Southern Thai Food (แกงใต้) - Stink Beans and Fiery Chilies!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 дек 2013
- There are many regional variations of Thai food, but southern Thai food (แกงใต้) is my absolute favorite. Get southern Thai food in Bangkok here: www.eatingthaifood.com/2011/08...
Thai cuisine is diverse and varies quite drastically by region. Northeastern food from the Isaan region often includes dishes like som tam (green papaya salad), grilled meats, and just about everything is eaten with sticky rice. Bangkok central Thai food is also different, with a number of stir fry dishes and creations. Southern Thai food (แกงใต้) is more similar to Malaysian cuisine, with rich coconut milk based curries, fiery chilies, and lots of turmeric roots. In the south of Thailand, seafood is also quite common, especially shrimp, squid, and fish.
So I'm going to be honest and say that I love every regional variation of Thai food, but southern Thai food has a special place in my heart. First of all, my wife, who is Thai, is from the south of Thailand, in Krabi. So most of the time when I'm in Thailand and eating at home, I am spoiled with southern Thai food. After years of enjoying the dishes, I still just can't get over how pungent and delicious the dishes from the south are. They use such wonderful combinations of fresh ingredients, curry spices, coconut milk, fresh turmeric root, shrimp paste, and fresh vegetables to garnish. Along with a range of different dishes, white steamed rice is always present and goes so well with any meal spread.
If you're not in the south of Thailand, and in Bangkok, my favorite restaurant for southern Thai food (แกงใต้) is Ran Luam Dtai (ร้านรวมใต้). This gem of a Bangkok restaurant serves all the southern classics that you can imagine, all prepared and waiting in the glass cabinet to be order and devoured. Everything looks amazing everytime I go, but the reality is that I had to choose just a few different dishes because I couldn't eat everything. While I really love other southern Thai food dishes like Kua Kling Moo (คั่วกลิ้งหมู) or Nam Prik Kaphi (น้ำพริกกะปิ), this time I chose: Goong Pad Sataw (กุ้งผัดสะตอ), Gaeng Tai Pla (แกงไตปลา), and Ganeg Som (แกงส้ม).
I began this meal with the Ganeg Som (แกงส้ม), a sweet and sour southern Thai dish that is made with fish, a choice of vegetable (in my case I got coconut shoots), and a fiery soup that incuded garlic, chilies, turmeric, and lime juice. Gaeng Tai Pla (แกงไตปลา) is another favorite, a Thai curry made with fish innards. The gravy is dark and super salty, but beautifully flavorful. For the third dish I ordered Goong Pad Sataw (กุ้งผัดสะตอ), one of my favorite dishes in the world. It consists of the incredible tasting stink beans, little green colored beans that have a heavenly flavor and a wonderful crunch. These three dishes along with a couple plates of rice and I was incredibly satisfied! When you visit Thailand, don't miss out trying southern Thai food (แกงใต้).

Southern Thai food and delicious stink beans!
I'm loving the video i love thai food
Leroy young Thank you Leroy!
Mark Wiens i'm a fan of your videos i'm going to Kuala Lumpar next year march
Hi Mark,
I have found your films to be so informative as well as highly enjoyable. I`m travelling in Asia January/February 2014 and your videos have been so inspirational and informative in planning what to do, see and eat. Your Korean films in particular.
I have a week in Seoul visiting my son who is teaching English, I`m so looking forward to that.
As its such a long journey from Scotland, I decided a week in Phuket with some warm winter sun, amazing food and culture would add greatly to the experience.
I`m then heading to Malaysia
for two days , before heading to Korea.
You have given me the confidence to indulge and try new experiences, especially when it comes to food in far off places.
I have 3 days in Dubai in the way home, but I`m stuffed as you don`t cover the UAE.
I only hope you continue to produce these excellent films.
Thanks.
Andrew

amc3 Wow, thank you Andrew for your support and for watching my videos. I'm so glad to hear that my videos have been helpful in your trip planning!

Thanks again,
Mark

I sat at that very table one evening a few months ago eating gaeng som and stink beans. An unassuming little place with knock-out food.

