Delicious and Simple
Every recipe in this book is simple, clean, authentic and delicious. If you like Thai food you will love this book. The instructions are easy to follow and even a novice can whip up a gastronomic delight. If you can get to a Thai supermarket and get thai basil, kaffir lime leaves and eggplants it makes all the difference.

Simple Thai cookery
As it says in the title simple. Recipes are mostly easy and authentic once you have the ingredients.

Simple Thai Cookery
Excellent clear instructions and the list of ingredients isn't horrendous, though lemon grass and kaffir lime leaves aren't easy to find in my local supermarkets. After a trip to Thailand found the results more authenticate than the old Thai-style cookbook I own.
