A Taste of Asia

Nic and I did a Thai cooking course here in Chiang Mai. It took a lot of convincing on Nic's part to get me to strap on a pinnafore and play chef, however; the experience was well worth it. The chef was quite a character and really got us into the whole thing. We went to the market to buy all the good fresh, even down to having the fish killed and gutted in front of us.

It was great. We made Green Curry, Yellow Curry, Penang Curry, Basil and Chilli Stir Fry and Lime Fish. And the best thing is we got to eat the results of our work. Yum-o. Actually, perhaps not having to do the dishes was the best thing? I wonder how Nic is going to handle doing dishes for two back in NZ? Heh.









This is Nic getting up close and personal with Freddy the fish who moments earlier was alive and well.
