I made sour curry paste and a sour orange curry, pawpaw salad (sum tom), steamed fish in banana leaves (hor mok), pork fried in curry paste with green beens (pad prik khing), chicken sate and hot and sour prawn soup (tom yum).
My friend made red curry paste and fish in red curry, thai beef salad, chiang mai noodles, some awfully sweet banana-coconut something in bananaleaf (I don't have a sweet tooth at all), fish cakes and chicken with basil leaves.
OK couple more pictures:
ingredients for tom yum and end result
It's a very tasty soup and quite easy to make.
Boil water, add galangal, kaffir lime leaves and bruised lemongrass. Add crushed chili, coarsely chopped shallot, chrushed garlic, tomato,mushroom and lime juice. Also add something that to me tasted like sambal badjak but milder, they called it chili jam. Add prawns. Only simmer for another minute or so, then season with fish sauce and chopped spring onions.
There are lots of recipes on the net as well.
I went to this course: http://www.chiangmai1.com/restaurants/classichomecooking.shtml
And I couldn't resist posting this picture (taken on Koh Samui):
Think I am gonna buy myself a lamp shop :)
Oh, and Kaneo, I travelled with an old friend of mine from the Netherlands. We met up at Bangkok airport.
