Method

Instructions for making KANOM GUI CHAI

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chives

    Wash the Chinese chives thoroughly and chop them finely. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a mixing bowl, combine the rice flour, tapioca flour, and salt. Gradually add water, stirring until a smooth batter forms.

  3. 3

    Combine Chives with Batter

    Fold the chopped Chinese chives into the batter until evenly distributed.

  4. 4

    Cook the Cakes

    Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and add the vegetable oil. Pour a ladleful of the batter into the pan, spreading it out to form a small cake. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Dipping Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce and sugar until dissolved. Adjust the taste by adding sliced Thai chili as desired.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the pan-fried chive cakes hot with the sweet and sour soy sauce for dipping.
