A sample of Bangkok’s most popular street food offerings...

The streets of Bangkok are a sensory overload, and they’re packed with some of the tastiest food in the world! Fragrant herbs such as kaffir lime leaves and lemongrass combine with dried Indian spices including turmeric, coriander and cumin and finally ferocious chillies to complete the heady mix of flavours.

To begin we’ve got an iconic Thai dish - fish cakes served with a sweet chilli sauce and a tangy salad. For the main event the more unusual khao mok gai, a Thai-Muslim biryani which translates as ‘rice bury chicken’ served with a tangy mint nam prik on the side.

Tasty and not too difficult to make. Loved the Khoa Mok Gai - definitely worth doing it with jasmine rice!
