Gai Saam Yang

Chicken Three Ways

is not a chicken dish, as the literal translation “three times grilled chicken” might suggest, but rather a simple yet popular snack. For this, ingredients such as roasted peanuts, fresh ginger, lime pieces, chilis, shallots and dried shrimp are arranged on a plate.

The idea is to combine these different ingredients with their different flavors spoonful by spoonful so that new flavor explosions are constantly created. In this respect, it is comparable to the popular snack Miang Kham, where the composition of ingredients is very similar.
