- It is a kind of Thai sweet made of sticky rice stir-fried in coconut milk, stuffed with a piece of ripe banana, wrapped in banana leaf or young coconut leaf, and then steamed until done. Another kind of Khao-tom-mud is called 'khao-tom-luk-yon' which is made for End of Buddhist Lent Day. It is wrapped in oval shape in mangrove fan palm leaf or young coconut leaf, and each piece is tied together and boiled cook. The ingredient inside is sticky rice mixed with black beans, no stuffing. In addition to khao-tom-mud and khao-tom-luk-yon, there is also 'khao-tom-mud-tai' which is wrapped in a similar shape (a long, thin rod) of 'Tai' or a type of torch. Its stuff contains golden bean pound with coriander root, garlic, pepper, ground pork and pork crackling, seasoning with salt, water and sugar. Khao-tom-mud-tai is wrapped in banana leaf, tied into 4-5 parts with thin bamboo stripes and boiled. In some regions, it is used to make a sacrifice to god (among the Chinese) in Chinese New Year or in Chinese Ghost Festival.
In the North East of Thailand, Khao-tom-mud is called 'Khao-tom-kluay'. Raw rice is seasoned with little salt, mixed with cooked peanuts, stuffed with a piece of ripe banana, wrapped in banana leaf, and boiled. Moreover, another kind is stir-fried khao-tom-kluay. Firstly, raw sticky rice is stir-fried in coconut milk, wrapped in banana leaf, added a piece of ripe banana, and boiled. If you would like it to be a little sweeter, you can dip the khao-tom-kluay in sugar. On the other hand, in the North, khao-tom-kluay is popular in a way of cutting it into pieces and adding long shredded coconut and sugar. This is called 'Khao-tom-hua-ngok'. There is Khao-tom-mud in Laos as well, and it is similarly called 'Khao-tom', stuffed with pork crackling and golden bean or ripe banana. In the South of Thailand, Khao-tom-mud has no stuffing, but it is usually made of sticky rice, stir-fried with coconut milk and white beans not black beans. Its unique flavor is quite salty. It can be sprinkled with sugar in case people would like it to be a little sweeter. Besides, there is also another sweet, like khao-tom-mud, which is called 'Khao-tom-yuan', but the package is bigger. It is similarly cooked by boiling and served by cutting into pieces and sprinkling with long shredded coconut, salt and sugar. - Current :
