Thai Cooking on a Tuesday Evening

i never knew until today what the difference was between shallots and spring onions and leeks. thank god for the internet! that wonderful invention that has the answer to pretty much everything except "what is the definition of a loathsome disease?". i just recently found out as well that someone with a loathsome disease can be prevented from entering the country.

aloy and her boyfriend, gert, are coming over for dinner tonight and i decided on a thai menu which i am still experimenting on. hence the sudden interest in spring onions and shallots. fritz told me that spring onions are just small onions so in lieu of putting in spring onions, i chopped up some real onions instead and put those in the green curry paste i made. in other words, if the curry tastes funny later on, i will just blame him. one of the conveniences of having a white boy for a boyfriend: easier to pin the blame on!
