Thingyan rice
Thingyan rice (Burmese: သင်္ကြန်ထမင်း) is a traditional Mon dish served during Thingyan, the traditional Burmese New Year. Thingyan rice is infused with paraffin wax, which is extracted from a burning candle, and commonly served with a salad of cured salted fish, which is blanched and fried with onions, along with sour mango or marian plum.[1][2] The dish is then garnished with roasted chili peppers.[3] Although Thingyan rice originates from the Mon people, it is now commonly prepared throughout Lower Burma.[4]
