00:00After a workout like that, you will definitely feel very hungry.
00:30Go Chang hosts a number of restaurants for every taste and budget.
00:42In the evenings, the streets transform into one huge open-air restaurant.
00:52Here you can have whatever you want—vegetables, fruits, fresh juices, fish, or real meat.
01:03The food is safe to eat and very tasty, too.
01:06It doesn't really matter which place you choose to dine in.
01:14We've learned of a cute little place where you can make dinner yourself, guided by an
01:18experienced chef, of course.
01:21To be sure, this self-cooked meal is more than just delicious.
01:24Thai cuisine is very difficult and very different.
01:28It's sour, spicy, salty, anything.
01:32A lot of sugar and stuff.
01:35And it's very hard to cook by yourself, just take a recipe and cook.
01:40So I asked my friend Bonnie.
01:41She's professional.
01:42She was cooking so many years, and now she's going to teach me how to cook what kind of dishes.
01:48Today we're going to cook papaya salad, and then the chicken and coconut meal, or the Thai
01:54name we call tom kha gai.
01:56And the last one is mango sticky rice, the one that is very popular for dessert.
02:00Yeah.
02:01Let's do it.
02:02The magic of Thai cuisine starts with the ingredients.
02:05This is our ingredient that we're going to cook today.
02:09Okay, this is a lime and a cafe lime.
02:11For the cafe lime fruit, not many people to see them because of the cafe lime fruit, we
02:16use only the skin to make a flare in the paste.
02:19Mmm.
02:20Yes.
02:21This is the carrot.
02:22This one?
02:23This one?
02:24This one.
02:25Baby corn.
02:26This one.
02:27Ta-da!
02:28What is this?
02:29Do you know them?
02:30Oh, it's like a...
02:31Long bean.
02:32Very long.
02:33Yes.
02:34Huge.
02:35I've never seen it.
02:36This one is a Thai ginger, or we call galangal.
02:39Okay, let's see.
02:41This one is spring onion.
02:43The chives is another thing.
02:45This one, this is a sweet basilic.
02:48What do you call basilic?
02:49Ah, basilic.
02:50Same.
02:51Yeah.
02:52This is a Thai basilic or sweet basilic.
02:53You can put it in the trash.
02:54This is a tofu.
02:55Mm-hmm.
02:56And this one, this is the aubergine.
02:57You know, aubergine.
02:58Uh...
02:59I don't know.
03:00I've heard.
03:01I've heard about this.
03:02Looks like very small tomatoes.
03:03Super small tomatoes.
03:04Okay, this is lemon fries.
03:05Yeah, lemon fries.
03:06Okay.
03:07I think you know almost everything.
03:08This is coriander that we use for the leaf and the root.
03:09Do you like coriander?
03:10Mmm, not too much.
03:11But it's fine.
03:12The coriander is like a very intense.
03:13Yeah, intense smell.
03:14Like a...
03:15If you smell coriander, it seems like you smell the Thai cuisine.
03:16Yeah.
03:17We'll use all of these to make a salad, soup, and a dessert.
03:19Thais usually cook several meals for dinner.
03:20In order to make a salad, soup, and a dessert.
03:24Oh, it's papaya.
03:25Yes, papaya.
03:26Oh, it's papaya.
03:27Yeah, it's papaya for the salad.
03:28Or salad.
03:29For salad.
03:30For salad.
03:31We'll use all of these to make a salad, soup, and a dessert.
03:36Thais usually cook several meals for dinner.
03:39In order to accommodate the owner of the place,
03:41we're going to cook all three.
03:43Let's start with the salad.
03:45Let's see here.
03:46It looks like the cucumber.
03:48This is papaya.
03:50Yes, papaya for the salad.
03:53You can do this one like here.
03:55Take the pillow and do it like this.
04:01Cut the carrot, tomatoes, beans, and then the lime.
04:13For the sauce, take some garlic and one chili pepper.
