Last week Mrs. Arbhorn Manasvanich, the new Ambassador to Thailand, held a cooking workshop on Thai cuisine.
Our menu included delectable dishes such Spicy Thai beef salad (Yum Nuea), Spicy and sour prawn soup (Tom Yum Kung), Green Chicken Curry (Kaeng Khiao Wan Kai), Banana in coconut milk (Kluay Buat Chee).
Mrs. Arbhorn with her demeanor that was no different than of a professional chef, directed the class. This reflected on the food as well and the dinner that took place after the workshop was full of delightful conversations along side this delicious meal created by our guests and the press.
We wanted to share the two easily appliable recipes with you, so that you can create them at home with easy to find ingredients, and taste Thailand right in your kitchen!
