lazing in thailand

I'm sitting at the Daily Dessert Cafe once again in Chiang Mai. One of my Thai-American friends mentioned how startled he was about the occurrence of roti in Thai food vocabulary. I've learned the pleasures of the roti, and it's an easy way to combine Thai/Indian/Western tastes all at once practically.

Shrimp Salad Roti Rolls

Roti
Small cooked and peeled shrimp
mayonnaise (preferrably japanese style)
minced shallots
minced coriander
minced mint
lime

Sauce
Green curry paste
Coconut chutney

Assembled shrimp salad from above ingredients, roll up roti, daub a bit of green curry paste with coconut chutney, serve with lettuce tomato and cucumber.
