0.0030 minutes
Laotian cuisine is packed with bold, balanced flavours. Reflective of surrounding countries such as Vietnam and Thailand, Laotian food also shares a balance of spicy, sour and sweet, however, it is relatively unknown to many Australians. Diana showcases sticky rice, a staple ingredient in Laotian cooking as she shares one of her favourite street food snacks khao jee (grilled sticky rice with egg). Diana explores popular flavours in Laos in a spicy pork sausage sai oua, packed with vibrant herbs and spices. Diana is also joined in the kitchen by Jerry Mai who prepares salt-crust grilled fish: a whole snapper filled with aromatics that celebrates Laos’s fresh and vibrant flavours.
