2 thick stalks fresh lemongrass, de-stemmed with the bristly tops cut off

Equipment:

frying pan

food processor

knife

Cooking instruction summary:

Procedures 1 First, reduce the coconut milk: Pour it into a nonstick skillet and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook uncovered, for fifteen or so minutes, until the milk has reduced a bit and swirls of oil begin to appear on the surface. 2 To make the paste: Cut the aromatic part of the lemongrass into 1/4-inch thick slices. Place the cut lemongrass, shallots, garlic, turmeric, galangal, and chilies in a small food processor. Pulse until the consistency is chunky-smooth, adding a teaspoon or so of water if necessary to get the paste moving along. 3 Add the paste to the coconut milk after it has been simmering for 15 minutes; then simmer for 30 minutes or so, until the liquid has reduced by 1/2. 4 While the coconut milk is simmering, scrub the potatoes and slit them halfway through with a knife. When the coconut milk has reduced by half, add the potatoes and simmer, uncovered for 30 to 45 minutes, until the only the oil is left in the pan. 5 Reduce the heat to low and sauté the potatoes in the remaining coconut oil. Continue to sauté, stirring the potatoes around every 5 minutes, until the skins are nicely browned—about 30 minutes longer. Allow the dish to rest for a few minutes, then serve.

Food Trivia

The fig is also a fertility symbol and the Arab association with male genitals is so strong that the original word 'fig' is considered improper.

Food Joke

The Passover test [My thanks to Jeff G for the following] Sean is waiting for a bus when another man joins him at the bus stop. After 20 minutes of waiting, Sean takes out a sandwich from his lunch box and starts to eat. But noticing the other man watching, Sean asks, "Would you like one? My wife has made me plenty." "Thank you very much, but I must decline your kind offer," says the other man, "I’m Rabbi Levy." "Nice to meet you, Rabbi," says Sean, "but my sandwiches are alright for you to eat. They only contain cheese. There’s no meat in them." "It’s very kind of you," says Rabbi Levy, "but today we Jews are celebrating Passover. It would be a great sin to eat a sandwich because during the 8 days of Passover, we cannot eat bread. In fact it would be a sin comparable to the sin of adultery." "OK," says Sean, "but it’s difficult for me to understand the significance of what you’ve just said." Many weeks later, Sean and Rabbi Levy meet again. Sean says, "Do you remember, Rabbi, that when we last met, I offered you a sandwich which you refused because you said eating bread on Passover would be as great a sin as that of adultery?" Rabbi Levy replies, "Yes, I remember saying that." "Well, Rabbi," says Sean, "that day, I went over to my mistress’s apartment and told her what you said. We then tried out both the sins, but I must admit, we just couldn’t see the comparison."
