THAI!

I'm back! Technology has not beaten me and my little 'puter is finally up to date with the rest of you!

I've had a request from one of the Dolls on twitter for the Pro-points values on Thai food...


Now, Thai cooking includes plenty of fresh vegetables, fish and lean meat; lightly spiced with fragrant ingredients such as lemon grass, coriander and fresh chillies. At a Thai restaurant you'll find plenty to suit, as many of the dishes are chargrilled and steamed.

If you've got only a few ProPoints values to use: Start with a hot and sour soup such as tom yum goong with prawns or chargrilled seafood or a seafood salad. Follow with a jungle curry (kaneng par) that's spicy and meaty. or a lightly steamed fish such as sea bream or sea bass. You'll have plenty of side salad options such as som tum, or som tam, a green papaya salad with a lime dressing. Plain fragrant jasmine rice suits most dishes and is a healthier choice than coconut.

If you have a few more ProPoints values to spare: Start with steamed rice noodle spring rolls stuffed with vegetables or seafood. Then chargrilled strips of beef - nueasun yang or lok luk steak, with its garlicky sauce, which goes well with steamed pak choi.

Avoid: fried prawn crackers (krupuk), the fried noodles, which are listed as 'dry' and the crispy options as these will also have been fried. Fried is NOT our friend!

Also, check out my Welsh counterpart and quite the skinny foodie Miss Weight Watch! She whipped up these delish thai burgers, I've tried them and they are NOM! Check her out HERE!

Another recipe for the chefs amongst us - is Thai coconut soup! HERE!

I'll post all these values in the 'take away' list on the right too  >>>>>>
and remember to use some common sense!
