Imagine the scent of galangal and lemongrass drifting through your kitchen, the sizzle of fresh herbs hitting a hot wok, the satisfaction of serving a meal that transports everyone around your table to the misty mountains of Northern Thailand. Lanna doesn't just teach you recipes — it invites you into a world where cooking is storytelling, where every dish carries centuries of tradition, and where your kitchen becomes a gateway to one of Southeast Asia's most captivating culinary regions.
Chariya Khattiyot, a chef deeply rooted in Lanna heritage, shares the recipes that have shaped her life and her family's table. This isn't a cookbook of shortcuts or approximations. It's a generous, authentic guide to the bold, aromatic, deeply layered flavours of Northern Thailand — from fiery chilli relishes and fragrant curries to delicate herb salads and slow-cooked braises that fill your home with warmth.
What you'll gain from this book:
- Confidence with unfamiliar ingredients — clear guidance on sourcing, prepping, and using galangal, kaffir lime, Thai basil, and more
- Recipes that work in a Kiwi kitchen — thoughtfully adapted without losing authenticity, using ingredients you can find locally or online
- A deeper connection to your cooking — understand the 'why' behind each technique, the cultural significance of each dish, and the stories that make food meaningful
- Impressive, flavour-packed meals — from weeknight stir-fries to show-stopping feasts that'll have your guests asking for the recipe
Whether you're a seasoned cook looking to expand your repertoire or a curious traveller recreating the flavours of a memorable journey, Lanna offers something rare: the chance to cook with real knowledge, real respect, and real results. This is food that rewards attention, celebrates fresh ingredients, and brings people together — exactly the kind of cooking that belongs in a Kiwi home.
Hardcover. Beautifully photographed. A cookbook you'll cook from, not just admire on the shelf.
