[Thairish23]

@pitko420 the brown stuff? Pladack - small pickled fish.. AROY! but a bit smelly haaa

[missiekoko]

How she chops it is the old school way of doing it. Lol I remember I'd get scared when I use to do that but thank goodness to food tech?...lol

[Thairish23]

@missiekoko I like the traditional way of doing it because the pieces of papaya are usually bigger :) omnomnom hehe

[Thairish23]

@Migume2000 yeah it would

[chingychao]

how to do you make fresh plah rahh?

[Thairish23]

@chingychao Instructions from my mum:

1. 500g of (any) small non-poisonous river fish lol.

2. Add 60g of salt to the fish and mix, then keep in air tight container for 1 week.

3. Get 1 tablespoon of sticky rice and 'burn' it until it's brown in a wok or pan (no oil) (it's called Khao Kua).

4. Beat it in a 'Bok Bok' (Pestle and Mortar) until it's powder-like.

5. Mix Khao Kua with the fish, then leave it in the air tight container for 3 months.

6. Then it's ready to eat!

[toskevhlub]

when you put lime skin in it, it makes bitter

[Thairish23]

@toskevhlub yup, my mum likes it bitter and/or she was too lazy to squeeze the juice and remove the lime skin :)

[phichanickA]

@Thairish23 i actually like the lime skin in it..it gives u that exotic smell and taste..
