How to Cook Khao Soi Talay (Chiang Mai Spicy Noodle Soup)



This video is very special because it's not only the first Thai dish I've ever featured, it's in fact the first non - Malaysian dish on my YouTube channel. A fellow Malaysian at Shangri-La Chiang Mai described Khao Soi as like a Chiang Mai laksa. Chef Kamsin teaches me how to prepare this dish, and the ingredients and method were intriguing to say the least. What a sensational dish to start off my Thai culinary journey.

Vietnamese Iced Coffee Recipe (Cà phê sữa đá) | Food Busker



A traditional recipe for an occasional treat, this is Food Busker John Quilter's Vietnamese Iced Coffee, or 'Cà phê sữa đá'. All you need is condensed milk, cafetiere or french press coffee and some ice to chill it down when you serve it. It's refreshing, caffeinated and - due to the condensed milk - more than a little bit naughty! John will also show you how to mix it up with a cardamom twist. Give it a go and make sure you let us know what you think of it.
