Khanom Krok
ขนมครก
Mild
Khanom Krok are Thai coconut milk pancakes — small, dome-shaped bites with a crispy rice-flour shell and a sweet, creamy coconut custard centre, cooked in a cast-iron spherical pan.
Key Ingredients
- rice flour
- coconut milk
- palm sugar
- spring onion
- sweet corn
Where to Try It
Morning markets and temple fairs throughout Thailand — easily spotted by the sizzling cast-iron pans.
Tips
- They should be eaten warm when the outside is crispy and the inside still slightly liquid — a contrast in texture that disappears as they cool.
