I’ve been dabbling with Thai cooking since settling down in Chiang Mai, Thailand — but I wanted to do more. I now find myself with an apartment equipped with a kitchen, albeit a small one, with just a two grill stove top. The idea for this series came from a simple realization: I could learn how to cook Thai food, just by buying local ingredients and recreating my favorite dishes at home. So I started making a list. It was supposed to be 10 dishes. Then I stretched it to 30. By the time it hit 50, I knew that it was way more than I could ever share on this blog. Seriously, I know people like seeing some cool Thai food, but 50 recipes? I had to find somewhere to write about this.
So I’ve decided to create this series on Facebook. I’ll be posting one picture of each dish plus a few notes and the recipe. FB handles image galleries pretty well, so if you want to follow along, the pics are going to look great.
How to follow the series: Watch my facebook page for updates. Everything starts on November 1st, 2011. (Note: the series will not be on almostfearless.com, only on the FB).
