Chicken, Pork, and Beef

Thai people love our meats, whether it's home cooking or street food. Pork is the most common meat that we eat so you'll find lots of that here, and chicken is almost just as popular. Beef is less common, but being in Canada, I have developed several recipes that use beef as well.

Here are the most popular ones to get you started:

• Chinese BBQ Pork (Char Siu). Not technically a Thai recipe, but in Thailand we eat a lot of char siu and incorporate it into many dishes. This recipe with over a million views on YouTube will get you the flavour that will rival any restaurants!
• Hat Yai Fried Chicken. This has a special place in my heart as it is my hometown specialty. I argue that it's the best fried chicken in the world, give it a try and see if you agree!
• Thai Marinated Grilled Steak with "Jeaw" Dipping Sauce. This is the only steak marinade you need! It's so flavourful, yet tastes neutral enough to go with any meal, Thai or not. Serve it with the nam jim jeaw dipping sauce for the complete Thai experience!
