Fried Chicken Knuckles
This is a classic Thai snack. As always with Thai cooking we use everything, nothing goes to waste. The “knuckles” of a chicken make a delicious and crunchy snack, packed full of flavour.
Myanmar Style Tea Leaf Salad
When I first tried this simple salad I was completely hooked by it’s spicy and sour taste. It is not something I teach at my Thai cooking class and it’s actually not something easy to find on any Thai menu. So how come it features here you might ask?
Pork Rib Soup Chinese Style
My Chinese style pork rib soup or Kraduug Muu Tun Yaa Gin as we call it here in Thailand is a dish I remember well from my childhood. It’s one of the many Thai dishes that has immigrated over from China.
Chilli Dipping Sauce with Crispy Dried Shrimp
Nam prik is a popular spicy chilli sauce normally eaten with an assortment of raw Thai vegetables, fried fish and even sometimes a cha-om omelette.
Mango Smoothie
This mango smoothie recipe does not use syrup. I used normal natural yoghurt but you can use low fat yoghurt if you wish.
Noodles with Pork in Gravy
Noodles with pork in gravy or simply Rad Naa as we call this dish in Thai is a Chinese style noodle dish. Rather than the usual Thai way of cooking noodles, this dish is served in a thick gravy style sauce.
Simple Pork Prep
I use pork a lot when teaching at my Thai cooking class in Khao Lak, especially in stir-fries. My pork prep will make the pork softer and even more tasty.
Thai Sweet Basil Olive Oil
To make a tasty olive oil, I infused Thai sweet basil flowers in olive oil for a month and now I have lovely, fragrant Thai holy basil olive oil.
Steamed Egg with Shrimp
Steamed egg was one of my favourite Thai dishes when I was very young. It’s so quick and easy and the soft texture of the cooked eggs makes it a firm favourite with mothers cooking for their children.
Pork and Cucumber Soup
Tom Jued Tang Kwa Yad Sai or pork and cucumber soup is a Chinese style clear soup. It uses simple ingredients that should be readily available at your local supermarket.
