PAT KAI KAP MET MAMUANG HIMAPHAN

(Stir fry Chicken with cashew nut)

I decided to start a new section in my Blog and its about Thai cooking. I am no expert and often have to go back to the books to read line by line and sometimes in between the lines too . But there are a few dishes I have tried at home and I was told they had turned out well. So I decided to put it on here so that I can pick it up from where ever I am as I travel. Here is the first of them. And Oh!! Thai food is yummmmmmmy… I love it.

One Onion thinly sliced

Spring Onion - Half cup cut into small pieces

Naam Pla ( Thai Fish sauce) -1 Half Table spoons

Soya Sauce -1 Table Spoon

Preparation time: 45 mins (with protective glasses on as I slice the Onion or 60 mins)
