I love Thai red curry (Gaeng Phed Gai), and this was a nice and quick recipe. I made some adjustments to make it more authentic. I used fish sauce for salt, and I added basil and lime leaves - and the vegetables that was in my fridge: carrots, peas, bell peppers and a tin of bamboo shots. If you don't get lime leaves, you can use zest and juice from one lime, or lemon grass. It's such a rich dish that I really think it needs some acid. But this was a nice starting point :-)

Easy to make, very moist and tasty! Next time I'll try to add some (frozen) berries - for example blue berries or red current - to the filling. I think it would be even more delicious with that extra acid and freshness :-)

I have one big issue with this recipe: That it wasn't double to begin with :-) No, seriously - if you're like me and love the combination of chocolate and orange, these will be your favorite cookies from now on. I just can't understand why I haven't thought of this before! I baked them for 10 minutes - and that with my oven, that was enough. I cut back somewhat on the chocolate to about 150 grams. I think that was sufficient. Also, I used walnuts instead of pecans, and as the walnuts have a stronger flavor, I cut back on the amount here as well. The result was great, and I know I'll make these cookies again and again. Thank you so much for sharing this awesome recipe!
