Thai-Style Fried Mussels, 'Hoi Tod'Hoi Tod is typically a small dish and it's enjoyed all day long. Mussels are common in Thailand and served in a variety of dishes, often on pizza among the various pizza chains. Here we show our recipe for hoi tod, and scroll down to watch our sidewalk chef video filmed in Bangkok. NEW: We offer a large hoi tod pan (flat wok). Ingredients3/4 cup mussels (or oyster, squid, or other seafood of your choice) MethodMix tapioca flour with salt, pepper and soda water. Keep this mixture in the freezer while you prepare the mussels. Wash mussels and set them to dry. Beat the eggs, chop the parsley, wash bean sprouts, and then slice spring onion. In a nice flat frying pan heat vegetable oil at high heat. Ladle about 1/3 of the flour mixture into the oil, and spread it out. Sprinkle mussels on the flour and sprinkle with parsley and spring onion. Follow with egg. Using a spatula, mix the flour and eggs over and over a few times. When the flour has bright color, move to another side of the wok to make it crispy. Fry the garlic until aromatic, add bean sprouts and soy sauce. Serve together with hot dipping sauce, usually sriracha, and if you prefer something else try nam prik kiga, or nam prik narok.

4:43 PM My local small family owned Thai restaurant makes this. ÊIt is, I think, the best thing on the menu. ÊI get mine with shrimps and she serves it over fried cabbage and bean sprouts and garnished with a few dollops of sweet red pepper sauce. It is fabulous!

6:43 PM I contacted you about a year ago about a trip to Bangkok to eath, and you told me about a vendor off Sukhumvit who made Pad Thai with seafood--oysters I think and other seafood--scallops, shrimp, and bean sprouts. i think it was in Thong Lor. could you please send me that address again--we'll be in Bangkok this January again and I'd love to eat this meal--maybe several times! The place was just a little place about 10 feet wide with tables on each side of a central aisle. The woman cooking was at the front of the shop and cooked on a flat surface. Hope this is enough info!
