Thai Cooking by Jennifer Brennan

Paperback

Thai cooking blends Chinese, Indian and Arabic influences into a unique cuisine. This is the first comprehensive and authentic book on Thai cooking and it brings the delicious secrets of Thai cuisine within the grasp of every cook. 

A typical Thai dinner consists of an assortment of curry dishes, soups, salads, vegetables and sauces served simultaneously around a central bowl of plain boiled rice. Recipes range from Quail Egg Flowers, Prawns Caught in a Net and Bamboo Shoot and Pork Soup, to Sweet and Sour Beef and Whole Fried Fish with Ginger Sauce. The final chapters are dedicated to desserts and sweets– everything from Thai Fried Bananas to Mangoes and Sticky Rice.
