One of my husbands favourite cook books is Thai Vegetarian Cooking by Vantcharin Bhumichitr. This was bought for him as he loved Thailand and was struggling to find many good veggi resturants in this country(England). It has some very nice dishes in it that he has cooked for me and he has even managed to avoid stuff that is too hot. The thing he tends to do most is the Fried Rice with Turmeric but that maybe becuase he’s obsessed with that particular spice – an unfortunate state of affairs when white cloth napkins are involved!
It gives you lots of background infornmation and has nice large pictures that get you salivating. However the dishes all tend to be to my mind – complecated and so I would not recomend this for a cooking beginner. But if your interested in diversifying your diet or your cooking this book is fantastic. We have done several dinner parties out of it too.
