My Cooking Thai Cuisine : Spicy stir-fried chicken with cauliflower (ENG-THI)

ผัดเผ็ดไก่กับดอกกะหล่ำ



Here, the rainy season has begun, but the days are still very hot. Over the past few days, it has often rained in the evening. However, today it started raining in the early morning, disrupting my plans to go to the market. I just wanted to buy some additional ingredients, like meat, shrimp, and squid. But it’s okay, I don’t want to wait for the rain to stop. I still have some meat and fresh vegetables stored in the fridge, so I’ll just prepare breakfast based on what I have.

I have chicken and cauliflower, but I’m hesitating about what to make with them. These two ingredients can work well in either a spicy dish or a stir-fry with oyster sauce. In the end, I decided to make a mildly spicy stir-fry for the kids.

I’ve made this dish for them before. At first, I thought it might be too spicy for them, but they could handle it—which surprised me because they can tolerate more spice than I expected. Especially my son: he scooped some of the curry sauce, poured it over his rice, mixed it well, and ate it with relish, sweat dripping down his cheeks. He even complimented my cooking, saying it was delicious. This is the main reason I cook for them myself.

Preparation of ingredients

ล้างอกไก่ให้สะอาด ซับน้ำออก แล้วหั่นเป็นชิ้นพอดีคำ ฉันหั่นเป็นรูปลูกเต๋า พักไว้


  • Cauliflower: The one I bought was already pre-cut, but some pieces were too big. So, I chopped them smaller to make the pieces more even in size. Then, I washed them thoroughly and set them aside to drain.

ดอกกะหล่ำ ที่ฉันซื้อใาถูกหั่นเป็นชิ้นเรียบร้อยแล้ว แต่บางชิ้นใหญ่เกินไป ฉันจึงนำมาหั่นให้เล็กลง เพื่อให้แต่ละชิ้นขนาดใกล้เคียงกัน เสร็จแล้วนำไปล้างน้ำให้สะอาด ตั้งพักไว้ให้สะเด็ดน้ำ


  • Kaffir lime leaves: Wash thoroughly, pat dry, then finely shred into thin strips. Set aside.

ใบมะกรูด ล้างให้สะอาด ซับให้แห้งแล้วนำมาหั่นเป็นเส้นฝอยๆ พักไว้

  • Add the pre-cut chicken breast and stir-fry with the curry paste until cooked. If it gets too dry, add a little water.

  • Add the chopped cauliflower and stir-fry until tender.

ใส่ดอกกะหล่ำที่หั่นเตรียมไว้ ผัดให้เข้ากัน จนดอกกะหล่ำสุก


  • Season with fish sauce and sugar, stirring well. Adjust the taste to your preference.

Spicy stir-fried chicken with cauliflower is a bold and flavorful Thai dish packed with aromatic herbs and spices. Here’s a breakdown of its key taste profiles:

  • Spicy Heat – From red chilies in the red curry paste, delivering a deep, warming spiciness (adjustable to preference).

  • Fragrant Herbs & Spices – The spicy curry paste includes garlic, shallots, lemongrass, and other spices, with kaffir lime leaves adding a bright, citrusy aroma.

  • Savory-Sweet Balance – Seasoned with fish sauce for umami depth and a touch of sweetness from palm sugar.

  • Crunchy Cauliflower – Lightly cooked but still crisp, absorbing the rich flavors of the sauce.

  • Tender Chicken – Juicy, well-marinated breast meat that stays moist and soaks up the spices.

  • Overall, this dish is fiery, aromatic, and well-balanced, perfect with steamed rice! For extra heat, add fresh chilies or tweak the seasoning to taste. Feel free to try cooking this, guys—it’s really simple!🌶️🍚

I wish you could teach me to make bread, muffins, cookies and some cakes! I don’t but these as they are too expensive and they taste of too much chemicals!

I noticed the spoon that you used in cooking, buying it here in my place is really expensive, I learned that using that kind of utensils in cooking is much healthier than using spoon. I hope to have one too. And in addition, the dish you cooked looks good in the photo it makes me feel hungry at the moment.
