TIME-FOR-THAI TOASTIE
Serves 4
These toasties involve a little more preparation but they do offer interesting avours. Of course,
you can take a shortcut and use some of the excellent Thai sauce ingredients available on
supermarket shelves.
(Bread is seldom served in Thai cuisine and this lling would usually be served with sticky rice.)
Ingredients:
8 slices white or wholemeal bread
Extra light olive oil spray
Large chicken llet, diced
Little extra light olive oil
1 clove of garlic, crushed or nely chopped
1 teaspoon dried crushed chilli (more or less, to taste)
2 tablespoon chopped Thai basil leaves* (available in Asian grocers)
4 teaspoons nam pla (sh sauce)
Approx. 1 tablespoon coconut cream
Method:
1. Lightly spray one side of each slice of bread with the extra light olive oil and set aside.
2. Heat oil in a small pan, add the diced chicken fillet and the garlic and stir until chicken is
cooked through. Remove from heat, stir in chilli, basil and nam pla. Allow to cool slightly
before stirring through the coconut cream. The mixture needs to be moist but not wet, so
adjust coconut cream quantity accordingly.
3. Place two bread slices into Toastie Maker, spoon in filling and top with remaining bread
slices. Seal Toastie Maker and cook until ready.
* If Thai basil is unavailable, use regular sweet basil or coriander.
