I just love Thai cuisine. This is a lovely recipe developed by Australian TV-chef Bill Granger, a wonderful cook! Serve with lots of steamed rice and a Thai cucumber salad.
When you use a fairly expensive, rich, and well-marbled fish like wild salmon, you want to make sure you don't clutter it with too many spices or overcook it. Coconut milk maintains that velvety mouthfeel...
There's no need to make a special trip to the store to make a special dessert-just look to your cupboard! Rice is the foundation for coconut pudding squares, which use up any dried fruit or nuts you may...

"Cassava" is a dessert from Guam. Traditionally served at barbecues these chewy tapioca and coconut bars are sure to be a hit anytime. Cassava is what the root of the yucca plant is called and tapioca...
