Spicy Sausage, Saigon Garlic-Lemon Wings, Thai Noodle Salad

This is my official entry for the Thai One On throwdown. I wanted to do chicken and pork so I hit the cookbooks for some inspiration.

For the pork I found a Spicy Sausage recipe in The True Thai Cookbook by Victor Sodsook. His version is stuffed into a casing but I decided to do them like a naked fatty. I diced some boneless country ribs and ground it up in a food processor with all of his recommended spices. Lime zest, Thai fish sauce, lots of chopped garlic, white pepper, ground coriander, chopped cilantro stems, and a healthy dose of red curry paste. These were cooked indirect/smoked with one piece of peach wood.





I formed some logs with waxed paper and let them set up for a couple hours.







My chicken was adapted from a recipe I found in Steven Raichlen’s Barbecue Bible.
I prepared a recipe from Vietnam I call Saigon Garlic-Lemon Wings. His version uses lemongrass which I didn’t have time to search for so I used the recommended substitute lemon zest. I made a marinade of garlic, shallots, fresh ginger, lemon zest, brown sugar, Thai fish sauce, lemon juice, and oil. The wings are spread open with a skewer to maximum the surface area. They were cooked over a charcoal fire and basted with some of the marinade.





Ready for the grill.



I forgot to take a shot of them on the pit but here they are all done and ready to plate.



To round things I made a cold Thai Noodle Salad.
It was made with purple corn and rice noodles mixed with some broccoli slaw with carrots & red cabbage. The dressing has Thai sweet red chili sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, and soy sauce.





Please use this shot as my official entry. I know it's blurry but it is the best one I took.:doh:



I have to say everything came out better than I expected. My family just loved it, and so did I.
Thanks for looking.

Awesome Brady!!!

Looks delicious.

Didn't think this one was worthy, but I'll post since there's only 1 other farking entry.

My official entry to Thai one on.

Here's how it went down. Sticky rice, steaming on a splatter screen over some boiling water.....after it soaked for 10 hours.



Then I made pork with garlic, mushrooms and peppercorns...



Garlic and pork browning...yes I need a bigger wok...



Shrooms going in..



I then missed all the additional shots with the soy, etc. It goes quick on the wok.

Then I made Beef and Asparagus....





Ooh, and string beans with bell pepper, fresno pepper and bean sprouts...



Plated...



Enjoy!

Looks good to me. :clap2: Nice job!

I't definitely worthy and it looks great. I guess everyone was busy last week, and didn't have time to put together an entry. Thats understandable because it's hard to do one every week. I wonder if there is anything we can do to build interest in the throwdowns? I have to admit until I did my first entry a couple weeks ago I didn't spend any time here. It was so much fun that I really pushed hard to find time to do mine. I think if some new people would give it a try they would get hooked too. Lets hope it was just an off week and not a sign that people are loosing interest. Anyway congrats on your dish now I need to find me a wok.:thumb:

I think it was more that the last throwdown was real late getting put up for a vote that a lot of the regulars held off on this one. I have only done 3 so far but I really enjoy them. I hope more people get into them as well.

Not an entry, but I did make this last night!
Thai Guayteow Lahd nah

I've got an entry that I made specifically for this. Just haven't been able to find the time to put it all together for an entry, hopefully this evening if the entry thread can remain open a little longer than normal.

I'll leave it open till Wednesday midnight PST.

I knew we'd be throwing our entries away when Bucc's submits.
