Recipes with half a lime
Appetizer, sweet and sour
Thai Style Hot and Sour Squid is a bright, punchy dish of squid rings briefly blanched, cooled, and dressed in a fragrant chilli-herb sauce. The dressing is blended from green and red chillies, onion, coriander roots, mint leaves, and garlic, then balanced with soy sauce, fish sauce, sesame oil, salt, sugar, and half a lime’s juice—finished with sliced lemon poured over the squid for a fresh, citrusy lift.
Thai pork chops offer a rich and diverse flavor profile, providing a unique taste experience. Using pork ribs as the main ingredient, they are infused with herbs such as cilantro roots, lemongrass, Thai coriander, and kaffir lime leaves, along with lime, fish sauce, bird's eye chili, and turmeric powder to create a tangy, spicy Thai flavor. After marinating until flavorful, they are air-fried until golden brown and finally brushed with honey. The result is a slightly charred and sweet exterior while remaining juicy inside, offering a refreshing and irresistible taste.
