New recipe alert! Yesterday at the laundromat I was exceedingly bored, and found myself reading Family Circle. Yes, you might laugh, but in the May of 2008 issue I found a new bad-ass recipe for Thai Coconut Chicken.

Don't worry, it's not very spicy at all, just a nice blend of coconut, veggies and green curry paste.

Although I wasn't sure how many teaspoons of dried basil would equal twelve leaves, so I used something like six or seven.

It seemed to work.

in Thai recipes basil is usually supposed to read Thai Basil and should not be substituted for italian basil, as they are very different. I think Thai Basil is in the mint family, but you can check me on that with a wiki-search.

You know, I wondered about that. Should have called you. Apparently there is a Thai Basil that differs from Italian Basil.

Huh.

Looks like I need to make a trip to Sun Oriental Market in Portland ...
