What Makes Crab Omelette Special

The Thai-style soft omelette is called ‘Khai Khonไข่ข้น in Thailand. It simply refers to a dish of soft, oozy scrambled eggs with one to two types of meat, typically seafood, with crab meat and shrimp being the most popular. For those who are familiar with a samrap of Thai meal, you would already be aware that an omelette is typically regarded as a coolant to a typically spicy Thai dish.

The omelette, however, started to progressively change around four or five years ago in a particular area of the Thai street food scene, going from being a basic side dish to the main course, glammed up with chunks and pieces of crab meat.
