Spaa Peanut Curry and Jasmine Rice Meal, 11.64-Ounce (Pack of 12)


Customer Review: even picky eaters will enjoy!
I adore this product's taste and ease of preparation. The taste is pretty good, although not as flavorful as strip Thai restaraunt prepared. It has a really nutty smooth taste. Wish they had more potatoes, though, and didn't use sunflower oil in the rice. Not thrilled about the packaging of the product. I wish they would use a better plastic, or just remove the plastic tray entirely and just stick to microwavable pouches; it has to come packaged in something, so might as well prepare in existing packaging.


2 pounds walleye fillets

1/2 cup lemon juice

4 tablespoons dry white wine

4 cloves garlic, minced

Directions

How to Cook Walleye

2. Lay the fillets in the pan to coat one side, then turn to coat the other side. Cover pan with plastic wrap and place in refrigerator for 1 hour to marinate the fish.

5. Stir horseradish into melted butter in a bowl, then spoon this mixture over the walleye fillets and serve.

1 teaspoon garlic salt

Directions

You can cook walleye fillets using any recipe that you would for other species of white fish. Here are two that I like.

1. Blend lemon juice, lime juice, garlic, olive oil, wine, parsley and rosemary together until they form a kind of paste.

1/2 cup lime juice

Ingredients

3. Remove fillets from the pan and sprinkle them with lemon pepper and rosemary.

Whenever I hear the word "walleye," I think of Minnesota and cold northern lakes. I picture men huddled in fishing shacks, drinking peppermint schnapps while dropping lines through holes cut in the ice.

These images and others are no doubt due to my rapt listening every week to "Prairie Home Companion," but I don't think they're far off the mark. For walleye is a quintessential northern fish--in fact, it's Minnesota's official state fish. It is also found in other northern-tier states as well as throughout most of Canada.

1. In a pan large enough to accommodate the fillets, mix lemon juice, lime juice and garlic salt.

1/4 cup melted butter

2 tablespoons horseradish

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil

Walleye is a prize game fish, but it is also caught commercially and processed into fillets. The flesh of walleye is definitely good eating--white, firm and tasty. Some people consider it to be the best-tasting of all freshwater fish.

2. Place fish on broiler and brush with the paste. Broil fillets 20 to 30 minutes (10 to 15 minutes per side). Serve, garnishing as you wish with paprika, lemon wedges, etc.

1/4 teaspoon crushed rosemary

4. Cook over hot barbecue grill for 8 to 10 minutes (4 to 5 minutes per side).

A few trivia facts about walleye: The name comes from the fact that the eyes of walleyes "glow" by reflecting light, much as a cat's eyes do. Walleyes can grow up to about 15 pounds in weight and reach two-and-a-half feet in length. Walleyes are nocturnal fish, feeding at night, which is when anglers are most likely to try to catch them.
