Looking for something bold, bright, and packed with flavor? Let me introduce you to Moo Manao, a spicy, sour Thai pork salad. This dish brings together juicy slices of pork with a chili-lime dressing that hits all the right notes: salty, sour, spicy, and just a little sweet. It’s quick to make, super satisfying, and perfect for anyone looking to shake up their salad game with some serious Thai flavor.

This is a salty and spicy chilli sauce to add to anything! I like to dip steamed shrimp in this sauce.

Anything Som Tum is exactly what it sounds like: a choose-your-own-adventure Thai salad inspired by the iconic green papaya version, but made with whatever crunchy veg you’ve got on hand. I like to think of it as a spirit more than a strict recipe. It’s spicy, funky, sweet, sour, and totally forgiving. Traditionally, Som Tum is made with shredded green papaya, but I’ve made versions with everything from cabbage and cucumbers to apples and carrots, and it always hits. It's also traditionally made in a large clay mortar and pestle, but since I don't have one, I'm sharing my method to achieving that 'bruised' effect you'd normally experience in a typical papaya salad. Once you get the hang of the dressing, you can pretty much Som Tum anything.

It's a popular flavor of Southeast Asia, especially in Thailand. It works great on salad, seafood, every kind of meat or vegetables, and super easy to make. ◠‿◠ ♫♫♫

There's so many ways to make Braised Pork Belly, but if you like it sweet, salty, and rich then I recommend making it the Vietnamese way also known as Thit Kho.It's normally eaten over plain rice because of how rich/fatty the pork belly is, but I love eating it with lettuce and brown rice to balance the fattiness.If you find pork belly too fatty, you can make it with pork shoulder or any meat of your choice.#porkbelly #thitkho #vietnamesefood #braisedporkbelly #vietnamesecuisine

A little bit of spicy, tangy, salty and sweet. Perfectly balanced with aromatic herbs.

Simple delicious Spicy Thai Basil Chicken

This sauce is great with any fried fish. This Usually uses only cilantro, but I find that using culantro (ngò tàu) & Vietnamese corriander (rau răm), gives it more depth of flavor. Experiment for yourself and see what other meat/seafood it pairs well with for you!

This is a sweet and spicy dish that rewards with crispy chunks of chicken thigh to put on rice.
