Yam khai dao
Yam Khai Dao (pronunciation: yam kai dao) is a popular Thai dish, often served as a side dish or a snack. The name directly translates to "fried egg salad" in English.
Etymology
The term "Yam Khai Dao" is derived from the Thai language, where "Yam" means to mix, "Khai" means egg, and "Dao" means star. This is in reference to the star-like appearance of the fried egg when cooked in the traditional Thai style.
Ingredients
The primary ingredient of Yam Khai Dao is a fried egg, which is typically cooked until the edges are crispy. The salad also includes a variety of other ingredients such as fish sauce, lime juice, chili peppers, sugar, and fresh herbs like coriander and mints.
Preparation
The preparation of Yam Khai Dao involves frying the egg in a large amount of hot oil until the edges become crispy. The egg is then drained and cut into bite-sized pieces. The dressing is made by combining fish sauce, lime juice, sugar, and chopped chili peppers. This is then poured over the egg and the salad is garnished with fresh herbs.
Related Dishes
Yam Khai Dao is often served with other Thai dishes such as Som Tam (green papaya salad) and sticky rice. It can also be paired with Khao Man Kai (chicken rice) or Pad Thai (stir-fried rice noodles).
