Hard Boiled Egg in Sweet and Sour Sauce
ไข่ลูกเขย
This is an interesting side-dish that I haven't had before. It is also strangely named in Thai as "kai luk kery".
A literal translation is "son-in-law eggs". Basically, some eggs are
hard-boiled and then shelled. These are then fried in hot oil until
they turn yellow. For the sauce, grind together cilantro root, garlic
and pepper. Stir fry them for a short while. Then add palm sugar, fish
sauce and tamarind sauce. Add some water and then simmer until it
becomes a thick sauce.
