Best Tam Khanun in Chiang Mai

Tam Khanun is a traditional Northern Thai salad made from pounded young green jackfruit. The jackfruit is boiled until tender and then pounded with a rich paste of chilies and shrimp paste. It is stir-fried with minced pork, tomatoes, and aromatic herbs like kaffir lime leaves. The result is a unique texture that is both fibrous and creamy with a savory kick. It is a lesser-known gem for travelers looking to experience authentic Lanna home cooking.
