Ode To CP Shrimp Wonton

Me knows, what a topic, what a heresy, but wait, who doesn’t like good food. And who’s never in a hurry. See? But even when you got time: CP Shrimp Wonton are … well … remarkable for a frozen food that you just nuke for two minutes and then enjoy.

They’re piling up in our kitchen, the black round plastic rice bowls of CP Shrimp Wonton. They’ve become a staple food. Just add some water, wave it and you got a full-bodied yet pleasant bouillon broth with divinely thin wonton pastry wrapped around juicy whole shrimp.

I know, aren’t there better ways than to support the monopolisms of Charoen Pokphand aka CP. True Corporation, 7-Eleven – and who again bankrolled the PAD? What a reactionary line of thought.

Let bygones be bygones. Those shrimp wonton make it easy to become ignorant. CP Foods has even an Orange Shrimp Wonton recipe online. And if broth only they’re too plain for you go for the Sesame Sauce type.

Sets you back some 50 respectively 80 baht the bowl. Money well spent. If you happen to see a promotion, stockpile them in your deep freezer.

Any other frozen foods to die for?

“Any other frozen foods to die for?”

You did not specify Thai … so … Steak & Kidney Pie made by Lady Pie.

Australian Gourmet Pies – http://www.ladypie.com

Grab them from the frozen food section at Villa.

They also come in other flavors. Steak & Mushroom, Australian (minced beef). I believe that’s about it.

They set you back 95 baht each, but they do come in handy.

Btw – Even though I do feel that they are the best pot pies in Thailand, I don’t eat them. The man does.

You can take a British man out of Britain, but you can’t take him away from his Steak & Kidney pie …
