Made a few dishes from this book. Nice blend of flavours. Many of the ingredients are not easily sourced in my area.

Highly recommended if only for the Thai BBQ Chicken and sauce recipe.

Kittivech is the co-founder of beloved L.A. Thai restaurant Chan Dara. I searched the internet for years trying to find the recipe. One day, I flipped through to the third or fourth page of Google search results and found a reference to this book. Bought it used from Amazon that day for like $7. SO WORTH IT!!!

The Thai BBQ chicken is marinated in coconut milk with turmeric, garlic, and other seasonings. It comes off the grill with a wonderful golden color. But the sauce is the best part. You could put this on anything and it would taste delicious.

I just made the chicken last night and my extended family who had never had it absolutely loved it.
