittently, until you have a smooth paste


Store in a clean glass jar in fridge for up to 6 weeks


The red curry paste is perfect for all your Thai Cooking and is ideal as it will last in the fridge for 6 weeks.

Hope you can find a use for it and perhaps encorporate it into one of your dishes.
