I thought of an overall "food found in Thailand has decided to" list, but there are too many and the list of foods you love most would be much easier. So ... The following list provides a short list of my favorite Thai food.
Fried Rice - I love Thai style pork fried rice for breakfast. This is a basic fried rice with tomatoes, onion with Thai spices like lime and chili tossed in the end.
Omelette Thai - Thai omelet is easybut tasty dish of eggs, peppers, onions, pork and the like. The peppers make spicy Thai. The omelet is served with rice.
Som tum or papaya salad - som tum salad is a spicy, consisting primarily of chopped papaya with tomato, chilli, garlic, lemon juice and fish sauce. Thais love this spicy dish, so be careful.
Hoi Tod - Hoi Tod is a mixture of eggs, oysters and clams (o), fried with spices, namely, white pepper. Thisserved on a bed of fresh bean sprouts. This is often done on the road and I like my crisp.
The ma ma moo or salad of ground pork - which is ground pork sautéed with chili, fish sauce, tomato sauce with chopped scallions mixed in before serving. This is often served with noodles instant. This is another hot dish so again be careful.
Wing Bean Salad - This is very similar as above, but the Court tends to be more of a base of tomato and chopped freshwing bean are added and lightly cooked at the end. Very tasty.
Glass noodle salad - glass noodles are made of green bean, are very thin, and absorb the flavor of the accompanying foods very nicely.
Fried grouper - this a simple deep fried sea fish dish. What makes it on my favorite is the condiment they serve with it. The English name is seafood sauce and it is made with finely chopped green chilies and garlic in fish sauce. It is very spicy and delicious.
Common Condiments
Fish sauce - fishy and salty amber colored liquid
Seafood sauce - green, smooth to lumpy, chili and garlic dip
Soy sauce - tangy and salty brown liquid
Red pepper - dried chopped red chili
Vinegar - usually served with fresh chopped chili
Sugar
The longer i live in Thailand the longer this list grows. When visiting Thailand I urge you to try as many things as possible, but remember, most People in the West, can not eat, the level of Thai spices, not without practice.
