Lauren Egdahl's Thai Coconut Ceviche
Author: Emily Yeston
After the election, a friend of mine decided to organize a supper club with a very fun group of women where we could hang out and also get politically active – we named it the Nasty Supper Club. At the first dinner, I met Lauren, the head chef of Comparti Catering, as she was coming out of the kitchen with a huge plate of food. It was delicious, the best supper club dinner we’ve had yet. It was great to share a meal with a group of cool women served up by a cool female chef.After filling our bellies, Lauren sat down with us at the table as we talked politics, babies (there are a few pregnant supper club goers), and food. I’m so happy to intro you to Lauren, who shared her ceviche recipe with us – perfectly light and delicious for summer!
