Reviews" Simple Thai Food is just what folks need: a simple, easy-to-follow cookbook on a delicious cuisine (and one of my favorites!) that most people aren't used to making at home. With clear, friendly instructions and valuable tips and techniques, Leela unlocks the flavors and seasonings of real Thai cooking--spicy salads, coconut-rich soups, blazing bowls of curry, and the fiery, flavorful condiments that go alongside. Thanks to Leela, I'm excited to create these authentic Thai dishes in my own kitchen!" --David Lebovitz, author of My Paris Kitchen "In this compendium of favorite Thai dishes, Leela has managed to make the recipes accessible and straightforward for a home cook, and to keep them very true to what a modern Thai cook (in Thailand as well as in the West) would recognize as 'authentic.' She does offer substitutions when ingredients are more difficult to find, but they never skew far from what a Thai mom would use in her own kitchen. Leela even sneaks in a few dishes that you might not find in your local Thai restaurant, but will probably become your favorites!" --Andy Ricker, chef/owner of the Pok Pok restaurants and author of Pok Pok "Leela has crafted an authoritative, opinionated, and thoroughly down-to-earth collection of traditional Thai recipes, written especially for cooks who weren't lucky enough to be born in Thailand. All the basics are here, beautifully organized, from curry paste to coconut milk and beyond." --David Tanis, author of One Good Dish " Simple Thai Food is a beautiful snapshot of Leela's effort to stay connected to her Bangkok roots through food, and a wonderfully practical guide for those of us who want to create authentic Thai flavors at home." --James Oseland, editor-in-chief of Saveur and author of Cradle of Flavor "Leela re-creates her beloved taste memories, and then invites us in--offering tools, inspiration, and fresh context in equal measure. You will want these recipes for so many reasons--the craft, joy, deliciousness, backstory--and you will want (and come close to experiencing) Leela herself at your table, imparting her fine intelligence and warmth." --Mollie Katzen, author of The Moosewood Cookbook and The Heart of the Plate, Best Book of 2014, NPR Best Cookbook of 2014, The Globe and Mail Best Cookbooks of 2014-- Serious Eats " Simple Thai Food is just what folks need: a simple, easy-to-follow cookbook on a delicious cuisine (and one of my favorites!) that most people aren't used to making at home.
