Several years ago we welcomed the New year in Thailand. I'm not going to tell you what impressed us the country of "a Thousand smiles", but I will say that we fell in love with her. In people, in the kitchen, in nature. Especially impressed with the kitchen. It's something, it's a taste explosion, it would seem, not incongruous products are formed in such a Symphony of flavor and aroma. One of the dishes forever won my heart. It's fried shrimp. We tried them in different restaurants, but found one that we then went to dinner every night. There they were especially delicious. At the end of the holiday we were out and the waitress with a smile, without asking what we want to eat, carrying me a bowl of shrimp and my husband the ribeye steak.))) And the last day, I decided the recipe to find out. It was very funny, I guess, for us to observe: the owner of the restaurant is German, Thai chefs. I don't know any Thai, or German and very little English. Thais speak English in this restaurant didn't quite, I do not know how they formed relationships with German))) so I could explain what I want, and the owner kindly invited me into the kitchen, as they explain me the prescription could not))) And since this is a dish I cook at home for their friends. Of course, the recipe I adapted under the Russian way, and something I still do not understand, but the main points developed in the perfect recipe. Guests we are going quite often, and always ask for the shrimp in my original recipe. This year to celebrate the New year we are home, but the dish is cooked, and we will remember this magical country.
