Curry and Rice culture in Thailand
When “curry and rice” is talked about, the mind usually jumps to Indian cuisine, however, many cuisines worldwide have their own take on curry and rice, including Japanese culture. I feel as though I must bring all this to your attention as I myself am a strong advocate for curries (especially the soupy and spicy ones!) But did you know that Thais can eat rice with curries for breakfast, lunch and dinner? That’s how much we love this dish! Khao Gaeng or Khao Rad Gaeng shops (i.e. food stalls) on every street corner will usually have their own spinoff of this dish. “Khao” means rice and “Gaeng” means curry. BUT these street stalls sell more than just the aforementioned dishes...
