As Thai myself, I can firmly say that, even without crab meat, that red-chilli-paste egg custard goes well with literally E-VE-RY-THING! That egg custard paired with any fried proteins, be it chicken, pork, beef, you name it!

@TamHuynh-xj6jn Год назад

I used to stir-fry that custard with fish balls and it was amazing

@charliechuggerz Год назад

really? i might try it with some minced beef

@yoogleza 11 месяцев назад

@@charliechuggerz Please do! Personally, I would recommend sliced steak or beef patty if you go with beef, but anything should do fine. Do add some veggies in as well, as this dish is quite rich in itself.

This is my favourite Thai dish. I may be the only one in this world who thinks this doesn’t look ugly. On the contrary, it is the most beautiful dish on the dining table 😊

@orcasrising Год назад

For those who can't really find fresh crabs where they live, you can use shrimps, squid, or any white fish fillets instead and they'll be just as yum. For fish fillets, coat them in light batter and fry them up before throwing them in the curry gravy otherwise they will break apart while you're tossing them around in the pan

This dish is by far the best thai dish ever. I am obsessed I order it every time I can. I look for it on every Thai menu. Sometimes here in Aus you can find the custard paired with fried soft shell crab..I put this custard with literally everything. Chicken, beef, prawns, even scallops. I am beyond obsessed and Thai is my favourite food so that is saying something!!! Thank you Pai I have been waiting years for you to make this 😭🤣🙏🏻❤️🎉

@zanthoxylum260 Год назад

Yes, finally! Totally second your "must try" sentiment, you have to eat it when you're in Thailand! Soft shell crab pad pong garee absolutely blew my mind when I first visited Thailand, right on my first night when I was invited to a local restaurant by a friend's family. Had never before eaten anything like it. Its eggy texture and nam prik pao sweetness combined with curry powder aroma were weird at first, "tastebuds couldn't compute". Still, I couldn't stop gobbling it up with rice because it was just so darn tasty. It doesn't even feature the fresh herbs galore used in other Thai dishes; just simple ingredients apart from the crab. Yet, it's such a uniquely tasty explosion of perfectly mingled flavours and texture. By now, I see it as a great example of how Thai cuisine can jumble a multitude of ingredients together to create a dish that is impressively more than the sum of its parts. I still get swoony whenever I think back to that first time eating it. It's that good. And unfortunately, outside of Thailand I've never found a Thai restaurant that serves the proper eggy-creamy version of this. They may even have a pad pong garee on the menu, but it's usually just a stir-fry with curry powder but without eggs. (Also mind-blowing: yam thua plu, the winged bean salad with shrimp and roasted coconut! And of course, many more ;) )

I made this dish with the whole crab and it's very very tasty cause the flavours from the shells enhanced it..just stir fry the crab first with the onions and garlic, then add the curry powder before adding in the egg custard... garnish with just celery/spring onions will make the dish look beautiful. This is finger licking good.

@davidlevine1697 Год назад

this is my Thai wife's best dish. back in the day when we were living in Chonburi, on the coast, and we would meet the boats on the beach when they brought in the fresh crabs for the day. nothing beats this dish with super fresh seafood. We have also made this with large shrimps (leaving the skins and heads on for extra flavor). Easier for most to eat and also a bit less expensive and accessible for those not near a good fish market.

We had this dish in a small restaurant in Bangkok (Lek Seafood) and kept on ordering it each time we went there. Unfortunately, we had no idea what it was called so couldn't find a recipe UNTIL you just posted it! We printed it and took it to our favourite Thai restaurant in Victoria (BC) to show it to our waitress. She said -- our chef can cook that for you, TODAY! So, that's what my husband ordered and it looked very much like your dish and he loved it. Our waitress also got the brand of the chili paste he uses for us and where we can buy it. So, now I have the paste and am planning to cook it soon. I really enjoy watching your RU-vid presentations and bought Sabai as soon as it came available. I have cooked a few recipes from it very successfully. Khàawp-khun khâ.
