Goong Tod Kratiem Prik Thai (Prawns Fried with Garlic and White Pepper)
This dish is a classic Thai preparation of protein. It's a very satisfying dish, especially made with shell-on shrimp. We eat shrimp, shells and all, so we don't miss out on any flavor. It's also a kid-friendly dinner dish. Serve with lots of rice.
