Introducing: Spicy Thai Tacos with Avocado Slaw

Today, I’m excited to share a recipe that combines the bold flavors of Thai cuisine with the familiar comfort of tacos. These Spicy Thai Tacos with Avocado Slaw are perfect for a fun weeknight dinner or a casual get-together with friends. The unique blend of ingredients will surprise your taste buds in the best way possible.

Ingredients:

  • Shrimp (200g)
  • Coconut milk (100ml)
  • Thai red curry paste (2 tbsp)
  • Lime juice (1 tbsp)
  • Garlic (2 cloves, minced)
  • Ginger (1-inch piece, grated)
  • Tortillas (4)
  • Avocado (1, diced)
  • Cabbage (100g, shredded)
  • Carrot (1, julienned)
  • Cilantro (a handful, chopped)
  • Peanuts (50g, chopped)

Kitchen Tools:

  • skillet
  • mixing bowl
  • grater
  • tongs
  • knife
  • cutting board

To start, heat a skillet over medium heat and add the coconut milk, Thai red curry paste, lime juice, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Stir well to combine and let the mixture simmer for a few minutes until fragrant. Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook until they are pink and cooked through.

While the shrimp is cooking, heat the tortillas in a separate skillet until they are warm and slightly toasted. In a mixing bowl, combine the diced avocado, shredded cabbage, julienned carrot, and chopped cilantro to make the avocado slaw.

Once the shrimp is cooked, assemble the tacos by filling each tortilla with the spicy Thai shrimp mixture and topping it off with the avocado slaw. Garnish with chopped peanuts for an extra crunch and serve hot.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 800g, with 4 servings. Each serving weighs around 200g, and has an estimated calorie count of 350 calories.

One clever tip for this recipe is to squeeze some fresh lime juice over the assembled tacos before serving. The acidity will help cut through the richness of the coconut milk and elevate the flavors even more.

I hope you give these Spicy Thai Tacos with Avocado Slaw a try and enjoy the fusion of flavors in every bite. Feel free to customize the ingredients to suit your taste preferences and make this dish your own. Bon appétit!
