Pork Rib and Jackfruit Curry without Shrimp Paste and Fermented Soybeans (Kaeng Khanun)

I'm practicing Northern Thai cooking and miss the flavors. However, the person eating is allergic to shrimp paste, fermented soybeans, and fermented fish, so I had to adjust the recipe. I pre-cooked the pork and jackfruit until tender, blended the curry paste, and simmered them together. I added small sour eggplants for a tangy taste and included prickly ash in the curry paste because I love it so much. 😆

I'm practicing Northern Thai cooking and miss the flavors. However, the person eating is allergic to shrimp paste, fermented soybeans, and fermented fish, so I had to adjust the recipe.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Clean the pork ribs thoroughly and simmer until tender. Wash the jackfruit and soak in salt water, then cut into desired pieces, removing any hard parts. Boil together with the pork ribs, adding a little salt.
- 2
Peel the shallots and garlic, wash them along with the galangal and lemongrass, and soak the dried chilies until soft. Remove the chili seeds, then blend with galangal, lemongrass, prickly ash, and peanuts, adding a little salt. Use a bit of pork broth to help blend smoothly.
- 3
Pour the curry paste into the pot with the pork broth and jackfruit. Cover and simmer on low heat until the flavors meld, then add the small sour eggplants.
- 4
Once the eggplants release their juice, taste and add more tamarind juice if it's not tangy enough. You can also add fish sauce since there's no shrimp paste. Finally, add the betel leaves and cha-om.
- 5
Simmer for a short while longer, and the pork rib and jackfruit curry is ready to serve.

Young Jackfruit Curry Young Jackfruit Curry
"Young Jackfruit Curry with Sour Vegetables" Young jackfruit has a sticky sap. In the local dialect, something sticky is called "tang," like a gecko's sticky feet. Eating jackfruit curry makes your bottom sticky—just kidding! When you cut young jackfruit, it releases sticky sap. The sour vegetable curry is my own creation. Besides the sourness from fermented pork, it includes lime juice and sometimes cherry tomatoes, creating a triple sour punch. Eat until your bottom puckers, haha.Jackfruit curry is traditionally eaten on April 16th, the Thai New Year, because "jackfruit" symbolizes support and prosperity, marking the year's start with a dish of good fortune. Whether you make jackfruit curry or salad, it's up to you, but most people make curry. In large families like mine, we survey who will make what to avoid duplicates and share the dishes. My aunt's house likes jackfruit curry with buffalo meat, while my uncle's house prefers pork ribs. If you're too lazy to cook, you can ask for a bowl from another house, or the host might distribute it, like a "pay it forward" gesture.Making jackfruit curry isn't hard; the challenge is the young jackfruit. If you pick one that's too ripe or unripe, it won't taste good. The curry can vary; some families fry the curry paste with oil, while others prefer a clear broth. Even chopping the jackfruit has its nuances, depending on personal preference.When cooking in large pots, cooks often debate whether to fry the paste or not, or how to chop the jackfruit. As someone who just eats, I say, "Whatever you decide, it's all delicious!"Thanks to the Chomdok family and P'Tiw (again) for helping create this jackfruit curry image.

I had some leftover satay pork dipping sauce, so I mixed it into a broth and added pasta noodles. The result was a delicious curry noodle soup. I didn't feel like cooking meat, so I used tofu, shiitake mushrooms, and whatever beans I had on hand. The broth is made from onions and shiitake mushrooms—it's really tasty.
