Mmmmm... Thai. I love Thai food. It's probably the main thing keeping me in Toronto. You can't get good Thai in the 'burbs.
Once again this recipe required a lot of chopping. I think I need to start picking recipes that will stretch his skills a little past chopping and throwing stuff together in a pan or pot. Although that is about 90% of the cooking I perform as well.
We may have overestimated the size of pot needed.
Craig concentrating on the chopping. More on that later.
I should mention, he hates mushrooms.
Chop, chop, chop, nom, nom, nom.
Chicken waiting to be dumped in the giant pot.
Ginger, lemongrass, chile peppers, all removed from the giant pot after simmering for a while.

Mostly I just thought this picture looked gross. Like worms or something.
Oh my god.
I love this soup. It tastes almost exactly like my favourite soup at Lime, but without all that laborious walking across the street to get to that restaurant. That's valuable time that could be spent eating more soup.
Now, about all that chopping:
Turns out practice does not make perfect. This sucker bled for over 24 hours until we resorted to this ridiculousness. Craig promises to be more careful around sharp knives in the future. We'll see when we resume with Craig's adventures in chopping.
