Boiled Rice - Kao Tom
Steve asked me 2 days ago to write the post for boiled rice because he wanted eveyone to try this delicious Thai menu that he likes. So finally I’ve just had some free time today to write the recipe.
Here we go the recipe for boil rice (2 servings)…
2 cups cooked jasmine rice
100-150 grams minced pork or chicken
1 cup of pork broth or chicken broth (depending on what kind of meat that you’re going to use)
1 TBS light soy sauce
1 TBS Golden Mountain Thai Seasoning Sauce
1/2 TBS salt
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1/2 cup shallot,thinly sliced (you may use more because it will make your boil rice more tasty)
1/4 cup coriander,chopped
3 cups of water
3 TBS of cooking oil
You will be able to tell that not much for the recipe for this menu at all. Easy for your rushed morning even if you want to spend your nice time with nice meal. Or can cook in the evening and re-heat again in the morning it’s not going to take the good taste away at all.
Ok, first put the chicken broth and water in the pot over medium heat. Add soy sauce, Thai seasoning sauce, salt in the broth. During this time you can put 1 TBS oil in the wok and start to cook minced pork until it cooks. After the broth starts to boil remove the cooked pork from the wok and add it into the broth and wait until it starts to boil again and then decrease to low heat. Saute the shallot in 2 TBS of oil until fragrant and turn golden brown, remove and drain on absorbent paper.
And now it’s time to serve, put 1 cup of cooked rice into a serving bowl, add the broth with pork into the rice (just enough for abundance rice). Arrange on a serving bowl and sprinkle fried shallot, chopped coriander and pepper. Best when served hot and eat with another dish or by itself.
Next Wednesday I will present the recipe for everyone in your family “Peek Gai Todd” (fried chicken wings) and I guarantee everyone will love it. See you!

Kao tom moo - mmmmmmmmmmm, great stuff… it’s not just for breakfast anymore… I eat this for bfast and dinner and I usually add whatever veggies they have at the stand (here in Thailand). It’s filling, cheap, and healthy? I guess healthy if you cram it with vegetables and drink a beer with it to cool off because it’s hot and after you’ve eaten a bowl full of it in Thailand you WILL sweat sitting there in the 90 degree heat and 90% humidity.
Hi Vern,
yes it’s a great stuff for anytime that you want, but I never heard about drink a beer for cool off from hot food just like boil rice (hot hot not spicy). Steve also told me that but I don’t believe so next time I might need to try some and let’s see how it’s gonna be.

A great addition to Kao Tom I picked up while in Thailand is a little ginger and cilantro. adds a lot to the tastes and the ginger really helps sooth the stomach. enjoy!
Hey Rob, thanks for dropping by. The coriander in the recipe is actually the same as cilantro so that’s in there and you’re right it adds heaps to the taste. Golf likes ginger in her kao tom, but I’m not really that crazy about it…that’s why you don’t see it in the recipe here
