Hi everyone, let’s start a cooking thread for posting the pictures of the dishes we like to cook. And maybe add some advice or information about the dish. So we can share information and help each other :) I will start: I like to cook Gai pad med mamuang (chicken cashew). I add 15 chilis and make the chicken pieces a little bigger, soak first. Sometimes I can’t get the texture of the red peppers right. But nice!

Pick your winner and explain why. Wrong answers only.

With red cooked pork and a lump of palm sugar, these dry-style noodles definitely skew to the sweeter side of hot-and-sour. Absolutely addictive. Any good bets for finding these in Bangkok or other major cities? This photo was taken at a shop in the Si Satchanalai District, about an hour north of Sukhothai Historical Park. (I have been to สมทรงโภชนาวัดสังเวช in Bangkok, a bit up from Phra Athit pier, and it was decent but insanely slow.)

Me Myself and I have been locked away in a room all day on the computers and now time for several beers. This weeks winner for me is Chang Beer

Apologies for my laziness but I know many people have beer prices at their fingertips. I am looking for the price for a box of 24 x 330 Tiger Light and also 24 x 330 San Miguel ZERO. MAKRO or local beer wholesalers - just an indication.

pa-tong-ko are long golden-brown deep-fried strips of dough made from wheat flour. If you haven't seen them before, here's some: (image credit: https://cookpad.com/th/recipes/7987852-ปาทองโก-สตรไมใสแอมโมเนย ) They are very popular and really only for sale in the early mornings. For twenty Baht you can have a really big bag full, freshly cooked. If you ever thought of making your own, there's a Thai youtube video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXxK0fflpGw Until I started looking for an image of one, I hadn't realised there are a lot of other countries producing a very similar food: China, Vietnam, Cambodia, Singapore, Malaysia, Ind…

Following on from this thread about Bacon, my lovely wife made some. Absolutely delicious! (compressed the pictures, but it didn't work)

A visit to Thailand is never complete without tasting its delicious food. Thai food is known to be delicious and incorporates the five primary flavours: sour, spicy, salty, sweet, and bitter.

Isan, the northeastern region of Thailand, is possibly the most underrated region in the country in terms of tourism. However, its delicious cuisine dominates the Thai culinary scene. You can find most of the region’s dishes across the country, whether in restaurants or street food stalls. Bordering with Laos, Isan food has strong Laotian influences. The dishes consist of many herbs and spices, so they tend to be hot and flavourful. Below, we’ve compiled 10 delicious Isan food you have to try while you’re in Thailand. 1.

HI All, can anyone tell me where i can buy a leg of lamb or a joint of beef in the nakhon ratchasima area. Thanks

Are they available here, coz I ain't never seen any? I want to make proper apple pie, but using the 'eaters' they turn to mush so quickly & are too sweet The pies in Villa are ok, not special though, too much sugar.

Yum? https://www.nydailynews.com/news/world/ny-thailand-pizza-company-deep-fried-cannabis-20211126-tlgcttm75be4rgkzsfj273vqwm-story.html

And what about Rhubarb, is that available here? Unlikely, I know.... Anyone tried growing it? Up here in the frozen north - Nongbualamphu, where the winters are really quite cold, I wondered if it would grow. But then, not having any crowns, I'll never know...

I enjoy cooking, one of my all time favorite leisure activities. Today's attempt at excellence is a Indian style, seafood Curry. Prawns, salmon, squid, scallops, in a Korma type source. I add peas, baby carrots and half cream to give it a little more 'depth' of flavor, served with rice or pasta. Total cost of ingredient's was 1,200 Baht, but it will serve 4, or last 4/5 days for one. My mouth is watering already. 😆

Now normally anyone would be more than happy to have a full bottle of water. As a real ale drinker from the UK I always expect a full pint of beer - excluding the head. Don’t snigger boy. That's an imperial pint btw (568ml), not a US pint (473ml). The bottles of water we buy are absolutely full to the top – right up to the plastic screw-top. When I hold the bottle to open the screw top, there’s always some water that spills out. Even though I keep the bottle on a flat surface to avoid tipping it or squeezing it unnecessarily, as it’s a soft plastic bottle. Which means that really I should get up from my desk and go into the kitchen or the bathroom to open it, …

Anyone have any recommendations for the best restaurants in asok? Or a review site like yelp

Just look at this disg... sorry, typo, delicious food ( as they call it) 🤣 No, really, let's not. But if everyone in the UK was it would save the NHS 30,000,000,000! Where do some of these extremists get their figures from - TAT? I was a vegetarian for a while, around 10 years ago, but that was largely due to wanting to lose weight, which I did. Wasn't too difficult, took two weeks to adjust. Don't like Tofu though. In the end, I succumbed to a bacon sandwich... https://metro.co.uk/2022/01/06/veganuary-nhs-could-save-30000000000-if-everyone-went-vegan-15840675/
