Kaeng som or gaeng som (Thai: แกงส้ม IPA: [kɛːŋ sôm]) is a sour and spicy fish curry or soup with vegetables popular in central Thailand. The curry is characteristic for its sour taste which comes from tamarind (makham). The recipe uses palm sugar (Thai: น้ำตาลปี๊บ nam tan pip) to sweeten the curry.