04:17And then chili.
04:20Just the smallest.
04:22You can find.
04:24Maybe half.
04:26How much do you usually put?
04:29Me?
04:30Yeah.
04:31A handful.
04:32Four.
04:33A handful.
04:34A handful?
04:35Around 10, 11, 15 or something like that.
04:38I'm also crying.
04:39I'm sweating.
04:40But I like it that way.
04:41Now you smash it up.
04:43In every other restaurant, a papaya salad like this one we are making
04:47is usually so spicy you'd probably be rendered to tears.
04:51Yet here, it is you who actually controls the hotness of your meal.
04:55This is the fish sauce.
04:56The ingredient.
04:57Fish sauce.
04:58This is the palm sugar.
04:59This one is the tamarind paste.
05:00Full spoon of the fish sauce.
05:01A teaspoon.
05:02Full.
05:03Full.
05:04Like that.
05:05One teaspoon of the tamarind paste.
05:06Do you like sweet?
05:07Yes.
05:08And now you scoop the sugar in.
05:09One spoon too.
05:10This is a palm sugar.
05:11Yes.
05:12That the taste is like honey but it's not the honey.
05:13Brain creep.
05:14Brain creep.
05:15Imagination like you walking in the garden.
05:16Like a jogging.
05:17Like a jogging.
05:18The taste should be spicy.
05:22Sour.
05:23So good.
05:24Yeah.
05:25And it is really good.
05:26So good.
05:27Now we have one teaspoon of the tamarind paste.
05:30One teaspoon of the tamarind paste.
05:31Do you like sweet?
05:32Yes.
05:33Yes.
05:34And now you scoop the sugar in.
05:35One spoon too.
05:36This is palm sugar.
05:38The taste is like honey but it's not the honey.
05:40Brain creep.
05:41Imagine you walking in the garden like a jogging.
05:44The taste should be spicy, sour, salty, and sweet.
05:48Everything.
05:49Everything, you got it?
05:50Yeah.
05:51Now, mix everything together.
05:54You could, of course, just take all of the ingredients and throw them into a bowl, but
05:58don't do that.
05:59There are rules to follow.
06:01Unless you want to have the salad made the wrong way, that is.
06:04Bang, bang, flip.
06:05Bang, bang, flip.
06:06Bang, bang, flip.
06:07Like that.
06:08Yeah.
06:09Good.
06:10Like that.
06:11Any properly cooked Thai meal must be both tasty and pleasing to the eye.
06:18I'm sure you can make presentation of it.
06:21Give me a green.
06:22And yes.
06:23And ta-da.
06:24Enjoy eating.
06:26Bye, Salas.
06:39Mmm.
06:40It's very tasty.
06:41Very easy to cook.
06:42But the flavor is so rich.
06:43Everything.
06:44Spicy, sour, salty.
06:45Just, wow.
06:46Very nice.
06:47The first time when I was trying papaya salad three years ago, I was crying so hard.
06:53Probably they put like 10 chili pepper in it, but here it's perfect for me.
06:54Just enough.
06:55There is no one better than Thai's when it comes to mixing ingredients that one wouldn't mix
07:00in a regular kitchen.
07:01Right now, we're about to learn how to make Tom Kai guy, the famous Thai coconut chicken soup.
07:07The next one is like chicken and coconut new or Tom Kai guy.
07:08Yeah.
07:09Tom Kai.
07:10Tom Kai.
07:11Tom Kai.
07:12Tom Kai.
07:13Tom Kai.
07:14Tom Kai.
07:15Tom Kai.
07:16Tom Kai.
07:17Tom Kai.
07:18Tom Kai.
07:19Tom Kai.
07:20Tom Kai.
07:21Tom Kai.
07:22Tom Kai.
07:23Tom Kai.
07:24Tom Kai.
07:25Tom Kai.
07:26Tom Kai.
07:27Tom Kai.
