🌶️ From Paste to Plate: A Thai Curry Masterclass

A deeper dive into the foundations of Thai cooking, this skills-focused masterclass is perfect for those who want to truly understand how Thai curries are built from the ground up with your chef host Yui Miles.

In this class, you’ll learn how to make four essential Thai curry pastes — red, green, massaman and yellow — all developed from one core base. Yui will guide you through how small adjustments in ingredients, spices and techniques create distinctly different flavours, aromas and heat levels.

You’ll then use these freshly made pastes to cook a selection of simple yet authentic Thai curry dishes, alongside a light stir-fry to share, focusing on:

• Balance of sweet, salty, sour and spicy

• Proper use of authentic herbs and spices

• Building confidence to recreate dishes at home

This class is ideal for cooks who want to move beyond recipes and gain a solid understanding of Thai curry techniques they can apply again and again.

Suitable for: All levels
Style: Hands-on with guided instruction

Yui comes from a strong Thai family where cooking and eating have always been central to family life. From a young age, she helped her parents prepare traditional Thai and Chinese-inspired dishes, sparking her passion for authentic Asian cuisine. Yui showcased her culinary skills as a quarterfinalist on BBC’s MasterChef UK 2019, won the national ICG (Inspiring Culinary Generations) cookery competition in 2020, and triumphed on Channel 4’s ‘Beat the Chef’ with her Thai dishes.

Yui collaborates with the Tourism Authority of Thailand and the Royal Thai Embassy in London, creating recipes and cooking videos to promote Thai cuisine in the UK. She also partners with brands and supermarkets, developing unique Asian recipes for their websites and social media. Since 2019, Yui has been teaching cookery classes known for their relaxed atmosphere, clear instructions, and accessible ingredients. In addition, she works as a private chef, hosting Thai private dining events, supper clubs, and pop-up restaurants. Her debut cookbook, Thai Made Easy, released in September 2023, simplifies the process of cooking flavourful Thai dishes at home with supermarket-friendly ingredient swaps.
