Best Thai Recipes for Fall

This Thai noodle salad is accented with fall-colors: cooked shrimp, fresh ripe mango, and red chili for a delightfully fresh combination. The dressing is a homemade Thai sweet chili sauce that easily stirs together in minutes. Bright and very flavorful, plus lower in fat than traditional pasta salads. ENJOY!

This Thai Shrimp Coconut Curry features the bright colors of autumn - yellow, red, and orange. The curry sauce recipe is easy to make - just stir together a few basic ingredients, or blend them up in a food processor, chopper, or blender. You'll love this simple, yet gourmet Thai dish!

This easy chicken curry celebrates the bright colors of the season. Makes a hearty dinner, with delicious leftovers that will take you through the week. Best of all, this Thai yellow curry is easy to put together, and because it is baked in your oven (like a casserole), you'll be able to get on with other things while your kitchen fills with the wonderfully warm aroma Thai cooking. ENJOY!

This Orange Chicken Stir Fry recipe is beautiful, healthy, and delicious, and it features lots of fresh vegetables which are so plentiful during harvest season. Simply combine the stir-fry sauce ingredients together, cut up your chicken and vegetables, then quickly fry everything up for the freshest possible taste.

This salmon recipe is easy to make and works equally well with both fillets and steaks. Salmon is not a common fish in Thailand, but its robust flavors pair beautifully with Thai flavors. This recipe starts with a basic Thai sauce to which fresh orange juice is added as well as coconut milk. Served with orange slices and coriander, this salmon recipe turns into an easy gourmet meal.

Eating fish becomes more important in the fall as the days grow shorter (especially cold-water fish, which provides that missing vitamin D we would normally get from the sun). Try this classic steamed fish recipe combining lemongrass, galangal (or ginger), and fresh coriander for a melt-in-your-mouth taste experience. Be sure to use fresh fish for best results.

This easy corn soup recipe is soothing and nourishing, as well as elegant to serve. A close relative of Chinese creamed corn soup, this Thai version features crab instead of chicken. Using canned corn makes this corn soup quick and easy to make, and any type of prepared crab meat can be used - fresh, frozen, or canned. This Thai-style Corn Soup is great for everyday eating, but can just as easily be served as an elegant appetizer at a dinner party or other special occasion. ENJOY!

With all of the fresh veggies available in the fall, this authentic Vegetarian Pad Thai recipe is just perfect for those times when you crave noodles. This Pad Thai recipe offers adequate protein in the form of eggs (vegans can omit this ingredient) and nuts. And because it's made with rice noodles, Pad Thai is a healthy gluten free recipe. Try it - you'll love it!

If you've put your BBQ away for the season, not to worry - this delicious Thai chicken is just as delicious roasted in your oven (I actually preferred it baked to grilled). It turns out golden-hued and bursting with plenty of Thai flavor. ENJOY!

This special dessert recipe is beautiful to serve, plus easy to make and healthy too! It starts with slices of fresh star fruit (instructions on how to buy and prepare star fruit are included). Star fruit is similar in texture and taste to apples, and while it can be eaten fresh, in this recipe the star fruit slices are lightly cooked and then given a tropical-tasting mango-orange sauce. Topped with a drizzle of coconut milk and a sprinkling of pomegranate seeds (optional), this gorgeous, fruit-fresh dessert is the perfect celebration of a bountiful fall harvest.
