Chef's notes

If you do not wish to make the vegetable stock concentrate use sufficient stock cubes or Marigold Swiss bouillon powder to make 1 litre of stock.

Peeling ginger

There is no need to peel ginger. As a result of attending a Thai cookery demo, we have learnt that peeling ginger is unnecessary unless for aesthetic purposes as the skin is high in fibre and full of flavour. However, do remove any bits that have become tough or woody.
