Mar Hor (Vegan)
Serve: 3-4
Ingredients:
150 gram Shallots – finely sliced
1 bulb Garlic – finely chopped
1 Red chilli – thinly sliced
12 leaf Coriander
1/2 Pineapple – cut into bite-sized pieces
4 tablespoon Roasted unsalted peanuts – ground
4 tablespoon Coconut palm sugar
2 tablespoon Soy sauce
2 tablespoon Water
1 cup Sunflower oil
-Heat the oil in a frying pan. Fry the shallots and garlic until they are crisp and golden. Remove from the pan and transfer them to a kitchen towel.
-Add the coconut palm sugar, soy sauce and water into a small saucepan. Keep stirring until the sugar is dissolved.
-Add the deep-fried shallots, garlic, and ground peanuts. Stir until the mixture becomes a sticky paste. Leave it to cool.
-Arrange the pineapple bites on a serving plate. Drop a heaped teaspoon on each pineapple bite.
-Garnish with the chilli and coriander. Best served at room temperature.
Tip:
– Haven’t got coconut palm sugar- replace it with brown sugar instead.
-Mar Hor is an ancient Thai canape. It is a refreshing and light appetizer and has a rather sophisticated presentation. The original recipe uses minced pork but I think this vegan version is absolutely delicious.
