Thai Fish Cakes (tod man pla)
ทอดมันปลา
The next one can easily be eaten as an afternoon snack. If you have
ever been to Thailand then you would surely know that Thai people like
snacking all day. This one is a curried fish cake. However, it is not
as spicy as you might think. Don't be fooled by the green ingredients
in the fish cake. This is not green chili as I used to think. It is in
fact finely sliced long beans! You will also find finely shredded
kaffir lime leaf. This makes it a little sour in taste. The ingredients
are mixed in a bowl and then made into small patties. This is then deep
fried until golden brown. This dish cost 25 baht.
