Three Cup Chicken is a classic Taiwanese dish made with equal parts soy sauce, rice wine and sesame oil, finished with fragrant basil for a bold, aromatic punch. This Three Cup Chicken recipe focuses on caramelising rock sugar first, searing large chunks of chicken for char, then reducing the sauce until glossy and sticky.

Despite the name, it is not made with three cups of liquid. The “three cups” refer to equal quantities of soy sauce, rice wine and sesame oil. The final flourish of basil transforms the dish into something intensely savoury, slightly sweet and beautifully aromatic.

Pad Thai with Prawns is Thailand’s most iconic street food noodle dish, celebrated for its perfect balance of sweet, sour, salty and savoury flavours. This authentic Pad Thai with Prawns recipe follows a traditional Thai restaurant method, building a tamarind and palm sugar sauce first, then stir frying soaked rice noodles with prawns, tofu, preserved turnip and crunchy beansprouts.

The key to excellent Pad Thai is control. The sauce must be balanced before it hits the wok, the noodles must be soaked rather than boiled, and the vegetables added at the last moment to keep their crunch. Cook quickly, taste at the end and adjust with lime, chilli and peanuts just before eating.

Thai Steamed Fish is a light, fragrant dish where whole fish is gently steamed with lemongrass, galangal and kaffir lime leaves, then finished with a punchy lime and fish sauce dressing. The result is tender, flaky fish infused with fresh herbs and balanced with sweet, sour and salty flavours.

Pad Med Mamuang is a classic Thai stir-fry combining tender marinated chicken, roasted cashew nuts, crisp vegetables and dried chillies in a rich sweet, savoury and tangy sauce.

rice powder for a bold, smoky and tangy flavour.
