My Bangkok Trip: Cooking Class @ Baipai
Friends have arranged a cooking class at Baipai this time. This is my first time to learn cooking at Bangkok. We have picked the afternoon section and this last for around 4 hrs. Depends on number of people, they can give a better deal if you go with a big group. With a group of 9 people, we had paid around baht2000 for this class per head. Total 4 dishes will be taught: papaya salad, deep fried spring roll, chicken in red curry and stir fried beef in chilli sauce.
First of all, we learnt how to make a red chili paste. Never know it's being grounded intensive with a mix of 2 types of chili. Depends on the chili level, you can put a little or more chili into the grounder.
After awhile, the paste will be ready for use.
The chili has been contributing to the sauce of this red curry dish!
Teacher is trying to teach us how to make the "substance" for putting inside the spring roll.
The sauce to go with spring rolls...we always just go get a ready made one from supermarket. Actually it's very easy to make...can be ready in 15mins!!!
Spring roll is being sealed with special "glue", ie: egg yoke!!!
Student trying to make 4 rolls by themselves (and they can get to eat them afterward :P)
Deep frying in process.
Ready!!! with some decor!!! Sorry mine looked a bit messy coz the shell was really cripsy!!!
Lastly we had made the papaya salad. I always wonder how they shred the papaya into such tiny snappy pieces! Now I know the special skill! :D
