Thai House - Authentic Thai cuisine

Thai cuisine is renowned for its bold and vibrant flavours, balancing sweet, salty, sour, and spicy elements in every dish. Central to Thai food is the use of fresh herbs and spices, such as lemongrass, cilantro, garlic, galangal, and kaffir lime leaves, often combined with chili for heat. Common ingredients include rice (particularly jasmine rice), noodles, fish sauce, coconut milk, and tamarind. Thai dishes also emphasize balance in textures and presentation, often featuring crunchy, creamy, and chewy elements. Dishes can range from stir-fries like pad Thai and pad see ew, to soups like tom yum (a spicy and sour shrimp soup) and curries such as green curry or red curry, made with coconut milk and a variety of vegetables, meats, or tofu. Street food is a significant part of Thai culinary culture, with popular items like som tum (papaya salad), satay (grilled skewered meat with peanut sauce), and mango sticky rice for dessert.
