I think most foreigners who are the fan of Thai food know this dish. It’s in the top ten Thai dishes. It’s famous because it’s not too spicy and a bit sweet. Many foreigners like curry with coconut milk because it’s not too hot. To make Gaeng Kiao Wan sauce thicker some people add fresh milk. To avoid black eggplants you should add eggplants while the water is hot and don’t cook them too soft or too hard.
