Thai takeaway is booming in Australia, with the number of Thai restaurants growing to meet the demand of hungry, spice-loving Aussies! And with Thai food being known for its light and refreshing taste, it’s little wonder that Thai food has become a national favourite! Thai chefs continue to bring a wide variety of traditional foods to Australian Thai restaurants, offering native recipes with fiery chillies, as well as fusion-based dishes that blends Thai with Australian and European cuisine. As with most Asian cuisines, rice is the staple of Thai food, with strong aromatic components and spiciness strongly emphasised.

Popular dishes
Thai Green Curry
Thai cooking focuses on lightly prepared dishes with strong aromatic ingredients and a spicy edge. Thai Green Curry is coconut curry flavoured with fresh green chili peppers and Thai basil with chicken, prawns or fish balls. Want spicier? You want Thai Red Curry with Roast Duck, the quintessential mix of the Thai (red curry) and Chinese (red roast duck) cuisines, and often cooked with fruits like grapes and pineapple. Thai Yellow Curry is a Thai-Muslim dish made with chicken and potatoes, though other meats or prawns are often used. Massaman Curry is a thick, almost-Indian-style curry containing coconut milk with stewed beef or chicken and rare dried spices. Jungle Curry hails from forested areas of Northern Thailand (and contains no coconut milk, as they didn’t occur naturally there). Once cooked with wild boar, it is still anything but boring with chicken or pork.
Sate (Satay)
Want to go to Thailand, but used up all your holidays? Then let Menulog bring the tastes of Thailand to you. For starters there’s Sate (Satay): marinated beef, chicken or pork grilled on bamboo skewers served with peanut sauce and pickled cucumber. Or Thai Spring Rolls, usually served as a dim sum containing minced pork, shredded carrot and bean sprouts with a Thai dipping sauce (kind of similar to Worcestershire sauce). Thung Thong (Money Bags) are small, crispy, deep-fried pastry purses filled with a mixture of minced chicken, pork, prawn, mushroom and water chestnut, then served with Thai sweet sauce. And Thai Crab Cakes are a mixture of crab meat, pork, garlic and pepper deep-fried either as patties or inside the crab shells, then served with plum sauce.
