Help me with my come dine with me........

Well, my absolute favourite 'French' meal is Moules with white wine, garlic and cream *drools over computer keyboard*, but I know that is not to everyone's taste. If you like that idea though, let me know as I do have a recipe at home.

Also have a really nice Thai chicken with lime and coconut recipe which is delicious. You serve it with rice. Take your fancy???

FRENCH: Onion soup with cheese croutons (yummers) https://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/frenchonionsoupwithg_7922 then steak with frites (that's chips to you and I!) ha or duck a l'orange (not a fan of the latter). Boeuf bourguignon (lush) with mash?

THAI: fishcakes to start - dead easy and yum https://www.deliciousmagazine.co.uk/recipes/thai-fishcakes/

Penang or mussaman curry for main ?

Penang: get the solid cream out of a can of coconut milk. Pop it in a hot pan until it turns to oil. Add a big dollop of red curry paste. Add the chicken until lightly cooked. Add the rest of the can of coconut milk. Bring to the boil. Add soy sauce, fish sauce and chopped kaffir lime leaves to taste. Make sure chicken is cooked and voila! You can also add chopped baby corn and snow peas if you want. Serve with Thai fragrant rice.

Mussaman - warning - this isn't an easy recipe and very fiddly but it tastes AMAZING.

Recipes for all of the above please. I need new things up my sleeve and am bored with all my current favourites.

I have a good recipe for mussels in coconut milk and thai herbs, is really easy (once you've got past the de-bearding faff) and utterly nommy. nomnomnom.

I cooked this for OH's Gran and she loved it so much she asked for the recipe. It's fairly easy to make as well.

I like spangles recipe ideas but I do love a Thai curry, If you didnt fancy doing a curry this jamie oliver thai sea bass thing is really nice and dinner party friendly in the prep as well

I use cornflower instead of the tapioca starch and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and instead of a special rice steamer I just use my normal steamer and whack the stuff in the rice bowl that came with it
