    Quick Meals

    Thai cooking is not complicated! If you think cooking Thai food is something that has to be reserved for the weekend, this page is for you. Here are my recipes that are quick, easy, and weeknight friendly. In fact, I have a whole cookbook all about quick and easy Thai recipes that you might want to have handy!

    Not sure where to start? Here are some popular ones to get you started:

    Quick and Easy Red Curry Chicken. A curry sounds like it might take a while to make, but not this one! With a good store bought curry paste, you can have this curry ready in under 30 minutes with minimal chopping required!

    Pad see ew with rice vermicelli. A noodle dish doesn't get much easier than this one, and all the ingredients are easy to find. It has eggs for protein, but you can add meat if you like.

    No-Fry Sweet & Sour Pork. A recipe from my book SABAI, unlike the ultra-sweet, deep-fried takeout, the Thai version of sweet and sour pork is lighter and filled with veggies.
