This Thai Cookbook is solely based on my views and experiences in Thai cookery. The purpose of my writing is trying to give a practical information to the readers as much as possible. The recipes provided here are presented in the way that most Thai people do when it comes to preparing their meals in general. The guideline in this cookbook is kind of per say as a home cooking style, of which quite adjustable on the ingredients, the method of cooking and the proportion is actually flexible. By then, I hope that my readers would consider it is possible to make pleasing Thai dishes out of the book by themselves in their own kitchens.

This book is written by a Thai lady who uses the pen name "Average Chef." I have to say that, while the title "Average Chef" gives me hope that I can prepare these dishes, it is clear she is well above average in her cooking skills. She tells us from the beginning: "The recipes provided here are presented in the way that most Thai people do when it comes to preparing their meals in general." She also assures the reader that the home cooking style is quite adjustable on the ingredients, the method of cooking and the proportion.Right off the bat, I'm going to tell you that there are some editing issues. Regardless, you can easily get the meaning if you can overlook writing that has an occasional rough patch. One editing issue I found was that the Pork Satay has a subheading referring to "Marinated Chicken Ingredients." Of course, I knew it was marinated pork ingredients.
With regard to Thai flavors, the author tells us that at the Thai table, aromatic steamed rice is served individually. A set variety of dishes is placed in the middle, inviting everyone to partake. This is one of the reasons why Thai dishes are quite strong in taste. I guess you could say that the rice is a blank canvas for the Thai flavors (my wording).
One thing I liked about this author is that she warns you of the potential for high sodium in Thai food. Fish sauce is the common ingredient in Thai dishes. The author tells us that, "It creates a wonderful saltiness that plain salt can't replace." The author stresses that you should be alert and careful before adding too much of unnecessary condiments. In light of this, the author tells you, "In this cookbook I have used quite low proportion of sodium compared to average usage in general Thai dishes to ensure that recipes are kind of healthy as the way it should be."
If you are interested in preparing Thai food, you are probably aware that some ingredients might be considered exotic to the non-Thai person. While canned and frozen substitutions are referred to, it is also mentioned that fresh is best. One example (with regard to pad thai), "If salted radish and Chinese chives were too hard to find, just exclude them. It may be not "so original" recipe, but, trust me, still taste delicious." On the other hand, she tells us that her pad thai recipe, "Palm sugar and tamarind concentrate can't be skipped."
Many of recipes have a good amount of chile heat in them, so keep this in mind (you might want to adjust hot ingredients to taste).
Some measures are listed in metric form. The author includes a conversion table at the end of the book.
Overall, I enjoyed this book. It's going to be one of my Asian-style cooking reference books. The recipes are varied and clearly authentic. Yes, there's a few hiccups in the writing, but it was easy for me to look past that for the nuggets of golden cooking techniques.

No easy conversions for two or more people. No simple substitutions for indicated exotic ingredients. I ended up deleting it.
This is just what I have been looking for! The recipes look similar to my favorite Thai restaurant. I can't wait to make some of these recipes.
I did not like it because the translation to English is very poor, and there was not too many choices in the recipes.
I thought this was an easy to follow book. I did have to find some substitutions for ingredients. It has made for some adventerous eating and cooking.
not a big fan of Thai cooking
Can't really complain when I got it for free. This book includes some awesome sounding Thai recipes, though some of the ingredients seem difficult to come by. Could easily substitute for more available items, though.
I REALLY ENJOYED READING ALL THE COMMENTS ON THE RECIPES. hOWEVER MANY OF THE RECIPES CALLED FOR INGREDIENTS THAT ARE RATHER HARD TO OBTAIN. MAYBE IF I LIVED IN THE SF BAY AREA I COULD GET ALL THE INGREDIANTS, BUT LIVING IN A SMALL RURAL AREA, ITJUST WASN'T POSSIBLE. sTILL FUN AND i'LL KEEP IT UNTIL WE GET TO VISIT UP IN SF.
