Thai Hang Lay Curry with Aubergine Salad and Chilli Relish
| Description | Our recipe developer Alice visited the city of Chiang Mai in the north of Thailand where she picked up some hot tips from cooking teacher Vannee - who also showed her how to prepare this hang lay curry. Traditionally made with pork belly, it’s also known as Burmese curry due to the addition of Burmese curry powder. It’s tangy from the use of tamarind, with pickled garlic, ginger and peanuts added in at the end for both flavour and texture. On the side there’s a zingy aubergine salad, a simple vegetable stir fry and a fiery chilli and tomato relish. |

It arrived well packed
Made a lower calorie option of this yesterday evening and it was exceptionally tasty. Air fried instead of deep frying the aubergine, substituted chicken thighs for the pork belly and used sweetener instead of sugar and wholemeal noodles instead of rice. Outstanding and a definite keeper. Sorry no pics as it vanished took quickly.
Sounds delicious! It's great to hear you enjoyed this terrific Thai curry - we may have to try the aubergines in the air fryer ourselves!
A delicious dinner prepared by my husband! So happy you deliver to Germany
He did a great job - that all looks delicious! We're loving your pretty patterned bowls, too. Happy spicing!
Aubergine salad was an absolute winner - the dog kept sniffing around trying to get a bit!
What a lovely photo, James - a gorgeous, vibrant spread of food and a very very cute dog!
The best curry yet!! Great flavours, good amount of spice. Will definitely be making this again. My butcher also gave me the rind from the pork belly so we had an added extra of crackling, was beautiful.
Thanks for your great review, Stacey - we're so pleased to hear how much you loved this curry, and that crispy pork crackling looks absolutely delectable!
Very very good curry. The sides worked well, enjoyed the chilli relish especially. Next time will leave the aubergine out as it’s not my favourite. For a first time curry chef like myself I’d say it’s a good challenge!
It sounds like you did a great job with this, Jack - we hope you enjoyed the challenge! You'll be a pro in no time!
This is a meal with a mixture of different flavours from both the curry and the aubergine salad. I would definately recommend this dish and make it a gain.
It's great to hear you enjoyed this fantastic combination of flavours- happy spicing!
Easy to follow recipe, interesting mix of flavours with the aubergine salad the star of the show, simply can’t imagine how hot the relish would have been with all the birds eye chillies, we used 2 plus some of the loose seeds and it was perfect for our delicate mouths!
Ooh we love the pops of colour- delicious and nutritious!
Deee - lish!
Looks like a tangy and terrific feast to us!
Very interesting flavours that complement each other. The pork was particularly tasty. Will definitely cook this dish again!
Glad you enjoyed this, looking like a proud chef! Cheers!
Fantastic well spiced curry with sides I'd never thought of! Tasted absolutely fantastic and make a perfect lunchtime leftover for work! Definitely need to be more risky with the birds eye chilli next time and fire it up
YUM- glad you really enjoyed this! Let us know how you get on with extra chilli next time!
Great flavours, all, but perhaps a bit of an eclectic mix of dishes all together? Curry was beautiful and rich. Method was more frantic and intense than others I've tried, but worth it. Timings are pretty accurate. Time spent on the prep and organising is a must! A great experience - thank you!
Thanks for your feedback Andy! Everything looks absolutely delicious, a real mix of zingy and fiery flavours!
Lovely!! Noone in our house likes aubergine but we all loved the aubergine salad and the pork was a lovely change from our usual. The chilli paste meant we could all have our curry the way we liked it. Great
It's fantastic to hear everyone enjoyed this zingy, aubergine salad and it's always great to customise your meal exactly to your own taste preferences- thanks for sharing and happy spicing!
An amazing curry - fresh, spicy and totally distinctive. Unlike anything you could order from a takeaway. We're 3 months into our 6 month subscription and have loved every dish so far - such incredible spices!
Brilliant! It's great to hear that you are really enjoying your subscription and the meal looks incredible- looking like a proud chef!
Delicious. Hang lay was outstanding. Shame we can't award a 4.5/5.
Glad you enjoyed this- the veg looks so lovely and vibrant!
Lovely curry - the tangy pickled ginger and garlic really brings it to life. Aubergine salad was really tasty too!
Everything looks fantastic, glad you enjoyed this! The zingy aubergine salad is a favourite of ours at Spicery HQ too!
The best one of all those we've had. Swapped aubergine for mushrooms for personal preference, loved all the dishes. Full of taste and texture and simple to prepare.
Really glad you enjoyed this, everything looks so vibrant and fresh!
Mouthwateringly tender pork curry, deep fried Aubergine salad, clearly the greatest way to cook aubergine, who would have guessed? Zingy chilli sauce cuts nicely through the mild curry and adds a good bit of heat. I would have just put slightly less fish sauce in the salad dressing next time, switch a little for soy. Really good.
YUM deep fried aubergine is always a favourite of ours at Spicery HQ! Everything looks great and we love the beautiful blue crockery- happy spicing!
