A Special Birthday Party Celebrated Thai Style

At Passion for Spices™ this week, we were thrilled to host Karen’s Special Birthday with her dear friends cooking Thai Style.

The menu was curated based on Karen’s favorite ingredients, and we came up with the following: Chicken, Coconut, and Galangal Soup, Chicken Satay, Thai Potstickers, Golden and Red Beet Carpaccio with Thai Flavor, Vegetable Pad Thai, Chicken Massaman Curry, and Chocolate Pot de Creme.

The potstickers were made with a vegetarian filling instead of its intended filling. The chopped up cabbage, carrots, and scallions were sautéed and incorporated into the potstickers.
