Traditional cooking from Thailand, Burma, Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines make great use of coconut cream, peanuts, pork and beef -- ingredients which are conventionally out of the question for those following a fat-free lifestyle.
Now, thanks to the specially adapted low-fat versions of these delicious classics developed for this book, mouth-watering recipes such as chicken satay with peanut sauce, special chow mein and fried rice with beef have been reclaimed for the healthy eater.
Over 150 classic recipes from Thailand and South-east Asia have been carefully adapted to create low-fat, no-fat versions -- healthy eating with all the taste and no loss of flavour. Food from this region is characteristically fresh, beautifully presented and made to be shared. Here you will find snacks and appetisers, soups, poultry dishes, meat dishes, fish and shellfish dishes, vegetable main dishes, rice dishes, noodle dishes, side dishes and accompaniments, salads and desserts.
