Origins

With many theories linked to the origins of this popular Thai dish, the most common one dates back to the 17th Century when ties between Southern Thailand and nearby Malaysia were strong, and many recipes and ingredients were exchanged. During this time, the Persian merchant Sheik Ahmad Qomi brought a similar recipe to the royal court of Ayutthaya. From here, both dishes were combined, and this delicious curry was created.
