Thai food has been my favourite food since I first tasted a green curry in a good Thai restaurant about 6 years ago. Having visited Thailand nearly two years ago I looked high and low for an authentic thai cookbook with a "real" green curry recipe. I must have tried at least 6 different recipes for green curry but none of them tasted quite like the real curry's you can find in good restaurants and in Thailand. I finally found this book and was thrilled as the recipes are genuine Thai recipe's and not anglasised versions of Thai themes.
It is broken up into different regions of Thailand and gives you an idea of how the Thai's eat. Also it uses the ingredients you would find in Thailand which you can get from specialist shops here in the UK but you can substitute ingredients you are unable to find.
You will find everything you could expect to see in a Thai restaurant in this book including the traditional red and green curries, pad thai, spring rolls, broccoli in oyster sauce, all the different fried prawn starters, different rice dishes as well as some extras like chicken with cashew nuts, curried shrimp etc. Overall a fantastic cookbook and my bible when it comes to Thai food.
