Authentic Gaeng Hung Lay
Authentic Gaeng Hung Lay is a deeply aromatic Northern Thai pork belly curry, slow simmered until rich, tender and unctuous. Unlike coconut based Thai curries, Gaeng Hung Lay is built around a handmade paste, whole spices, tamarind and pickled garlic, creating a beautifully balanced dish that is sweet, sour and savoury all at once. This Authentic Gaeng Hung Lay recipe follows traditional techniques, starting with pounding the paste and slowly braising chunky pork belly until meltingly soft.
