I introduced this famous Thai food in Street vendor food in my kitchen before. If you have been to Thailand I’m very sure you have seen the food vendors beside the street, with the owner grilling pork skewers on the hot charcoal stove with the smoke and smell drifting 100 meters away. This is one of my preferred street foods, and this is how I cook it in my kitchen.

Fried rice is a dish that is easy to make. Sometimes we call it a fridge cleaning dish as you can include anything that you want to get rid of, such as left over roast meat, ham, prawns, any kind of vegetable etc. Today I made “Kow Pad Nam ข้าวผัดแหนม”, which is a fermented pork fried rice. You can substitute fermented pork with any kind if protein or you can go vegetarian.

As much as I like cooking, going out and experiencing new cuisine is another thing I love to do. When I go to a Japanese restaurant I love to order the dish call agedachi tofu. Agedashi tofu is a traditional Japanese tofu dish, which is deep fried and served with dashi-based sauce.
I thought I might try to make this. I tried to find a recipe for this dish and ended up getting this recipe from the “just one cook book” website, and of course adapted it to my way:-)
I’m happy with the result, which tastes just like what I got from the restaurant. There are not too many ingredients and it is easy to prepare.

This very well known dish is called “Kai Tod Hard Yai” ไก่ทอดหาดใหญ่ by Thai people. The chicken is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and you can taste the marinaded herbs deep inside next to the bone. Very succulent! This dish is often served topped with fried onions. The recipe is shared by my friend “Penny”, who is a real Southern Thai girl. I thanks her for the beautiful and yummy recipe.

The popular Thai menu that is known around the world is called Pad Thai. Most of you will probably know it, by eating it or maybe even cooking it. Pad Mee is slightly different. The term “Pad” in Thai language means stir-fry. “Mee” is a a very thin, round noodle. Many people including me like to pair this dish with Som Tum (Papaya Salad). I thank you to my friend P’ Soraya who has shared this recipe to me. As she came from Southern Thailand this dish will be called “Pad Mee – southern style”.
