Thai Love to snack, but they still eat three main meals a day.
A rice-based soup containing bitsof chicken, fish or pork and accompanied by seasoning ingredients might be breakfast. Lunch might be a rice or noodle dish. But the evening meal is the main meal of the day. It is not separated into courses but the dishes are bought to the table at the same time which includes the soup.
All food are eaten warm and at room temperature. Along with rice, there might be soup, a salad, a steamed dish, a stir-fry, a curry, some sauces and possibly a deep-fried dish.
Everything is shared. Dessert may simply be fresh fruit or a small custard-type dish. Tea, water and fruit juices also accompany the Thai meal.

Pad Thai or Phad Thai (Thai Noodles) is one of the best-known dishes of Thailand. It is a meal on its own with many variations, but should always include noodles and peanuts. This is the one noodle dish to master, and to love, over all the others. It’s so addictive that it alone...
By the look of this dish, the Chicken and Straw Mushroom Curry dish, I can’t wait to grab the bowl of steamed jasmine rice (khao rice) and start eating with it.

Thai soups usually stay on the table throughout the meal. They can serve as a sauce for rice or dishes that have no sauce of their own. Some soups are very light and can be served as a first course, whereas others are more substantial and may be served as a light lunch or supper dish.

I served this Thai beef curry to my family during our dinner and it makes me wonder how did I cook this dish because it was really good.

This Thai food recipe is a good appetizer especially with the flavor combination of shrimp and garlic. I suggest that you use a large shrimp or a jumbo shrimp if possible because they are juicier and tender to eat which will make this Thai dish an unforgettable meal.
