1. New Basil Pork (or Chicken) Stir-Fry - authentic Thai Street food!
If you're a fan of authentic Thai street food, you must try this wonderful Thai Basil Pork Stir Fry. It's classic Thai at its tastiest. Usually it is made with ground pork, but nearly any type of pork or chicken can be used. Now is a great time to make this dish while you can easily get fresh Thai basil (or sweet basil) and fresh red chilies. Give this one a try!
2. New Tangy Thai Orange Salmon
This salmon recipe is easy to make and works equally well with both fillets and steaks. Served with orange slices and fresh coriander, this salmon recipe turns into a gourmet meal that can be whipped up any night of the week. (Note that this recipe can also be made with halibut.) ENJOY!
3. New Stir-Fried Lemon-Lime Shrimp!
This Thai shrimp recipe features both lemon and lime flavors for the ultimate shrimp dish. And unlike most shrimp recipes, it doesn't contain a lot of cream or butter. Coconut milk is used instead, which means this dish is lighter, but still rich in flavor. Simply zings with taste - definitely give this one a try!
4. Asian-style Tapioca Pudding
This Asian-style tapioca pudding recipe is SO delicious and very easy to make (cooks in just 15 minutes!). In Thailand as well as throughout Southeast Asia, tapioca is a common dessert, but it is much different than our Western-style tapioca and SO much yummier (trust me on this one!). It's definitely one of my family's favorite desserts.
5. New Thai Grilled Chicken Recipe
This grilled chicken is made with a very flavorful (and healthy!) Thai marinade, and can either be grilled or baked in your oven (it's equally delicious both ways).
6. New Thai Noodle Salad with Shrimp & Fresh Mango!
This Thai noodle salad is accented with cooked shrimp and pieces fresh ripe mango for a delightfully fresh combination. The dressing is a homemade Thai sweet chili sauce that easily stirs together in minutes. Makes a summer-bright dish that's great for a dinner salad, or serve it as a delicious side dish for any ocassion.
7. Vegetarian Thai Pumpkin Curry (with Citrus Notes) - Vegan/Gluten-free
This vegetarian curry offers an array of bright colors to celebrate summer's end - orange, yellow, and red - infused with citrus accents. You'll love the delicious taste of this curry, as well as its healthy combination of vegetables. One of the most popular curry recipes on this site!
8. New Thai Larb Chicken Salad (Classic Thai!)
Larb Chicken salad is classic Thai, and so good, I personally find it addictive. Makes a terrific dinner salad on a warm summer night - just pair with a glass of cold white wine for a true Thai treat!
9. Thai Corn Fritters (Vegetarian/Gluten-free)
This scrumptious recipe for corn fritters is a real treat, and it's also vegetarian plus gluten free! - made with fresh-off-the-cob OR frozen corn, tofu, and a variety of vegetables. The corn fritter batter takes only minutes to stir together, then just drop spoonfuls into hot oil and fry for a few minutes. An easy treat that is terrific as an appetizer, snack, or finger food for a party.
