Khanom chin nam ya

This fiery Thai fish curry is usually associated with Central Thailand, although similar varieties can be found throughout the country. The most popular version consists of fresh rice noodles (khanom chin) that are served with a thick and spicy curry which is based on coconut milk, white fish, and a thick curry paste that usually combines freshly ground chilis, lemongrass, shrimp paste, turmeric, and garlic. The dish is traditionally accompanied by fresh vegetables, lemon basil, and fried chilis. Traditionally, it comes topped with hard-boiled eggs.
