A recipe from the cuisine, allowed in a / diet.

And here’s another example of Asian cooking (Thai to be more exact) at its best. It’s hot and nutty, like in peanut and coconut-nutty and we didn’t use dairy at all. We substituted butter and milk with coconut oil and coconut milk. We would serve this over cooked rice, but maybe some of you would prefer it as is.
