Procedures:
1This is the answer to the question "if thais eat so much hot and spicy food, what do they eat for breakfast?" (but they also eat som tam and curries).
2Khao tam is a fairly bland and innocuous soup, that is always considered a meal in itself (never served with other foods).
3While it can be made with almost any meat, it is most commonly made with seafood combinations or just plain khao tam.
4Method: saute the garlic and reserve as a garnish.
5In a saucepan, boil the stock, add the celery, soy sauce, pepper and rice, and bring back to a boil.
6Add the shrimp and cook until it turns pink.
7Serve immediately, garnished with the sauteed garlic and coriander leaves.
8Servings & storage: serves 4 colonel i.
