A mixture of soy sauce, eggs, peanuts, and a handful of other ingredients are all it takes to make this recipe so yummy. To use up the soy sauce you could follow this main course with the Panna Cotta with Strawberry-Vin Santo Sauce as a dessert.

Recommended wine: Chenin Blanc, Gewurztraminer, Riesling

Chenin Blanc, Gewurztraminer, and Riesling are my top picks for Thai. The best wine for Asian food depends on the cuisine and dish - of course - but these acidic whites pair with a number of traditional meals, spicy or not. The David & Nadia Chenin Blanc with a 4.2 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 36 dollars per bottle.
