Yay, a recipe fit for the healthy, no artificial ingredients and made from whole foods. However, brown sugar is just processed white sugar with the molasses added back in (all these years I thought it was less processed) a good addition would be rapadura sugar (dried sugar cane juice) and check the label of the fish sauce for MSG. Thanks, will make this one on the weekend. Have a good one : ) x x
It was really delicious Narelle… I am learning slowly
Learning from each other inspires us both : )
Hi Kat. reading your chicken salad recipe it struck me as funny that we say, “Julienne the carrot; cut the capsicum into thin strips.” I am not criticising you – we all say the same thing. We’re a funny lot, us humans.
