hanglay on toast???...hanglay on toast!!!, good god almighty, hanglay on toast!!!...a significant culinary fusion breakthrough an' ye saw it first here on thaivisa...(shall we congratulate ourselves, sweetball? )

I know quite a few Thais who like to eat leftover curry on toast, esp southerners, perhaps because it's a lot quicker than making fresh roti, and Bangkokians, for whom it may just be a western affectation.

The Hung Lay powder you buy in small packets

Love it. The wife has just had some packets sent to her here in Sydney from her sister in CM. We did mange to find Hang Lay sauce in Coles here and the wife added bits and pieces to it and it was pretty good. But now she has the real thing. MMMMMMM

thanks for all the replies...

just have to try and fing hang-lay powder here in London. Think I'll head off to Chinatown to see if I can track it down. Maybe I'll be lucky!
