Laos Foods Recipes

This dessert must be the easiest, convenient ,and quick. Agar comes in different flavours: coconut, almond, coffee, etc. In my video, I layer with different flavours and decorate with food colouring.

For every Lao and Thai traditional meal, there must be a dipping sauce, also known as 'jeow'. This jeow ba dek is the most traditional and that is why I call it the Lao National Dipping Sauce. Other versions of this traditional Thai and Lao dipping sauce : For 'jeow ga be' use shrimp paste instead of salted gourami fish For 'jeow ga boo' use crab paste instead of salted gourami fish For 'jeow bee' add 1 tablespoon of gall bladder and mix with any dipping sauces to give the sauce a bitter flavour Jeow Ba Dek ½ teaspoon chopped lemongrass ½ teaspoon chopped galangal ½ teaspoon chopped garlic 1 chopped kaffer lime leaf 2 tablespoons chopped or minced salted gourami fish (ba dek) 1 teaspoon fish sauce (optional) 3 tablespoons lime juice In a Thai / Lao Mortar & Pestle Set pound lemongrass, galangal, garlic, and lime leaf until smooth. Add minced salted gourami fish and squeezed lime. Mix and serve with sticky rice and jasmine rice
