FREE Thai Food E-Books! No purchase required…
Sawasdee Ka!
I just finished writing a new page here at the blog… in the upper left hand side you can see it - “FREE Thai Food E-Books!”.
We decided to just give away both of our e-books for free since we’ll be able to have more people see them and enjoy them!
If you don’t know what an e-book is, it’s simply a Word file with photos and nice formatting converted into an Adobe PDF format that you can read on your computer, PDA, phone, or maybe even your watch. It makes the files easy to read on electronic readers too - you may have heard about Microsoft’s and Amazon’s new readers. They are e-book readers designed specially for reading e-books.
If you want to get both e-books here are the links below…

10 big shrimps (peeled, de-veined, cleaned and cooked)
1/4 cup cut onion
1/4 cup cut sweet peppers (yellow, green and red)

2. When the pan is hot, add minced garlic and fry until it has aromatic smell.
3. Put sweet peppers, tomatoes, onion and then stir for 2 minutes.
4. After that, add shrimps, pineapple, oyster sauce, fish sauce, sugar, ketchup and thai pepper powder.
5. Add water if the sauce gets too thick.
6. The taste should be sweet, sour and a salty.
7. If you like the partridge eggs, add it in the pan and mix well before you turn off the fire.
8. Serve with jasmine rice.
Pad Priao Wan (Sour and Sweet Stir-Fry) is another colorful Thai food recipe for the children and everyone that loves sweet and sour food. It is also good for any of you who is on diet program. Just skip the shrimps and add less oil in the food. Broccoli and carrot can be added if you love more vegetables. 
I love to put a lot of fresh tomatoes in my Pad Priao Wan because it helps provide me a nice, fresh, radiant and smooth skin!!
In Thai restaurants you may find this food but they would cook it with crispy fried fish.
