Thai Street Food with David Thompson - Season 1 Episode 4 Communities
10.00 48 minutes Bangkok is a city of villages that are drawn together by their love of food and eating. Mae Nam Chao Phraya is the most important river in Thailand. Dotted along its banks and canals are various villages and communities - an aggregation of people, history, cuisines and cultures. From Indian, Vietnamese, Malay, Indonesian, Chinese to Muslim, Bangkok is the mixing bowl of Asia. And the food one can find in each community reflects the various ethnic origins - vibrant, varying and delectable. David Thompson guides us through cooking Kartortnam sot - crunchy rice with spicy pork, a colourful and spicy dish. And the classic of chicken and rice pilaf (Biryani) cooked over charcoal.
