I went home to visit my family in Thailand in September this year. It’s always an astonishing moment for me to visit my motherland, particularly this time as I spent many days at my hometown of Kaset Sombun, Chaiyaphum.
Please let me share some of this special trip with you.
Passionfruit jelly, a super easy dessert and perfect for summer! For anyone who lives somewhere where it is not summer you can save it for when the time comes. This dish isn’t in any way a traditional Thai dish, but I wish I had tried it when I was growing up! Happy cooking and enjoy the video.

Chicken with Diane sauce. This recipe, cooked with love, delivers perfectly tender chicken breasts with a delicious sauce that you will remember for weeks.
To me, a highlight of the dish is that it isn’t too heavy. I find it a lovely dish for spring, with some winter flavours but without the accompanying hearty vegetables.
Ingredients
2 free range chicken breasts, skin on
Salt & Pepper
15 g butter
1 tbsp olive oil
1 shallots
1 garlic clove, chopped
1/4 cup chicken stock
1/4 cup cream
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1/2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
Chopped parsley
