Charmaine Solomon has written a wonderful book for all those interested in the flavours and tastes of Thai cuisine. Charmaine, now a long time resident of Sydney which boasts thousands of Thai restaurants, de-mystifies many of the staples of Thai cuisine. She easily conveys how to make a green curry paste from scratch, how to get the perfect textured fish cake and how to make a wonderful pepper and coriander marinade for chicken.

The only downside to the paperback version of this book compared to the hardback version is the lack of colour photos. I have tried many of the recipes and found her writing style easy to follow and her instructions concise and clear. Charmaine also adds cultural and historical notes to round out the full picture of this great cuisine. I have had the pleasure of attending a Thai cooking class conducted by Charmaine and her husband Rueben. The book is filled with the same infectious love for cooking Asian food as her class was.

Usually ships in 1-2 business days.
