We started out with one big batch of this, throwing in lots of carrots, onion, chiles and loads of coconut milk, then we split it up and did half with fish and half with mock duck. the fish we may have overcooked a little bit as it was a little dry, but the mock duck was spectacular.
If we were to do it again, maybe add a little more spice, and some sort of zing, maybe lemongrass or thai basil. I’m really really looking forward to the leftovers that are in my fridge right now.!

Orgasmic Mac and Cheese
Inspired by the mac and cheese I made last week, Alyssa and I decided to make one one of the mac and cheese recipies from one of our new favorite food blogs (what we’re eating .com). And hot damn, this was good. We included lots of baby portabella mushrooms and drizzled some truffle oil over the top. The wole recipe can be found here.
We substituted rigatoni for the run-of-the-mill elbow noodles that the recipe called for because, well, it was just a good idea. The cheese base was basicly a Bechamel sauce (flour, milk, herbs) with lots of cheese added in. We tried to sneak the goat cheese past Nicki, but it didn’t work, she detected it right away.

Well. Here’s the first posting in our blog. Still a lot of things we need to do with it, but I’ll get to that. In the meantime. Here’s what I made on Sunday night. I didn’t have the heart to spend the extra money on the Creme Fraiche or the cave aged Comte cheese, so I substituted with a mix of Gruyere and Fontina for the Comte, and Creame Cheese and a little extra heavy whipping cream for the Creme Fraiche.
