Khao Moo Krob (Crispy Pork Belly with Rice)
ข้าวหมูกรอบ
About this dish
Khao Moo Krob is crispy pork belly served over rice, a Thai-Chinese favorite found at countless rice-and-curry stalls. The pork is slow-cooked then fried so the skin shatters with a satisfying crunch while the meat underneath stays tender and juicy. It is typically plated with sweet Chinese broccoli (kana), a sweet-savory gravy, and a sharp chili-vinegar dip on the side. Simple but addictive, it is best eaten the moment it hits the plate while the crackling is still crisp.
