Broccoli in red
Lately I’ve been inspired by the Thai cuisine, and I had some sweet potatoes left and broccoli and thought I would build something that would taste a bit like Thailand. I’ve never been to Thailand before, but I had a bit of thai food from time to time from the local ethnic restaurants, so that’s why I think it’s a bit related.
