About Boiled Rice with Pork Balls

Praew presents this khao tom moo as her family’s Thai breakfast soup. Jasmine rice cooks in a light broth with pork meatballs and celery, making a bowl with plentiful liquid around the softened grains.

Garlic and coriander root are pounded and fried before the uncooked rice joins them. White pepper, light soy sauce, salt and a bouillon cube season the broth.

Chopped green onion finishes the soup. Cilantro, fried garlic, chillies, lime, chilli flakes and crispy shallots are offered toppings, while a soft-boiled egg is another optional addition.
