Step by Step: The Making of a Delicious Thai Banquet

One of the great things we did on our little holiday was go to a Thai cooking class. Lots of fun and we learned lots of new things and then had the delight of eating our 4 wonderful curry creations. Below you'll see some of the process required to prepare and present our delish dishes, starring Masterchef JVI!
A most attentive student!

Kirsty learns a new skill....peeling and deveining prawns in one deft move!

Adding to the mortar and pestle cacophony...noisy stuff!

Hmmmmmm Mmmmmm...red curry paste smells great! 
So it should...it took a while to make:)

More hands-on work by the aspiring Masterchef.

Bubble bubble toil & trouble! But what a delicious aroma!

Plating up....

One of our favourite dishes...Steamed Red Curry of Prawns, Fish & Pumpkin...
on a bed of basil. So delicious! 

Jon's ready to eat. We do have a picture of Kirsty digging in...but it's not fit for viewing!
Needless to say, the end result of our labour's was worth it. Such a yummy lunch. 
And plenty of inspiration to have a go at home.