Mark Wiens: Try Padang/Minang Food in Indonesia.... You can come to West Sumatra.... Many Amazing Food!
Big fan, my mom loves your vids hehe
Thank you Pram!
Love your videos, just got back and am planning another trip to thailand, really love the north, the food everywhere was amazing, really enjoyed the cooking school in chiang mai, we all loved our own cooking even more, ha ha
Cool to hear that, glad you had a great trip and the cooking school. Which cooking school did you go to?
thai kitchen cookery centre chiang mai, took with my 74 year old mother and 11 year old daughter, both loved it and will do it again
Love that food! Thai people have good hearts & they are Malaysian's nicest relatives and neighbours. Not like Indonesians who prefer to be our enemies.
Oh yeah. Garlic,lemon grass & herbs are a match straight from God's table! Great on poultry & fish!
I love Thai foods!
Thanks Ed!!!
I'm starving when I see your videos!... anyway, nice Petay.. it realy famous in my country :D
Regards,
Diaz from Indonesia
You make a really scaring face while you eat, I must say. But I like yours videos. And I love Thai food=)
great videos!
That all looks excellent. The chilis look so hot lol but so worth it I'm sure
Thank you for watching!
You've made me insanely hungry man... Awesome video!
Off topic question: How do you stay so lean with all of this amazing eating which you do?! Do you have any travel fitness tips?
Hey, thanks for watching. I normally eat a lot of fruits and vegetables, and exercise about every other day, and also I usually don't eat late at night. Those are some of the main things.
If I'm not mistaken, "Stink Beans" are also known as Sator Beans, a little more acceptable. I believe these dishes are served by the famous Jitlada restaurant here in Los Angeles.
All yout videos makes me hungry
Thank you Jeniffer!
omg i love stink beans so much .. imiss home
You make me hungry all the time
Southern Thai found is so similar to South Indian food. Turmeric, garlic and chilli are the base of south Indian food as well. But for the sour taste south Indians use tamarind and not lemon or vinegar. I am almost certain that the two regions have shared history
Yes, they definitely use some similar spices and ingredients. Both are two of the best (at least my favorite) cuisines in the world!
Love all your videos! Where does all the food go? You're still slim! :-)
Thank you for watching!!
Damn that looks so good. Could you make a video with your 3 fave noodle dishes? I'll assume you'll skip the pad Thai since we all know that one but I would like to try a different noodle dish at the next Thai restaurant and want to have an idea what to get. Thanks.
Hey, good idea, I'm in the US right now, but when I get back to Thailand will try to make a video for noodles. Thanks!
Mark i love you.live long and enjoy God bless
I was from Thailand but I moved to US and I wanna go back so badddd!!! ):
I tried Gaeng Tai Pbla for the first time today! It was really good but a bit different than yours. Mine had lots of noodles and it was served on a plate with a lot less of the curry/gravy thing. More like a regular dish than a soup looking thing.
Were the noodles "kanom jeen" white rice noodles? It's common to eat gaeng tai pla over kanom jeen noodles as well.
Mark Wiens
Ya! That's what they were. Great recommendation. Thanks! I want to try Gaeng Som soon. I live in the USA so there aren't that many good Thai restaurants but I'm in Sydney right now and because of the Thai population there's a lot of really authentic places.
Wow.....the most hottest food of Thailand.
This restuarant open for many years, very famous.
i want to have some of those......
Southern Thai Food is quite similar to Indonesian food ; in terms of appearances and tastes.
Denny Lim not same to Indonesian food
อาหารไทยอร่อยมาก
When Mark tilt his head to the left u noe the food is good;)
Ha, thank you Muhd!
Gang tai pla has a very distinctive smell. It think it comes form the fish bladders. If you've ever seen how this is made you might think - "Who came up with this!?" Nothing like it.
Haha! Like the bloopers..
Thanks Jend!
petai! my fav!
Mark Wiens กินเผ็ดเก่งมาก ^^
Kop kun krap!
What is the name of the little tune that plays in the beginning of the video? I really like it
So sad that Southern style is the rarest Thai food in USA. Maybe it's too strong for (most) western people.
Heck, I'm not even a Southy... But I'm really craving for Gang Som right now.
So this is why you married her. To get to her mum's cooking! Lol.
Wanted to wish you & your family & wife a verry merry joy fulfilled Christmas! Please surprise us with a Christmas food video?( or New Years!!!) 😁 always your fan ... What a steal all that for 6bucks! Give your wife a big Texas hug from me. 💐 for both of u. Merry early Christmas mark. 🎄 bless u dude😊
Thank you jimmy roberson, Merry Christmas to you as well! I'm going to try to publish a special video tomorrow.
I'm going to chiang mai next month any recommendation?
หรอยจังหู้
Pete in indonesia have a friend xD they called "jengkol" lol
Here in the Netherlands we call it peteh and not stinky beans :P.
They are very good for you.
And I love sambal peteh .
Glad you love them too, they are amazing and healthy!
Do the food be hot or cold is what I'm wondering? Looks good.
