Ken Hom's Simple Thai Cookery

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 will 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'.

With tried-and-tested recipes that include appetizing soups and starters, quick and easy fish, meat and vegetarian main courses and a variety of delicious accompaniments, this is an essential cookbook for anyone who loves Thai food.
