INSTRUCTIONS
From: "Colonel I.F.K. Philpott" <colonel@korat1.vu-korat.ac.th> Date: Mon, 19 Aug 1996 07:39:38 -0700 Vegetarians in Thailand generally flavour the rice by cooking it in nam sup ~ vegetable stock ~ rather than plain water. This imparts a richer flavour. METHOD: Bring to a rolling boil and boil for ten minutes, then reduce to a simmer and simmer for 50 minutes. Strain through a fine seive or chinoise, then keep refridgerated in a well stoppered bottle. Will keep refridgerated for 2-3 days or can be frozen and kept indefinately. Variation: If you are not a vegetarian you can add a cup of chicken bones to the mix. The resultant stock gives an excellent flavour to the rice, especially when accompanying simple chicken dishes like khao man kai (chicken and rice - a staple hawker food in Thailand).
