 Quick and Easy is Appropriate Jun 11, 2005
By RP
I have owned this book (the hardcover version) for many years now. I use it mostly to refresh my brain on some of the quicker Thai dishes I like to make.
The pictures are helpful (although the ingredients do not always match up) and the timing advice is an absolute necessity. I would say that most of the dishes come out tasting pretty authentic however some are much milder than desired.
I definitely recommend this book to anyone who is starting out. I just bought it for a friend of mine who is learning to cook Thai. It is still the first one I go to because of its ease when I am looking for a dish that I haven't tried before or need a refresher on.

 best cookbook ever ! Apr 21, 2005
By Moshmomma
I was hopeful for a good Thai cookbook and the item description was very helpful and why I chose the book, but to my surprise, this book is better than described. It has great pictures of how the food should look; exactly what the ingredients looks like that you are suppose to buy and gives simple cooking instructions. There is a wide variety of food to cook, from soups to deserts, I only wish there were more recipes. THIS IS A MUST HAVE for people who love Thai and have no idea how to cook Thai!

Excellent introduction to Thai cooking Jan 19, 1998
Finally, a Thai cookbook that lives up to its subtitle- quick and easy- and also provides delicious recipes for many dishes found at my favorite restaraunts. Beautiful pictures accompany simple recipes with easily obtained ingredients. The recipes deliver on their initial promise in that the dishes are excellent in presentation and taste. Illustrations demostrate key steps in preparing each dish. A must for anyone interested in cooking Thai food.

You gotta get this cookbook! Apr 24, 2005
By S. SPEIGHT
"SP8girl"
I'm extremely new to Thai food when a Thai friend of mine introduced me to it. I was hooked. I came back from the visit and haven't stopped cooking it (I got back three weeks ago). Another friend let me borrow this cookbook and I can't tell you how easy these recipes are to follow. The meals turn out like the pictures (if not better) and they taste great! I don't particularly care for stir fries but the vegetable and chicken recipe was very good!
If you're wanting something different in your kitchen, try some of these recipes. They're not too spicy so even the kids can enjoy.

Simple, Easy, and Basic Dec 05, 2000
By Jennifer Floyd
This book provides a person with all the basics needed for those popular Thai dishes such as Pad Thai and the curry based dishes. The book also provides pictures of the ingredients to be used for each recipe, which is extremely helpful when you're not sure if you're using the right ingredients. The directions are simple to follow. I'm Thai, and I found this book very helpful in learning how to prepare foods I miss from home.
