Currying flavour

» When it comes to Thai dishes that have staying power and remain favourites from generation to generation, nothing can beat khao kaeng, or curry and rice. It is like a supporting pillar of Thai cuisine that is deeply rooted in the culture. Every region, every ethnic or religious community in Thailand will have its own style of food, and high on the list will always be a curry. There is Thai Yai curry and rice in Mae Hong Son and Muslim-style curry and rice in Satun. Vendors in Chanthaburi in the East will have on display a range of local curries hard to find anyplace else.
