Popular dishes from three regions of Thailand: 1. Central Thailand: tom yam kung, a hot and sour soup made with shrimp, mushrooms, lemon grass, and chilies, known for its bold blend of spicy and tangy flavours; 2. Central Thailand: phad thai, stir-fried rice noodles with eggs, shrimp or tofu, mung bean sprouts, and peanuts, flavored with tamarind sauce and garnished with lime for a tangy kick; 3. Northern Thailand: khao soi kai, a flavourful coconut curry noodle soup with a chicken drumstick, topped with crispy noodles and served with a side of lime, pickled mustard greens, and shallots; 4. Southern Thailand: massaman kai or kaeng massaman kai, a mild yet rich curry with influences from Persian cuisine, made with chicken, potatoes, peanuts, and aromatic spices like cinnamon, star anis, and cardamom.
