description Nam Ya Overview

Nam Ya is a traditional Thai curry sauce made primarily from fish, typically catfish or snakehead fish, pounded with a blend of spices including fingerroot (grachai), lemongrass, galangal, and kaffir lime.

Nam Ya is considered one of the foundational dishes of Thai cuisine, with regional variations throughout Thailand, particularly in central and southern regions where it's often part of ceremonial meals.
