Chicken Massaman Curry
The reason why I don’t cook Thai food a lot is its so cheap. And it requires a lot of ingredients. So if I’m planning a meal for 2, it would be more cost effective to have a take away than prepare it myself. But one day it crossed my mind, what if we will leave Thailand? Would I regret not learning how to cook the Thai dishes that I like? Most probably. And, that is why I will be doing more Thai dishes in the coming weeks.
This next dish is called Massaman Curry, a southern Thai favorite and I suspect has Malay origin. Nam phrik kaeng massaman or massaman curry paste is usually prepared with chicken or beef (but hardly pork because its a Muslim dish). This dish was also mentioned in a poem written by King Rama II because it was his favorite. Here’s how to prepare this delicious dish that is fit for a king..
