Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
As soon as we can all arrange a day off together myself and the gang - all nine of us - are to hire a boat on the Thames and set off for a picnic on some remote bank. Hopefully next week, before the glorious weather we are currently enjoying ends in the inevitable thunder storm. I am going to take this salad along as my contribution to the picnic; it's a Thai Inspired Melon Salad taken from some Sunday newspaper or other. I thought it sounded interesting -
Thai Inspired Melon Salad
- 2 garlic cloves mashed with olive oil
- 1 tbsp liquid honey
- 2 tbsp Thai Fish Sauce
- Juice of two limes and the grated zest
- 1-2 red chillies
- 1 Gala/Ogen melon, peeled and chopped into 1 inch cubes
- 2oz/50g unsalted roasted peanuts
- Garnish - plenty of chopped coriander and a little mint
No instructions were given - I guess you just mix the main ingredients together and top with the peanuts and garnish. As for a wine suggestion to accompany; assuming you cannot readily get hold of any Thai wine, I would go for iced water.... or a Singha beer.

Weak.

P.S. David, If you don't recognize a misspelling, better go back to cooking simple things like Kraft mac n' cheese.
