    Did a quicksearch in my Thai cookbooks & Google, for the rich succulent dish called Gaeng Hung Lay, served at Sticky Rice. The cubed Pork, is clearly cooked w/ garlic cloves (whole)- but other than that...I haven't a clue.
    The folks at Sticky Rice all seem so nice- I've considered to ask the owner....but thought that I'd try here 1st.

    This recipe certainly looks like it contains many of the same ingredients (and it has the same name, just transcribed from Thai differently)

    Thanks alot Geli...
    I'll be sure and give it a try.
    I did notice that when I searched under a different spelling (Gaeng) versus (Gang), I got many more hits....
    Just the "Americaniation" of a different language.

    Not really, it is transliteration from one language to another with different people using different approaches on how to convey the original tongue into English. It is the reason why there is ketchup and catsup for the very same product. The name came from another language and transliterated into English.

    David Thompson has an excellent recipe for kaeng hangleh in his book, Thai Food.

    I now have my own take on the dish, but the recipe is a secret. :wink:
