Previous review<\/a><\/p>\n

3. Lara Lee, Coconut and Sambal: Recipes from my Indonesian Kitchen<\/a>. Yes, I have been learning how to cook Indonesian food, a natural extension of my previous interest in cuisines from India, Malaysia, and Singapore. This is an excellent book for several reasons, and a better book yet for a pandemic. First, you can fold it open easily on the kitchen counter. Second, the pages can take some wear and tear. Third, the key ingredients are readily storable. Galangal, turmeric, and narrow red chiles all freeze very well. Refrigerated lemon grass stays good for at least a few weeks. Shallots and garlic and coconut milk and cream are easy enough to buy and store. This is actually the #1 issue for a cookbook, if like me you cannot so often plan your cooking in advance. The Thai grocery in Falls Church<\/a> has all the \u201cmarginal\u2019 ingredients as well. On top of everything, the resulting food product is yummy!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
