[@megatronmoneybag8576]

Thumbs up for the thum👍 You are definitely khon lao.

[@CookingWithKhonKhao]

Thank you for watching ❤️❤️

[@ryecatcher84]

Yasss fried chicken and thum is a fave past time… remember eating it as a kid for time sake.

[@CookingWithKhonKhao]

I need to get my own fried chicken recipe up on this channel!

[@Veedr0]

Instead of pork rinds Popeyes chicken skin makes the thin a whole lot better

[@CookingWithKhonKhao]

Let me know what you like to eat with thum! 😀

[@simlouangaphay8649]

Anything from the BBQ grill will taste good with the salad. Mine is the grilled Lao steak. Btw, your cucumber salad looks really good!

[@CookingWithKhonKhao]

@@simlouangaphay8649 Yas!! Lao steak is the best. I can’t even eat streak at a restaurant because it never compares to home made. ❤️❤️❤️

[@tonysamsenthaikhambaoxaych8507]

Mmmmm as i gotten older and became more familiar with food pairing it goes really well with Salted Prawn Chips ♡🍧🍷🍸🍹🍺🍻 🔥 Rice will fill me up too fast sticky or steamed =/ lol

[@tonysamsenthaikhambaoxaych8507]

Thum is perfect for all the seafood lovers out there such as myself both flavors just pairs really well and compliments each other 🍷🍸🍹🍺🍻

[@CookingWithKhonKhao]

@@tonysamsenthaikhambaoxaych8507 That sounds like a great pairing. I really like it with pork rinds so I would appreciate crunch.

Cat,Kat Sorry I don't know what letter you spell your name with but I seen a lot of your Lao cooking videos and it makes me really happy to see a non Asian chick that's really into Lao food and know how to make or cook Lao food. I envy you. S 'NINJA' KHAMMA 🇱🇦💜🌸💯👍

Im so happy! Thank you! I have no spelling preference for my name. I actually spell it both ways myself.
