Time came for me to further my education abroad. Living overseas did not stop me from cooking traditional Thai dishes. It did actually push me to push ‘more’ of them and to challenge myself with a new recreation. While hand-picked ingredients made my dishes flavorful and fresh, homemade curry paste made them taste like home. Nothing could ever make me feel prouder than seeing my Massaman curry on the table after hours of not just making it, but perfecting it. The smell of cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, star anise, cumin, and other spices were enhanced by the flavors from lemongrass, coconut cream, chili peppers, cilantro and other countless ingredients. The meat, cooked at the right temperature, was tender and juicy. And once the curry was accompanied by a plate of rice, there I had a heaven on my very own table. Since then, Massaman has become my favorite dish to cook without any doubt.
