The Foods of Thailand: Recipes from the Famous Sukhothai Restaurant in Zurich




Pax, West Virginia, is the home of The Corner, formerly known as Kelly's Korner, a family-owned eatery that serves up some scrumptious country cooking. You won't find anything fancy on the menu or for a daily special. What you will find is hot dogs, hamburgers, open-faced turkey and roast beef sandwiches, and club sandwiches prepared with TLC, usually accompanied by crisp, hot-from-the-oven French fries or hand-whipped mashed potatoes with homemade gravy.

Breakfast is my favorite meal at Kelly's. Perfectly cooked eggs, crisp bacon, toast or biscuits (no bagels here) and a steaming cup of coffee. Of course, that's all after a rousing "Good Morning!" Additionally, there may be pancakes or French toast, all made from scratch like the biscuits. And don't forget the sausage gravy to cover those biscuits (if you get there before my family eats!).

Possibly the best thing about The Corner is the folks who eat there and the folks that stop by to visit. Most of the locals eat here, and since Pax is relatively small, just about everyone knows everybody else. I love to sit back, enjoy my coffee, and listen to the chatter about farms, crops, the big reunion coming up (Pax has a reunion every two years for graduates from Pax High School, and it's big doin's, let me tell you--we're talking over three thousand people coming to a town with a population of about 200 give or take a few) or state politics, always an interesting topic anywere in West Virginia.

So if you find yourself driving on I-77 in southern West Virginia, look for the Pax exit and enjoy a meal at The Corner. You may have to wait a minute or two for a table during the busy breakfast, lunch, and dinner hours, but you'll be glad you did.

Roast turkey is a great family favourite, especially at Thanksgiving and Christmas. But after the feast, comes the question how to use the leftovers? Here are five ways to make the most of your festive bird.

  1. Leftover turkey sandwich recipes

    Use thick slices of turkey breast and add a little of the dark meat for flavour. Use different breads, like ciabatta rolls, baguettes, wholemeal bread, or toasted white bread.
    Add other ingredients, such as:
    • salad leaves like lettuce or spinach
    • sliced avocado
    • cherry tomatoes or thinly sliced beetroot
    • wafer-thin cooked ham
    • crumbled crispy bacon
    • sliced hard-boiled egg
    • soft cheeses, like Brie or Camembert
    • mustard, cranberry sauce, leftover turkey stuffing, pickles, mayonnaise, sliced gherkins, or radishes.

  2. Leftover turkey salad recipes
    Use both white and dark meat. Cube or shred the leftover turkey.
    • Toss with toasted almonds, thin slices of fresh mango and soft salad leaves. Dress with a light vinaigrette.
    • Mix with cubed avocado, slivered yellow and red pepper, sweetcorn and halved cherry tomatoes. Dress with olive oil, whisked with lime juice and chilli.
    • Stir shredded turkey breast meat through cooled cooked thin rice noodles. Add shredded lettuce, matchstick slices of carrot and cucumber, and dress with a well-blended mixture of 2 parts light soy sauce to 1 part sweet chilli sauce.
  3. Leftover turkey soup recipes
    • Add diced turkey to a basic vegetable soup recipe. Try it with celery and apple, in a chowder with sweetcorn, or as part of a spicy oriental soup, with noodles and shredded leaves.
    • Liven up turkey soup with herbs and spices. Try thyme and oregano, ground coriander, smoked paprika.
  4. Leftover turkey and pasta recipes

    • Mix diced turkey into tomato and sweet pepper sauce and serve with rice or pasta.
    • Stir pesto through chopped leftover turkey for an instant pasta sauce.
  5. Leftover turkey curry recipes
    • Turkey makes a great curry. Soften a chopped onion, add cubed turkey and curry paste. Cook for a few minutes, add stock. Stir well, simmer until turkey is heated throught. Serve with rice and naan bread.
    • Cook as above, but try red or green Thai curry paste, and use liquid made with creamed coconut grated into boiling water, or use canned coconut milk.

If you have more leftover turkey than you can use straight away, carve off slices on the same day that the turkey was cooked, interleave with cling wrap, overwrap with foil, pack in airtight plastic bags, and freeze. Keeps well in the freezer for 2-3 months.
