U.S. Metric For the Quinoa Filling: 1/2 cup Quinoa, uncooked 113 g 1 cup Water 237 mL 1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper, diced small 1/2 medium 1/4 small Red Onion, diced very small 1/4 medium 2 Tbsp Cilantro, chopped finely 7 g 4 cloves Garlic, minced 4 cloves 2 Tbsp Lime Juice 30 mL To taste Black Pepper, ground To taste 12 leaves Bibb Lettuce 12 leaves For the Peanut Sauce: 1 Tbsp Honey 15 mL 2 Tbsp Soy Sauce, low sodium 30 mL 2 Tbsp Peanut Butter 30 mL 1 Tbsp Lime Juice 15 mL 1 Tbsp Water 15 mL 1 tsp Sriracha Hot Sauce 5 mL To taste Black Pepper, ground To taste Preparation: 1.

In a medium-sized bowl, combine bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, garlic, lime juice, black pepper, and quinoa.

Characterise each in terms of its schematic structure and realisational patterns. For starters (pun intended!), here is Eggins’s (2004: 68) schematic structure for recipes: Title^Enticement^Ingredients^Method^Serving Quantity Does it describe these recipes well? Have you got a better schematic structure or GSP? How do you account for variation in the recipe styles. Are there variations in each? Why? Recipe A Pork Satay Source: Far East Café Makes 18 satay skewers; serves 6 Although the concept of satay, cooking meats on skewers, originated in Indonesia, it has been enthusiastically adopted by nearly every South-east Asian cuisine and fashioned to suit the local taste and palate. This satay is a favourite Thai recipe. Other necessary recipes: Red Curry Paste Helpful Hints: Herbs, Chopping 2 tablespoons brown sugar 1 ½ teaspoons ground coriander 1 teaspoon ground cumin ½ teaspoon ground turmeric 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice 1 ½ teaspoons Thai fish sauce 2 tablespoons coconut cream 1 ½ lb pork butt or tenderloin, cut into ¾-inch cubes For Sauce: 1 oz tamarind pulp, coarsely chopped ½ cup boiling water 1 tablespoon peanut or corn oil 2 tablespoons red curry paste 1 tablespoon sweet paprika 1 cup coconut milk 1/3 cup ground dry-roasted peanuts or 6 tablespoons chunky peanut butter 2 tablespoons palm sugar or brown sugar 1 tablespoon fish sauce ½ teaspoon salt In a bowl, stir together the brown sugar, coriander, cumin, turmeric, lime juice, fish sauce and coconut cream to form a marinade.

  • Phuket's Peranakan Community Baba Yaya Culture & Way of Life
    PHUKET’S PERANAKAN COMMUNITY Baba and Yaya are terms used for the descendants of late 19th century Chinese immigrants to Phuket. Baba is used for male and Yaya for female. “Peranakan” is a Malay term that, literally translated, means “of mixed race”. Over the centuries it has become used to identify the descendants of the first Chinese settlers in southern Thailand and peninsular Malaysia and their locally-born wives. The great majority of these Chinese migrants came from southern Fujian Province and spoke Hokkien dialect. Hard-working and ambitious, they were commercially successful, gradually developing and expanding both local and regional trade. Before too long many were rich – but since few Chinese women made the long and adventurous journey south, they lacked Chinese wives. The solution was close at hand – intermarriage with local Malay and Thai women. In this way, the Peranakan community was born, with the descendants of the original hardy and adventurous Chinese migrants adopting many facets of local culture, while retaining their commercial links with home and with each other. (The ancient Peranakan family) BABA YAYA CULTURE & WAY OF LIFE Phuket is also a part of this Peranakan world, but with Yaya cuisine, too, is as distinctive as it is delicious. the important distinction that the original Hokkien settlers Spicier and less sweet than the Malay Peranakan integrated with Thai culture, making Phuket's position as cuisine, it employs more chili, coconut milk, lemon grass a Peranakan centre both distinctive and unique. and coriander. Pork dishes, too, are popular – a meat quite alien to the Muslim element of the Malay Today Phuket's Baba-Yaya are proudly reasserting Nyonya tradition.
