I lost a piece of mine to them the first time I worked with Ilse and JB. This was almost a year ago at the “Radio Regenbogen Award”. They were presented a “Newcomer 2014” award for their incredibly successful single “Calm After The Storm” and their debut album.
\nWhat a lovely and down to earth lot they are. Working with “The Linnets” is fun. It is almost like being on a little holiday trip with good friends. They make it easy to forget that you are actually working if there weren’t journalists, photographers and camera crews reminding you that you are in the middle of a job 😄<\/p>\n
The last time I saw them we ordered Thai take-away after a radio gig for NDR2. So I decided to go towards this culinary direction in my recipe for them.<\/p>\n
Thai is always a good pick as it is easy to make, fresh, healthy and can be cooked vegan as well, if desired.<\/p>\n
In this case I had to go for a chicken curry as Ilse & JB mentioned chicken as one of their favourite ingredients in my questionnaire. Tofu or shrimps are good choices as well…or simply go for veggies only, if you like.
\nIf you don’t fancy a certain veggie or ingredient in this recipe feel free to use something else instead. Be creative.<\/p>\n
