Khai Jiew Poo
(ไข่เจียวปู)

For a taste of Thai comfort cooking at its most elegant, Khai Jiew Poo – or crab omelette – is hard to beat. Generous chunks of fresh crab are folded into beaten eggs and lightly seasoned before being fried to golden, puffed perfection. It’s fluffy, savoury, and just rich enough to satisfy cravings for a simple meal. Often enjoyed with jasmine rice and a dash of chilli sauce, it’s the kind of unfussy, deeply satisfying fare that speaks to Thailand’s love of flavour done simply — and well.
