Thai chef Pailin Chongchitnant creates one of the most popular and simple Thai soups—tom ka gai, or coconut chicken soup. Made with lemongrass, mushrooms, chicken stock, fish sauce, galangal, lime leaves, and of course coconut, the soup is full of decadent aromatics. Another popular Thai appetizer is the green papaya salad. Made with young green papaya, cherry tomatoes and a peanut lime dressing, it is a burst of fresh Thai flavours. Lastly, she makes what is probably the most popular Thai dish in the world—pad thai. With juicy shrimp, firm tofu, creamy egg, crunchy bean sprouts, hearty noodles, and a delicious tamarind sauce, it is easy to see why everyone loves it so much. |
