Easy 'Thai':
Cook brown rice around 40 min. Chop up one or two thai peppers and simmer on low in oil 10 minutes with fan on. Cube chicken and mix with dry spices(red curry, garlic, ginger, cilantro). Marinade, cook, put aside in big bowl. Cook veggies(spinach or stir fry) in remaining oil and add to big bowl. Add coconut milk, green curry paste, brown sugar, fish sauce and heat on medium until blended. Add back big bowl ingredients. Fresh basil if you have it.
