Gaeng Som Pae Sa

[thailandfaq]

I love Gaeng Som Pae Sa Pla Chon (snake head fish in sour curry soup).. but dont seem to see many other farang into it or know of it.

Any others into this recipe? I love the Pak Grached vegetable too (water Mimosa). This is always what i eat if going to a Suan Aharn (garden restaurant) - the pot simmers and you can add more vegetables as you eat along the way. The crispy white meat on the snake head fish is so juicy .This isnt an easy dish to make at home so best when eaten in restaurant - or at least remember to buy one of these fish shaped hotpots to take home with you so you can make it in authentic style.

I share your passion for this. Absolutely my favorite thing to eat in Thailand. Wouldn't dare try it at home. There's only a few places in Patong that do it and the best is Kaap Gluay. Going there tonight!
