Ahhhhh... I wish I could eat bread with seeds. I try not to cheat but
it is difficult. There are so many breads that contain seeds that sound
so appealing! Also other things cooked using seeds and ground nuts.
Another recipe my mom brought back from Thailand, chicken strips coated
with walnuts and sesame seeds. Deep fried. Extremely addictive and
highly fattening! They're supposed to be appetizers but oh my!
I haven't made them in about 30 years. I know I've posted the recipe
here before... h yes! I found this on recipelink, which acknowledges
they copied this from my RFC post in 2001:
Walnut-Sesame Chicken (strips)
rec.food.cooking/Jill McQuown/2001
Mom got this from a Thai cookbook (sorry I don't know the name) when we
lived in Bangkok years ago. It is to die for in terms of flavor. I
haven't prepared this myself in about 18 years. This stuff is great!
2 whole chicken breasts, halved
1 cup finely chopped walnuts
1 cup sesame seeds
2 egg whites
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup cornstarch
2 tsp. MSG (surely optional, perhaps use salt)
1 tsp. sugar
2 Tbsp. sherry
4 cups vegetable oil
Place the chicken breasts on a foil-lined baking sheet and partially
freeze for 30 minutes. This makes it easier to slice very thin. Slice
crosswise and on the diagonal into paper-thin slices.
In a pie pan, combine nuts with sesame seeds. Combine egg whites,
cornstarch, milk, MSG and sugar in a small bowl. Stir to make a stiff
batter. Add sherry and stir until blended.
Dip chicken slices into batter, then roll in sesame/nut mixture to coat.
Place on baking sheet in single layer until all are done.
Heat oil in deep fryer, deep skillet or a wok to 300 F degrees. Fry
chicken strips 4-5 minutes, until golden brown.
