做法
- 把香茅、青柠叶、南姜、姜黄、辣椒、大蒜、红葱头和香菜根在研钵中捣成细腻芳香的橙绿色酱。这需要十五分钟稳定的工作;颜色和油就是这道菜的灵魂。
- 把猪肉手工剁碎或机器粗绞。与香料酱、鱼露和盐混合。用力揉搓三分钟,直到混合物有黏性、能成团。
- 加盖在冰箱里至少静置一小时,过夜更好——风味需要时间渗入肉中。
- 冲洗肠衣,套在灌肠器上,把肉馅灌进去。打结后盘成约20厘米直径的扁平螺旋;用竹签十字固定。
- 在中火炭火上烤,每两分钟翻一次,共约20分钟。肠衣应噼啪作响,颜色变成红棕色——用竹签穿透,流出的汁液应清亮。
- 离火静置五分钟。切片后配糯米饭、生卷心菜、生豇豆和nam prik num(烤青辣椒酱)上桌。

文化背景
Sai ua是泰北(兰纳)香肠中最出名的,也是清迈市集和寺庙集市的标配。香料用量将它与较温和的伊善sai krok或越南发酵的nem chua区分开:青柠叶就是它的指纹。星期日市场上,一卷sai ua现切现卖,人们站着吃,一手糯米饭、一手生卷心菜片以解辣。
