Popular Post Brewster67 Posted June 28, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 28, 2020 Having lived in Thailand for 10 years, and as much as I love the food here, every now and then I yearn for some of my native dishes. I am from the UK and love the traditional food. The last thing I cooked here was 3 days ago when i made homemade beef stew and crusty dumplings. I usually make around 5KG and freeze it in portions to eat over a few weeks. Before that I made a giant pork pie and a few dozen jam tarts to have with my mug of tea in the early evening. What are your favourite home country delights that you enjoy to make and what was the last thing you cooked? I know this isn't totally Thailand related, but I am asking as a matter of interest for the community of foreigners living in Thailand. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirocco Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 yesterday I cooked mutton with garlic and beans. I also made lemon meringue pie. Yes, yes, sheep are expensive, but you have to know how to have fun from time to time. Ah! Also, cheese, but he, I did not cook. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Denim Posted June 28, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 28, 2020 Liver and bacon in onion gravy with peas and mashed potato. Even the wife thought it very tasty. Her preferred mid day meal is an English breakfast ?? Has Thai breakfast with her mother at 7.30 but gets hungry around for falang food around 12.30. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First, asking people what they are cooking and at the same time telling that you are making amounts of 5 kg for freezing is like killing a good dish. As soon as you freeze the food and re-heat it or if it´s just pre-cooked it will loose it´s natural flavors and freshness. However, the last dish I cooked was yesterday evening for my wife and 8 year old daughter. It was scallop ceviche with freshly baked pan riche and a colorful lime/mint sallad. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quiet often I do a big cook up to fill the freezer for week day meals due to no desire to cook after a long hard day at work, they are just as tasty as the day the y went into the freezer !! 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilotman Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 I cook western food a couple of times a week. Usually a meat, chicken or fish, oven baked, or fish, with vegetables, roast or baked potato. maybe a cheese sauce. Sometimes a chicken casserole, or Italian food. It's hardly difficult and absolutely no need to miss any food from "home". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tifino Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 yeah the big difference that is a farang made bulk meal; - portioning straight into the freezer for surviving the next few days/weeks the non falang way, being to; leave it all open on the table for the next day - or everyone forced to eat the whole multimeal feast, there and then, inn one foul swoop!

lust Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 My Thai wife and our son both love macaroni and cheese. I will add some chopped bacon and sausage into the mix. Comfort food. I also made grilled-cheese sandwiches using a sharp cheddar cheese, some sliced ham and some pickles with a bowl of Campbell’s tomato soup. Very nice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooked Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 Probably bread or pork pies. Since I changed my diet to Keto, no more wheat flour, and feeling a lot better, off blood pressure and cholesterol meds and down to a healthy weight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
