Thai Fish Cakes
Thai Fish Cakes are a common street food in Thailand, and are very flavorful compared to most Western fish cake recipes. They aren't battered, which I find allows for more of the fresh taste of the fish, spices, and herbs to come through.

Served them with or without rice, and accompany with Thai sweet chili sauce, chopped cucumber, fresh coriander, and a squeeze of lime juice. Simply delicious!

Lime Chicken Stir-Fry
This chicken stir-fry is my favorite! Like most Thai stir-fry recipes, it cooks up really quickly once you have all the ingredients ready. This recipe features the flavor of lime - both lime juice and lime leaf. Lime leaves are an essential part of this stir-fry, so don't skimp on them. You can buy kaffir lime leaves at most Asian/Chinese food stores - look for them in frozen packets. This chicken stir fry recipe also includes vegetables, so you get everything you need in one dish. ENJOY!

Black Sticky Rice Pudding
Black sticky rice (or black glutinous rice) is a naturally sweet, dark rice (dark purple more than black) that has both fiber and loads of healthy antioxidants. You can cook black sticky rice on your stovetop or in your slow cooker or rice cooker. You'll be amazed at the unique taste of the rice in combination with the coconut milk. Add a dab of coconut cream on top (instead of whipped cream), and you have a healthy dessert that's very delicious and guilt-free!

Shrimp Coconut Curry
This Thai Shrimp Curry Recipe is nothing less than fantastic! The curry sauce recipe is really easy to make - just stir together the ingredients, or blend them up in a food processor, chopper, or blender. The secret ingredient in this curry sauce is a hint of tomato in an otherwise yellow curry. Also contributing to this sumptuous curry are pineapple chunks plus coconut milk and dry toasted coconut for a tropical-tasting Thai shrimp curry you'll want to make again!

Limeade
If you like lemonade, try limeade! In Southeast Asia, limeade is a popular drink due to the fact that limes are so readily available. Limeade makes for a fresh twist on lemonade, and is very refreshing. Its light green color also makes it a beautiful drink to serve. For this recipe I used 5 large limes to 7-8 cups water, which makes for quite a flavorful limeade. Feel free to add more water if you find it too strong. (I find adults like it stronger than kids). ENJOY!

Thai Beef Salad
This beef salad recipe offers a feast of flavors and textures with every bite! My Waterfall Grilled Beef Salad is based on the famous Waterfall Beef dish in Thailand, so-called because of the splashing sound of juices falling onto a hot grill. The beef is lightly grilled or broiled, sliced thinly, and served over a mixture of salad greens along with a special Thai dressing. Serve as the main course for a nutritious and oh-so-delicious dinner that's naturally high in protein and low in carbs.

A Thai version of the classic creme caramel dessert that is super-easy to make, melt-in-your mouth delicious, and healthier than traditional creme caramel!

Coconut Noodles
These Thai Coconut Noodles are aromatic and flavorful, plus easy to prepare! They can be made with shrimp or strips of chicken, or substitute other seafood such as scallops, squid, or slices of filleted fish. Rice noodles are normally used in this dish, but wheat or egg noodles are also delicious. Be sure to see my note on cooking the noodles - you'll want them as close to 'al dente' as possible. ENJOY!

Tropical Coconut-Tapioca Pudding
Here's a dessert recipe that's quick & easy, healthy, gluten-free and vegan, and yummy too! When buying tapioca, I like the 'seed' tapioca found in the baking aisle of most regular supermarkets. You can also buy 'pearl tapioca' at any Asian grocery store. Tapioca comes from the cassava plant and is a root vegetable. It grows in the ground and is nutritious enough that many Southeast-Asians lived on it during WWII when food was scarce. It contains folate (one of the important B vitamins, good for pregnant woman), and also small amounts of healthy fatty acids. Here's to tapioca, and your health!
