Step into Nuch's kitchen in Redland for a private Thai cooking class built entirely around you. Before the day, you choose three dishes you'd love to master - from fiery Tom Yum Goong to rich Penang curry or crispy Golden Bags (Toong Tong) - and Nuch tailors the whole lesson to your tastes and spice level.
Here's how your session unfolds:
  • Arrive to a warm welcome and trays of fresh Thai ingredients laid out and ready, with sauces prepped so you can focus on the fun parts
  • Get hands-on chopping lemongrass, galangal and chillies, and pound fragrant pastes the traditional way
  • Watch Nuch cook each dish step by step, sharing the techniques and secrets behind authentic Thai flavour
  • Fire up the wok or pan and cook your own version, with Nuch guiding you all the way
  • Taste as you go and learn how to balance the four Thai flavours - salty, sweet, sour and spicy
  • Pick up tips on where to buy Thai ingredients in the UK and what to swap if you can't find them
  • Sit down to enjoy some of your creations, then take home enough food for a feast that evening
Popular dishes include Chicken Satay with cucumber relish, Pad Thai, Green Curry, Tom Kha Gai, Stir-Fried Chicken with Holy Basil and Spicy Barbecue Beef Salad.
The three-dish class lasts around three hours. Vegetarian and vegan dishes can be taught, and allergies are catered for - just let Nuch know when you book. It's perfect for couples, birthdays, anniversaries or anyone who's ever wanted to recreate their favourite Thai takeaway at home.
What you'll get
  • Hands-on tuition from Thai chef Nuch in a private class just for you
  • Three authentic Thai dishes of your choice, cooked by you
  • Plenty of tasting as you cook, plus enough food to take home for dinner
  • All ingredients, equipment and an apron provided
  • Tips on where to buy Thai ingredients in the UK and easy swaps, so you can cook the dishes again at home
Knowledge required
None at all. Complete beginners are very welcome, and Nuch tailors the lesson to your experience, whether it's your first time using a wok, a keen home cook wanting to perfect authentic Thai flavours or a fully trained chef.
What to bring
  • Nothing - just an appetite! Everything you need is provided
  • To save on takeaway containers you could bring your own to take all the food home!

FAQ

Can I choose which dishes we cook?
Yes - that's the beauty of a private class. You choose three dishes before your lesson, from favourites like Pad Thai, Green Curry, Chicken Satay, Tom Yum Goong and Golden Bags, and Nuch prepares everything around your choices.
I don't like very spicy food - is that a problem?
Not at all. Nuch adjusts the chilli to suit you, and if one of you loves heat and the other doesn't, she can tailor each person's dish.
Can you cater for vegetarians, vegans or allergies?
Yes. Many Thai dishes can be made vegetarian or vegan, and allergies can be catered for. Just let Nuch know when you book so she can plan your dishes.
See more FAQs   
Is it hands-on or a demonstration?
Fully hands-on. Nuch shows you each dish first, then you prepare and cook your own version with her guidance.
Will I be able to cook these dishes again at home?
That's the aim! Nuch explains where to find Thai ingredients in the UK and what to swap if you can't get something, so you can recreate the dishes in your own kitchen.
Does this make a good gift?
It's one of our most popular gifts for couples, birthdays and anniversaries. Many guests come to us after receiving a class as a present.

Hello, I'm Nuch, and welcome to My Thai Kitchen!
In Thailand, food is at the heart of family life, and I learned by watching, tasting and helping my Mum in our kitchen in Phang Nga long before I could see over the counter. Cooking and eating has been my passion ever since!
To take my cooking further, I completed Intensive Training in Royal Thai Cuisine at the famous Blue Elephant restaurant and cookery school in Phuket. There I learned the refined techniques and beautiful presentation of the dishes once served at the Thai royal court.
In 2013 I moved to the UK and opened My Thai Kitchen, a small cookery school in my own kitchen in Redland, Bristol. I wanted to share the real flavours of Thailand, not the watered-down versions people often find in the UK. Since then, I've welcomed guests from all over Bristol, the South West and South Wales, from complete beginners to keen home cooks.
I love teaching because I love the moment someone tastes a dish they've made themselves and can't believe how good it is. Thai cooking can look complicated, but once you understand how to balance sweet, sour, salty and spicy, it becomes simple and so much fun. Everyone leaves feeling confident to cook it again at home.
My classes are relaxed, friendly and completely hands-on. Group classes have no more than six people, so I can help everyone, and I also teach private lessons for up to six people. It's an ideal gift for birthdays, Christmas and anniversaries. I'm happy to teach vegetarian and vegan dishes and to cater for allergies. My kitchen holds the top Food Hygiene Rating of 5.
I can't wait to cook with you!
