      I’m not sure how common it is, but Khao Soi would be awesome to watch. This video was great, and please continue to leave in the bloopers; I love it!
      I just introduced my kids to Thai eggplant on Valentine’s Day (in Tom Kha), and all I could think about was how I mostly ate them in green curry when I lived in Thailand, and Voila! Here’s my how-to video for using up the extra eggplants! Perfect timing. 😊
      PS You found yet another use for The Food Lab-that thing is heavy! 😂 Oh, and can I use snippets or frames from this video for KAN?

    At this point, I would gladly watch your parents try even basic stuff: PB&J sandwiches, boxed raisins, plain rice, lol - more of your parents, please!! Loving the fedora on Dad; Mom is right - he's looking younger and younger!! And Mom is glowing also! 🙌🏿💞🌿

    Dad (Depak) is one of the few men I have seen who can really rock a fedora. He really looks good with it on his head. As a couple, you can tell that the two of them were meant for each other. Just the best! They both must be very proud of their daughter, and I doubt that they have any complaints about their son-in-law. What a great family!
    Food looks pretty good too. I love green curry, so I will have to try this one this coming week after I get the ingredients from the store.

    • @RainbowPlantLife

    the outer layers of lemongrass you can make tea from to do second brew of kombucha (to flavor it) and it comes out really tasty. use boiled water, throw in leftovers of lemongrass tough parts, then add one or two cups of sugar and cover with foil, let cool naturally, open, fish out all lemongrass and add to kombucha first brew and let this tea "feed it" to flavor it. cool in fridge and drink.

    Laughed out loud when you bruised the kaffir lime leaves and breathed in their aroma… yup I do the same thing when I make Thai curries or soups. Having my own tree in a pot outside my back door is essential! Houston does not always get cold, but when it goes below 45F I roll the tree into the garage. This year it has been in out , in out. 😂😂. Lemon grass in the garden too! Love your videos and the bloopers. Introduce all of my friends to your channel when I cook one of your recipes and they rave! Made vegan tofu palak paneer last week for an Indian feast. Awesome amazing and delicious as always. I love Torchy’s deep fried avocado tortillas wraps. Wondered if there was a way to make that less unhealthy??? But still tasty. I can never get the crumbs to stick to the avocado.

    • @RainbowPlantLife
      @RainbowPlantLife  Рік тому

      Isn’t the aroma so magical? There’s nothing quite like it. So incredible that you have your own tree in your backyard. I need to get one of those! I joke (but not really joking) that I would love to make a lime leaves and lemongrass perfume 😂 I’m so happy you’re enjoying my recipes! I don’t think I’ve ever heard of Torchys… But that does sound delicious!

    I can't believe it! I am always jealous of all the ingredients you can find in the US. Especially the vegan alternatives.
    I live in a small town in Germany and we have a little Asian market that has pretty much everything. Even Coriander with the roots. I always thought that was normal and just how thai Coriander is sold in authentic markets. Now I am even more impressed with our little store 😃😃
    Btw, my mom regularly calls me by my aunts name. And my aunt often calls me Rocky, which is her dog. She claims it's because both names start with R 🤦🏼‍♀️🙈