07:28Tom Kai.
07:29Tom Kai.
07:30Tom Kai.
07:31Tom Kai.
07:32Tom Kai.
07:33Not Kai.
07:34Kai.
07:35It means egg.
07:36Tom Kai.
07:37Kai.
07:38It means chicken.
07:39Yes.
07:40Okay, so right now, this is a lemongrass.
07:42Yeah.
07:43Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang.
07:47Good.
07:48That's good.
07:49One, two, and three.
07:53And this is a galangal.
07:55Galangal or Thai ginger.
07:56So you have to cut them like here, like thin slice it like here.
08:00Mm-hmm.
08:01Like this.
08:02Cut the onion and mushrooms.
08:08This one is the oyster mushroom that you can use with shiitake, champignon, or straw mushroom
08:14instead.
08:15Yeah.
08:16Next, the lime and fresh herbs are added.
08:19This one is the ingredient for the chicken and coconut milk.
08:23The first one is the aromatic flavor.
08:25First group, flavor group.
08:27We have the galangal, lemonglass, café, lime, leaf, and chili.
08:31And the second group is the vegetable, happily onion and mushroom.
08:35You can use the mushroom that you have in your country.
08:38Mm-hmm.
08:39And the third group is a lime for seasoning.
08:41The last one is coriander and spring onion for garnishing.
08:44One, two, three, four.
08:45Wow.
08:46Yeah.
08:47That's so much everything.
08:48Like a combination of the products that can bring you some different tastes in the Thai
08:55cuisine.
08:56Awesome.
08:57Okay, perfect.
08:59The chopped vegetables and lime are then placed into the coconut milk.
09:05So is the chicken broth, the filet, and...
09:09This one.
09:10We were seasoning them with this one.
09:13Fish sauce and sugar almost everywhere in Thai cuisine today.
09:18Add salt, the juice of one lime, and some fresh herbs.
09:23Then the soup is ready.
09:26Wow.
09:32Hot, hot.
09:34Mmm.
09:35I love coconut milk and the soup with it.
09:39It's really tasty.
09:40Yeah.
09:41We have just prepared a papaya salad and tom kagai.
09:47Coming next is a rice and mango dessert.
09:51Thai sticky rice with mango is easily the king of Thai desserts.
09:57That's when the magic kicks in again.
10:04This one is a butterfly pea.
10:06It's not a pea pea from the butterfly.
10:09It's a butterfly pea that is like the herbs.
10:12It's a flower.
10:13Yeah.
10:14So you can use this one in a pea too.
10:17And you can use a color.
10:18This one to make the color for the braid or something.
10:21Like the blue braid.
10:22As it makes, it just gives color.
10:24Color.
10:25Yeah.
10:26But don't put too much because it's going to look like a poison.
10:34Wow, it's so blue actually.
10:36Almost purple.
10:41Coconut milk, salt, sugar, a bit of food coloring, and previously cooked sticky rice.
10:48That's all.
10:49Simple as making a cake.
10:55It's like a flag.
10:58When it's cooled down, it's not so hard.
11:01That's why I like it.
11:02This is mung bean.
11:03Yay!
11:04Yay!
11:05Oh, it's not good.
11:06Oh, I'm sorry, sorry, sorry.
11:08Okay.
11:09Now, enjoy eating.
11:11Mango and blue sticky rice.
11:14It's my first blue sticky rice in my life.
11:16Okay, let's try.
11:17As you see, the cooking was very fast and looks very easy, but here's so many special ingredients
11:31for flavor, for smell, so I would not manage it by myself.
11:36The beanie helped me to do this, and now I'm going to try how it tastes.
11:49Mmm.
11:50The sticky rice can be better.
11:51It's sweet.
11:52It's mango.
11:53My favorite fruit.
11:54I love it.
11:55On this tasty, salty, spicy, sticky, and sweet note, we're going to say goodbye to Coaching.
