About Cook With Pranee
I was born in Thailand and moved to Australia with my mum and siblings when my mum re-married.
If mum feels homesick, she cooks Thai food and she was homesick often so there was always food.
As a family, we were held together by our mutual love of food and John Hughes movies.
We may have left Thailand but through our cooking, Thailand never left us.

Our mum opened a stall at the local market selling Thai food, then moved to a mobile food truck (before it was cool), then to a food court at the local shopping centre, and finally a restaurant on the main street.
We grew up working in the family business.
While other kids were riding and playing in the street, we were prepping to roll a thousand spring rolls for the weekend market or the food court.
At the time we hated it but now with my family and my love to feed, I look back with gratitude that mum taught us so well and cooking is as natural as breathing.
Some of you might relate to this - when I wake up I don't think "what's on the agenda for my day," I think "what's on the menu?" I hope to share my passion for food and teach you some neat tricks to make life easier too.
