If there is no potato or sweet potato ,I think ,from your photo,it might be “Panaeng”. This is another kind of Thai curry. Panaeng is a curry with no vegetable (only topping with Kaffirlime Leaf slide but some restaurant don’t use it or at least don’t let customer see it). and more sweet than other Thai curries.

If I recall correctly, there was no potato in the curry. So far for all the Thai curries I have had, they had only the chicken, some vegetables, but no potato.

I thought That one is ” Mas-sa-maan” Coz Panang not sweet taste, if this curry have sweet and sour thought it is Mas sa mann, so about Sour from tamarind juice

I’m not sure coz in the picture is not look like normal Mas Sa Maan, that sold in the market, maybe it’s adjust for look better

if in the picture is Mas Sa Man, i will be have potato inside,

While we’re on the subject of shopping, I would recommend the Platinum Mall in Pratunam as the first stop. Many vendors from Chatuchak and Suan Lum actually purchase their supplies here! The variety of clothing, shoes, accessories etc is huge and cheap.

More variety and the prices are much, much lower!

Nop, just only “Gaeng Ped Gai” or “Gaeng Gai” .
It’s because whan = sweet which I ‘d told you once that normally Thai curry should not sweeten with sugar except from coconut milk itself. But Panang …the one you got at KoKo is a kind of a little bit sweet curry.

Wild boar curry? It makes pork curry sound infantile! I have never in my life eaten wild boar meat and have no idea what it tastes like. Have yet to spot it on a Singapore restaurant menu so far, though I have seen it in the form of bak kwa in Macau once. The people in Perak seem like a real adventurous bunch!

Well if anyone knows where in Singapore to eat wild boar meat, do drop me a note :)

for instance, there’s a small town named Gerik in the northern part of Perak state, which houses a good number of restaurants serving wild boar curry. imagine the delightfully-wild-and-gamey combination.

Thanks for the translation! That definitely clears things up. My mistake. Red curry chicken should be Gaeng Ped Whan Gai then?

Gaeng = curry
Kiew = green
Whan = sweet
Gai = chickcen

It’s what you call chicken “green curry” you’ve already known vey well ,not a red curry one.

I LOVE the sweet curries in Thai cuisine! I found this Thai name “Gaeng Kiew Whan Gai” for a red curry dish on a Thai restaurant menu. I know Gai is chicken. But what are the first three words?

I Think the sweet curry pork might be Thai curry which call “Panang” in Thai. This kind of curry usually a little bit more sweet than other Thai curries.
