Chinese New Year is on February 10 through the 24th. I love all Asian foods so I will definitely be cooking a lot of stir fries in the month of February as part of the celebration. The folks at Thai Kitchen and Simply Asia gave me some wonderful products to try out from their amazing line of prepared pastes and sauces. I knew it was my opportunity to try prepared red curry paste. I adapted their Red Curry Shrimp recipe and had dinner on the table in less than 15 minutes. That means with Thai Kitchen and Simply Asia products you can make your own homemade Asian dishes (better than any take out) for a fraction of the price.
