Coconut and chicken thai soup
Hi,
This soup has some reminiscences from oriental food so I call it “thai”. I cooked it without pasta but if you want you can add some noodles at the end.
Ingredients (2 people):
- 1 red onion
- 1 red pepper
- 6 mushrooms
- 1 tbsp green curry
- Ginger
- 1 lime
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 chicken breast
- ½ liter of coconut milk
- ½ liter of chicken stock
- A bunch of coriander
We start cutting the ingredients. Cut the red onion onto stripes, also a red pepper onto stripes, a chicken breast onto really fine stripes and about 6 mushrooms laminated.
On a pot put a bit of olive oil, 2 crushed garlic cloves a bit of grated ginger and lime (or lemon) zest. After one minute add the red pepper. Cook about 4 minutes and if the base of the pot gets to dry add some water. Then add the red onion, a bit of salt and ground pepper mix well and cook for about 3 minutes. Then add the chicken and a bit of salt, mix well, stir frequently and cook until the chicken changes its colour and gets a bit golden.
Add the juice of one lime (or lemon), a tbsp of green curry, half liter of coconut milk, and half liter of chicken stock. Keep on cooking for 15-20 minutes, finally add the mushrooms and cook for 10 minutes.
Serve with a bunch of chopped coriander over the soup. This recipe is ideal also to bring on your tupperware (be sure is watertight) to work.

Ceviche
Hello,
Ceviche is perhaps the most known peruvian dish. There are lot of ways to prepare it, basically changing the kind of fish used, and probably some of the vegetables depending on the availability. You should not consider this as “the ceviche recipe” as long is just my way to prepare and enjoy it, you will find lot of recipes across the web and I just expect this one likes to you.
Ingredients:
- Hake (200 gr without spines and skin)
- 12 prawns
- Half red onion
- 1 tomato
- Coriander
- Lime
Cut the hake without spines and skin in square pieces of about half inch. Cut the prawns in 3 or 4 pieces. Chop half red onion, chop also one tomato and chop a bunch of coriander. Finally squeeze 2 limes over all the ingredients, add salt and olive oil, mix well and let rest half hour before serving.
You should eat all the ceviche after preparing it, if yo try to eat ceviche like next day or some hours later the taste and texture won’t be the same.
