More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
In Simple Thai Cookery (published in hardback as Foolproof Thai Cookery), Ken Hom demystifies this delicious and popular cuisine. He describes the basic techniques needed to recreate authentic Thai food and demonstrates 40 of the most well-known dishes with step-by-step instructions and photographs to accompany every stage from start to finish.
Ken's recipes appeal to the experienced cook and the novice alike as all are quick and easy to prepare and use readily available ingredients such as lemon grass, ginger and, of course, small Thai chillies. Foolproof instructions will guarantee excellent results every time from healthy 'Spicy noodle salad' or the comforting 'Coconut chicken soup' to sweet and sour 'Pad thai' or hot and spicy 'Green curry prawns'.
The tried-and-tested recipes include appetizing soups and starters, quick and easy fish, meat and vegetarian main courses and a variety of delicious accompaniments.

Every recipe in this book is simple, clean, authentic and delicious. If you like Thai food you will love this book. The instructions are easy to follow and even a novice can whip up a gastronomic delight. If you can get to a Thai supermarket and get thai basil, kaffir lime leaves and eggplants it makes all the difference.

Excellent clear instructions and the list of ingredients isn't horrendous, though lemon grass and kaffir lime leaves aren't easy to find in my local supermarkets. After a trip to Thailand found the results more authenticate than the old Thai-style cookbook I own.

Thai Cooking
Book arrived quickly and as described. It is not as helpful or as interesting as I had hoped, and did not compare well with an earlier purchase which I inadvertantly left abroad. Read more

Easy and delicious
It is the perfect book to make home made Thai food. The ingredients are very easy to find, even in Spain (my location) where there is no much Asian food culture. Read more

Great Thai
Another great book from Ken, easy to follow recipes, using ingrediants that are freely available. Great illustrations, makes your mouth water just reading the book.

Does what it says on the tin...
Apologies for the cliche but it is a lovely simple Thai cookbook and, although the recipes are simple, it's still rather authentic. Read more
