ข้าวมันไก่หมูซ่าน

Origin

Khao Man Gai Moo Suan is a traditional dish from the Chinese community in Bangkok, especially in the Yaowarat area. It began as a classic preparation of chicken and rice, but was later enhanced by adding moo suan (dried barbecued pork) to elevate taste and add variety. This evolution created a unique and distinctive menu item.

Characteristics and Flavor

Khao Man Gai Moo Suan features soft, fragrant rice cooked in chicken broth and oil until rich and aromatic. Served on a plate with tender poached chicken, crispy-on-the-outside, juicy-on-the-inside moo suan, and a clear, garlic-scented broth. The taste is balanced—slightly salty and sweet—with a satisfying crunch from the moo suan and the rich aroma of the rice.

Ingredients

Jasmine rice, poached chicken, moo suan (dried barbecued pork), chicken broth, garlic, black pepper, sesame oil, sliced scallions, lime juice

How to Eat

Serve with the broth in a separate container. Mix a small amount of broth with the rice, chicken, and moo suan before eating. Consume immediately to fully enjoy the flavors and the crispiness of the moo suan.
