In Thailand we make a delicious sweet tea drink with lemongrass and the leaf of the pandanus tree. The two flavors work very well together to create an authentic Thai flavor and a nice complementary drink to serve with your traditional Thai meal.

Massaman Chicken Curry

Massaman Chicken Curry ►

(Kaeng Matsaman Gai)

This Kaeng Matsaman Gai, or Massaman Chicken Curry, is made with the home prepared curry paste that I made previously. The paste does quite well in the freezer so you will always have some when needed. Watch me as I prepare this delicious chicken curry, flavored with toasted spices, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and coconut.

Tamarind Paste

Tamarind Paste ►

(Makaam Piak)

Tamarind Paste (Makaam Piak) is a soft, thick, and creamy paste made by reconstituting dried tamarind fruit. Once fully dried, tamarind can be kept in a tightly sealed container in your kitchen pantry for a long, long time. If you do a lot of Thai cooking, we highly recommend that you take some home the next time you see it, and keep it on hand so you can make a little fresh paste as you need it.

Sweet Chili Dipping Sauce

Sweet Chili Dipping Sauce ►

(Nam Jim Gai)

Nam Jim or Nam Chim is Thai for Dipping Sauce. It's a generic term that can refer to many different kinds of dipping sauces in Thai cuisine. Most are a combination of spicy, salty, sweet, and sour flavors.

Panang Curry Paste

Panang Curry Paste ►

(Kaeng Panang)

Prik Kaeng Panang is a lovely Thai curry paste that is used to make Panang Curry dishes. You'll know it from its golden orange color and the flavors of mace, cardamom, and toasted seeds. You can always buy a packaged curry, but if you are serious about Thai cooking there is no better way to really learn how to customize the flavor than by starting with all the raw ingredients.
