[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 9064005, member: 19675"] Went to my local Burmese place for dinner tonight. I’m working my way through their menu- no duds so far! Tonight, I had their Mandalay Pork Curry. And that may be the next dish I bring home from them for takeout to share. The chunks of pork were spoon tender. The curry sauce was mild but very well seasoned. All in all, a great gateway dish. (Mom has eaten there with me before, but some of the dishes are too spicy for her now, and Dad hasn’t had a taste yet.) Been talking to the oldest son in the family that owns the place about cooking. I’ve given him some pointers that have helped him out. I always ask how he’s doing learning to cook like his mom does (she’s the main cook), but he’s more into grilling. Mostly Texas/creole sty stuff, as it happens. 😁 Tonight, I suggested he take some of the Burmese spice mixes and try using them in a marinade or dry rub for his grilling. He hadn’t thought of that, yet, but I bet he would’ve. [/QUOTE]
