Thai Pork Red Curry with Bamboo Shoots and Rice Noodles. 🇹🇭

 

Sa Wad Dee Ka 🙏 Hive community ^^

In Thailand, Buddhism is the national religion and 95% of Thai population practice Theravada Buddhism which got influences from India. Besides the Buddhism which we also learn about the spicy seasonings known as the curry spices from India as well.

🇹🇭 Thai curry dishes are usually named after their own colors such as red, green, orange and yellow. So today I’m gonna show you how to prepare a basis daily dish in Thai household and its call Kaeng Phet Moo.
 

 

🇹🇭 Kaeng means any soup dish while Phet is to Spicy and Moo refers to Pork in Thai words.

 

It's a dish of creamy coconut milk with a savory chili paste, sliced of pork collar, blood jelly and bamboo shoots.
 

 

Red curry is typically served with lightly fermented rice noodles (Kha Nohm Jeen) or warm jasmine rice which I'll served with rice noodles today. 😀
 

 

Rice noodles made from rice starch which is thin pearly white noodles and softly tender with a delight texture and so many step of fermented section and require 3-4 days to completed. If you can't find fresh rice noodles which you can buy the them in Asian grocery stores too.😀
 

 

Serving rice noodles with any type of Thai curry will lift up the better taste. The rice noodles will soak up the curry wonderfully. Believed me! 😄
 

 

First, bloom the coconut then add the red chili paste and add the meat and add more coconut milk then bamboo shoots. Finally garnished with Thai basil, kaffir lime leaf and red Thai chili.
This is the commonly instructions for cooked the Thai Red Curry by original Thai people. 😆
