— Learn how to cook Thai food the real way with a real Thai. I was born and raised in Thailand, and I lived there for 20 years. I have always been obsessed with food and can't think of a life without it, so I went and got a nutrition degree in Canada, cooked in a few professional kitchens, and then off to culinary school in San Francisco. I am passionate about my culture, particularly its food, and I want to share it with the world. That's why I'm here. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do making it. Kob kun ka (thank you)!

  • How long can you keep the marinade for? I mean if you make too much marinade. Can you store it and use it at a different date?

  • @SuperSquarEyes If you put it in the fridge it'll last you about a week. However, if you want to make a lot ahead of time on purpose, omit the herbs and just mix the sauces and sugar together. That'll last you indefinitely, and then you can add the herbs as you need to use it!

  • What's a substitute for cilantro root?  Cilantro stem? Coriander seeds?

  • @oops999 Cilantro stems is your best choice. Coriander seeds have a competely different flavor profile.

  • Great shows. It's the next best think to seeing you in person. :)

    Gonna try this recipe soon.

    Sorry about your electric stove.

  • Fareed! Thanks for watching :)

  • coooooooool.. ur pro~

  • Thank you for sharing, you are a very good chef and teacher!

  • I'm telling you, you belong on the foodnetwork! We need an Asian girl on there!!

  • My sister tried making sticky rice but the rice keeps coming out undercooked. She soaks it over night and then steams it in some "traditional" woven basket thing. She doesn't wash it like I've seen you do. What could she be doing wrong? Also, I'm gonna let her know about that dipping sauce. She just uses soy sauce and cilantro. Its....interesting....Thanks for the videos and any advice I can pass on to her.
