Satay Gai/Nua

Chicken or beef satay. This snack is prepared like a barbeque. Strips of chicken or beef are marinated, lined on a stick and grilled or broiled in the oven. The secret of an appealing flavor lies on the marinate mix. The dipping sauce commonly used is a homemade peanut mush.

Tom Jued

Thai soups are very famous for being nutritious, tasty and spicy. Some of them are great for a person with cold. Famous soups include tom yum soup, tofu noodle soup with lemongrass, pumpkin coconut soup, special orange fish soup, coconut chicken noodle soup, chicken noodle soup with chili and the easy to make Thai chicken soup.

Maleng Thod

Insects are included in the list of Thai snacks. Some people may find it creepy but insects are actually a good source of protein and taste good too. Crickets, grasshoppers, beetles, termites and silkworm pupas are deep fried, drained and sprinkled with garlic and fish sauce.
