Jeao Maeng Dah

Well at least it's smaller than a cell phone. Now residing in our freezer waitning to be made into jeao.

An interesting language note. Maeng Dah is also a slang expression for the guy who lives off his woman. Lazy husband or boyfriend.

Carefully toast the Maeng Dah over the coals. It cooks quickly so don’t over cook, set aside.

Toast garlic, hot peppers, green onions etc. Like any other jeao, first crush the hot peppers in the sat, with bang nua, garlic, add nam pa, remove the wings, head, legs from maeng dah, then gently mash into the jeao. Serve with greens and sticky rice.

Unfortunately they ate our friend while I was up north for a couple of weeks.
