Vegetarian Chips in Pai

[bradeearl]

Hi All. Just returned from Pai, and missing Thailand already. Whilst I was there I was in a restaurant and was served some wonderful "Chips", that I was told were vegetarian and made from a bean. Tow Hu??? Can anybody help me find out what these are and whether I can buy them in the uk

Many thanks.

Don't know, but Tow Hu might be their way of saying tofu, which comes from a bean.

Vegetarian chips ? Don't kill the potato, it has feelings too.

Tofu

Dried and fried

So, potato chips are non-vegetarian?

And what sort of pie?

For those that may be confused, "Chips" to a Brit are "French fries" to others, as "Chips" to Americans are "Crisps" to Brits.

Both made from potatoes (a vegetable last time I looked). Of course, the best English chips are those deep fried in a chippy, in beef dripping.

Many thanks for the sensible replies,yes your all right a potato is a vegetable, I just wasn't making myself clear.

Many thanks Sea Stallion, exactly what im looking for

I wasn't confused, but I am now.

Or can be baked for a healthier version.

I suggest the OP searches for "tofu chips" or "tofu crisps". Plenty of recipes out there on the web.
