About the event
Join us for an unforgettable culinary experience as we delve into the vibrant world of Thai cuisine, guided by the expertise of Hastings's renowned Thai restaurant legend, chef Wandee. Come solo or bring your friends for our Friday night Fakeaway! Together, we will embark on a journey to create two stunning, authentic dishes that are sure to impress your family and friends.
First on the menu is Som Tam, a spicy green papaya salad that perfectly balances the crunchiness of fresh vegetables with the zing of lime and the heat of chilli. Chef Wandee will guide you through the traditional methods of preparing this dish, emphasising the importance of using fresh, high-quality ingredients to achieve the perfect flavour profile. You will learn how to adjust the spice levels to suit your palate, whether you prefer a mild kick or a volcanic explosion of heat that will leave your taste buds tingling with excitement.
Next, we will dive into the preparation of an all-time favourite: Thai green curry. Under chef Wandee's guidance, you will discover the secrets to crafting a luscious green curry that surpasses anything you might find at your local takeaway. From selecting the right herbs and spices to mastering the art of balancing flavours, you will gain invaluable skills that will elevate your cooking. The use of fresh coconut milk, aromatic green curry paste, a medley of authentic vegetables and proteins will allow you to create a dish that is rich, creamy, and bursting with flavour.
Throughout the session, you will have the opportunity to watch a live demonstration where chef Wandee will share her tips and tricks, ensuring that you grasp the techniques required to recreate these dishes with confidence. After the demonstration, you will pair up with fellow participants to put your newfound knowledge into practice, recreating these amazing dishes under the watchful eye of our expert chefs. They will be on hand to offer guidance, answer any questions, and ensure that you are well-equipped to make your culinary creations shine. With detailed recipe sheets provided, along with all the measured ingredients prepped and ready for you, the process will be seamless and enjoyable. And don’t worry about the clean-up; we will take care of the washing up for you, allowing you to focus entirely on the joy of cooking and learning.
As we wrap up our cooking adventure, we invite you to bring along a special glass of something delightful to complement your meal. Whether it's a refreshing drink or a favourite beverage, sitting down to enjoy the fruits of your labour with fellow foodies will be a highlight of the experience. This is not just about cooking; it’s about creating memories, sharing stories, and enjoying the wonderful flavours of Thailand together. Join us for this culinary journey, and leave with not only delicious dishes but also newfound skills and a deeper appreciation for the art of Thai cooking.
