Quicker Baked Potato

Try this method for speeding up the potato baking process (for a better texture than those that you microwave). Pre-heat the oven to 400. Place the potato in boiling water for 10 minutes. Bake for 30 minutes. This will cut the cooking time in half.

salads, vegetables, thai, thailand

4 oz green papaya
1 garlic clove
3 small red or green chilis
1 tablespoon roast peanuts
1 oz long beans; chopped into 1-inch (2.5
2 tablespoon lemon juice
3 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 teaspoon sugar
1 medium tomato - chopped into segments
2 large chinese cabbage leaves

Peel the outer skin from the green papaya and finely shred the flesh on a cheese grater or chop very finely into long thin shreds. Set aside. In a mortar, lightly puond the garlic, add the chilis and lightly pound while occasionally stirring with a spoon to prevent the resulting paste from thickening. Add the long beans and slightly bruise them. Add the shredded papaya, lightly pound and stir until all the ingredients are blended together. Add the lemon juice, soy sauce and sugar and stir into the mixture. Finally add the tomato, stirring once. Arrange the Chinese cabbage leaves on a serving dish and turn the yam on to them. Diners should tear off a section of cabbage leaf to use as a scoop for the yam, the two being eaten together. This dish is especially good with sticky rice.
