As the last Thai dish for this year, I prepared a vegetarian
Yum Woon Sen (
)
with glass noodles, vegan minced meat and cocktail tomatoes this morning for the New Year’s Eve party in Winterthur. As a substitute for Nam Prik Pao, I used
the mushroom Nam Prik from
Yak Thai.

sweet.

Pad Pak Kwang Tung Moo Grob
Jens2025-12-08
While shopping at the Asian grocery store, I once again grabbed the wrong thing and bought the second cousin
Choi Sam instead of
Chinese broccoli. But this type of mustard greens can also be prepared in the style of Thai
Pad Pak Kanaa Moo Grob together with crispy pork belly. The whole thing could be called “Pad Pak Kwang Tung Moo
Grob” (
).
Big Pork Feast
Jens2025-12-06
This evening we had a spontaneous visit from our old friend Sascha. He had announced himself for dinner and said he would bring some things from food sharing.
The large bag full of groceries he brought threw my original cooking plans overboard, but instead treated us to delicious Thai pork dishes.
During a fun kitchen party, we prepared
Nam Tok Moo (
),
Moo Pad Priau Wan (
) and
Moo Thod Gratiam (
). As an appetizer, we had some
Luk Chin Ping (

Nam Jim Luk Chin (
) that I had prepared this morning.
