Khanom Jeen Nam Yaa
Ingredients:
For fish curry:
300 g. (10 1/2 oz.) Chinese spaghetti
500 g. (1 lb.) fillet of fish, boiled
2 cups coconut milk
100 g. (3 1/2 oz.) instant red curry paste
1 tbs. galingale, minced
2 tbs. fish sauce
2 tsp. shallot, grilled and pounded
2 tsp. garlic, grilled and pounded
For side dishes:
1/4 cup sweet basil leaves
1/4 cup beansprouts
1/2 cup long beans, chopped into 2.5 cm. (1 inch) long pieces
2 hard boiled eggs, cut into quarters
2 tbs. sauteed shallots
1/2 cup pickled cabbage, shredded
 

Preparation:

1. In a food processor, blend shallots, garlic and galingale together. Add instant red curry paste and boiled fish. Remove when thoroughly blended. This becomes the fish paste.
2. Over a low heat, bring the coconut milk to a boil. Add the fish paste. Stir until the fish paste is well blended with the coconut milk. Bring to a boil again. Season with fish sauce and remove.
3. When serving, accompanied with separate side dishes of vegetables and eggs.
4. To eat, place the Chinese spaghetti on individual plates and pour some fish curry soup over. Top with vegetables from the side dish and toss together well with the spaghetti.

Note : "Khanom Jeen" or Chinese spaghetti dish is usually served in various merit making parties. This is because the Thais believe that the long feature of "Khanom Jeen" signifies the long life.
