How Thai cuisine cooks with eggs
Thai cooking chases the balance of hot, sour, salty and sweet in every dish — fresh, aromatic and unafraid of chilli. When Thai cooks work with eggs, they reach for fish sauce, lime, lemongrass, galangal, Thai chilli and palm sugar, and the techniques that come up most across these recipes are frying, stir-frying, marinating and caramelising.
The kitchen's great multitasker — binder, leavener, emulsifier and a fast meal in their own right. In this collection it's most often cooked with fish sauce, garlic, neutral oil, oyster sauce, soy sauce and cooked jasmine rice. The dishes here span thai classics ready in as little as 13 minutes to slower, more involved cooking that rewards a relaxed afternoon.

Choosing & preparing eggs
How to choose
Fresher eggs sit flat with a domed yolk and sink in water; older ones float. Pasture-raised eggs tend to have deeper-coloured, richer yolks.
Prep & storage
Room-temperature eggs whip to greater volume and are less likely to crack when boiled. Crack into a separate bowl first to catch shell and check freshness.
When is it done?
Soft-boiled: 6 minutes; jammy: 7–8; hard: 10–12. Scrambled eggs are best pulled off the heat while still slightly wet — they keep cooking.
Nutrition
A complete protein with all nine essential amino acids, plus choline, vitamin D and lutein — mostly in the yolk.
Classic flavour partners: butter, chives, cheese, tomatoes, spinach, black pepper
