Chiang Mai Thai Cooking Experience

You will be picked up from your hotel in Chiang Mai for your cooking class. Get ready to learn how to cook tasty Thai food in a beautiful home garden setting. Start with a trip to the local market to get to know the ingredients, and shop for whatever you need for your dishes.

You can choose to make 6 dishes from 6 different categories:
Appetizer: som tam (papaya salad) or spring rolls.
Curry Paste: green, red or massaman.
Curry: green curry, panang curry, khao soi (Chiang Mai noodles) or massaman curry.
Soup: tom yam kung (hot and sour shrimp soup), tom kha gai (chicken in coconut milk soup) or Thai noodle soup.
Stir Fry: pad thai (fried noodles Thai style) or stir-fried cashew nuts with chicken.
Extra Dishes: sticky rice with mango or banana in coconut milk.

In the home garden, you will start cooking one dish at a time. 1 wok for 1 person, so you really get a feeling for the techniques. Thai food is based on a balance between the different flavours; spicy, sour, sweet, salty, and bitter. It goes beyond a single dish but looks like a balance of a full meal of various dishes. You will understand this philosophy during your afternoon and, once you have cooked your way through, you can take a seat to test all the lovely dishes you have prepared yourself.

You will return to your hotel with a cookbook in hand, and a very full stomach!

Meals: Up to six dishes you'll cook yourself!
