Thai Food DIshes, Fried Fish Cakes.
We will come to the recipe of this popular Thai food dish in a moment. Before we move into the details of how to make Thai fried fish cakes, let us answer two very frequently asked questions related to this Thai food dish. The Thawd Man Plaa fish cakes are popular with both Thais and foreigners. Many food cooking enthusiasts and lovers of Thai food like to know whether the fried fish cake is hot (chillies). The answer is basically a yes, Thais love their food to be hot and racy. One of the reasons why fried fish cakes are hot is because, the ingredients for this Thai food recipe include both red curry paste and red chillies. If you want to try your hand at cooking Thai food, you can adjust the number of chillies that are used in the dish. Let us presume that you start out to make the Thai fried fish cake dish. Keep the red chillies out of the cooking and include only the red curry paste. Once you have made this dish for the first time, subsequent attempts can moderate the volume of ingredients and even their proportions to suit your preference.
The second query that is often brought up is about the flour that is used to make the deep fried fish cake. The texture and firmness of the thawt mun plaa cakes is brought about by using rice flour or corn flour. Many people trying their hand at cooking this popular Thai food dish want to know which of these flours is better. Assuming that the word ‘better’ relates to the flavor and taste of the dish, we would recommend using rice flour for your fried fish cake recipe. However, if you find it hard to get rice flour than go for corn flour instead. One of the local Thai restraunts in the northern provinces of Thailand tried an interesting change. This lady used neither corn flour nor rice flour but instead tried, wheat flour for the fish cakes. They did taste great but, it is highly recommended that you eat the cakes soon after making them if you use wheat flour. This is because dishes cooked with wheat flour can become quite tough and even hard when kept for a long time after cooking.
