Sawadee Ka! Hello!

Do you love Thai food as much as I do? Yeah!! *virtual high-five*  Here is a round-up featuring 17 super easy Thai recipes that are perfect for even the busiest of weeknights.  These recipes are easier than ordering take-out. Which one will you try first?

EASY GREEN CURRY WITH CHICKEN

This is my version of comfort food. A bowl of delicious green curry over steamed rice. Yumm! One great feature about green curry is that you can add just about any kind of vegetable to it. Whatever is in season, or whatever vegetable you have in your fridge. You’ll be surprised at how easy it is to make.

THAI BASIL PORK STIR-FRY (PAD GA PRAO)

Here’s another delicious recipe from Helen at Scrummy Lane! This is one of my favorite Thai dishes. My favorite part is the fried egg on the top. For most South-East Asian dishes, a fried egg is usually cooked over high heat in a wok with lots of oil. This allows the sides to get crispy. This adds so much texture to the dish. Amazing!