Could you please tell me where is รวมใต้ located on?
wich thai food is best North, South, ? ok good food video👍💯😋😍💖
Mark when u gonna visit Indonesia? I suggest u go to bali.. thanks anyway..
ปลาทูน่ากิน ;[];
Hey Mark, love your videos, I always end up very hungry haha
can you please explain me what is the satisfaction you feel when your mouth is burning like hell? I really can't understand, cause that hurts
you eat a lot and how u stay so slim? i been wanted ask u that question long time ago then thought u wouldnt answer...any way, enjoy ur life with great food.
Hey Angela, I'm going to make a video about this!
Okay thanks,i really want to know cox,i am totally foody but then i gain weight n have to cut down.
Hi Mark, I was wondering what makes Southern Thai food different from the rest of Thailands food? For example bread is more common in the North of India.
Hey, many things, but southern Thai food is often coconut milk based, lots of seafood, chili pastes, and normally white rice. Northeastern food for example would be sticky rice, salads, grilled meats. Southern Thai food is similar to some Malaysian food.
Sounds like you get an Endorphin kick from southern Thai food. I used to love spicy food but as I got older, my body cannot tolerate it.
I want to ear my phone now thanks! Lol
Hah, thank you for watching!
SeoulTee Yep!!
I wait for new clip on wednesday 20.00pm but it literally not release yet :(((
Sorry, late release this time because of Christmas... it's live now!
Im hungry right now..
Thanks for watching Paul!
Another question for your "question video" Mark. How do u stay so thin? I went to malaysia for 3 weeks and put on 1/2 a stone lol.
Hey Robert, that's a good question, and I'm going to try and answer it in a full video. But mostly just staying away from packaged food, eating lots of vegetables and fruit, and exercising.
Thanks for the advice Mark! keep up with the awesome videos :)
Thai curry
แกงใต้ขนาดคนไทยยังกินไม่ค่อยได้เลย ฝรั่งแท้ๆกินได้
finally
Thanks, I had actually forgotten that I hadn't made a video about southern Thai food
Lol...epic face!
That stink bean makes me hungry...
Mark, I have to ask, of all the places in Thailand where you went to and eat. Do they serve Beers?
You can buy beer at nearest convenience stores although they not sell it all the time due to a law.
You can get beers in every restaurants, they have a lot of beers for you. If you buy beers at 7-Eleven, it has a law so you should check a period that you can buy
Hey, some places yes, but yah as mentioned, lots of these small places don't have beer or anything but water. But yah you could always go to 7-Eleven or a convenience store.
all spicy
Yes, true to that!
i'm malay but i dont like petai...bravo to you mark!!!
0:46 xD first Sikh dude spotted in Thailand!
sambal petai?
I'm not sure my tastes are the same as yours, which I know is fine but it makes me wonder how much of the food I would like compared to you, lol! I like mild spice but my partner likes hot spice. I like a little sweet with the savory. When I think of sour, I think of fermented, or like sour cream. Lime to me is more acidic than sour, but I do love citrus taste in food. I was wondering why they call it stink bean in US? Does it stink? And does that go away with cooking. It's interesting that both southern Thai and southern India and some parts of southern America all have more spicy, hot food! Perhaps that is true in Mexico too? I love cilantro in food too and tomato and onion plus lemongrass and I like the crunch of jicama or water chestnuts. I love rice too and oddly potato combined in rice! yumm! I love most curries but I like mine mild. I don't like organ meat though, so not sure about that. I don't like kidneys either...that urine nitrate taste/smell is too pungent for me but I do like most fresh fish in broths over rice! Nigerian red tomato sauce with chunks of fish over rice is one of my favorite meals. Wish the internet had taste o vision! Lol! But, would love to get my debt load down to travel again! So envious sometimes of you Mark! Good job again! Merry Christmas!
Hey, Merry Christmas to you as well, and thanks for sharing! Yes, I think it's great how we all have our own taste buds and can all taste things uniquely. As for stink beans, they can smell a bit, but mostly they have give the "asparagus" effect, so smelly urine afterwards - but it's not bad. Mmm, that Nigerian fish tomato curry is a winning dish too!
*Stink Bean?!! it's a NO..NO..for me!!!XDDD*
Frida Martha it's healthy for your body
Malaysia have these too :)
Yes, and amazing food in Malaysia too!
Omg, an internal inferno !!! When you go to the toilet you have the fun again with an external inferno and can't sit normal for 2 days...
Haha, it's possible!
shinmusashi44 How so? Haven`t you tried it before actually moving?
I mean I once wanted to live in Japan, I went there and after a month of travelling from north to south of it... I discovered I`d go hungry 99% of the time cuz japanese cuisine is just soooo not my cup of tea. Well, I abandoned that dream.
ok, puzzle solved
0.48 there s an Indian guy!!!

Petaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaiiii!!!!!!!
Was your mouth smelly after eating the stinky beans?
Hey Nivash, probably, but a delicious stinky!
Меня немного лицо его довольное подбешивает)
