NOTE: Just a note to clear up any confusion. In Thailand, there are a number of different types of water plants all referred to as “lotus.” So the actual lotus in English includes the big lotus leaves, roots, and flowers, but the stem is very tough and inedible. What we’re harvesting in this video is referred to in Thai as lotus stems, but in English it’s actually water lily.
Phatthalung (พัทลุง), Thailand - Welcome to Phatthalung, which is one of my favorite provinces in Thailand - one of the most relaxing and chilled out places you can visit in Thailand. Today we’re at lake Thale Noi, famous for lotus and water lilies. After we harvest wild lotus stems and flowers, we’re going back to Uncle Sanan’s house to cook some spicy Southern Thai food - plant based (vegan) food.
We also harvested fresh water mimosa (ผักกระเฉด pak krachet), which is one of my favorite vegetables, so it was very cool to be able to pick it fresh - actually forage it wild - from the lake.
In order to get cooking, Uncle pounded up some garlic and pepper, and then stir fried both the water lily lotus stems with garlic and black pepper and soy sauce. Then he also made the water mimosa using the same recipe. Next, he pounded up some fresh turmeric and stir fried it with rice to make an amazing bright orange turmeric rice, which he wrapped in a lotus leaf for extra flavor.
It was an amazing plant based vegan Thai food meal. And again, it’s so cool to be able to harvest or forage your food before you eat it.

Uncle needs his own channel. He is very informative!
Yesss he is I would to watch more of his adventures and his lifestyle!
5:58 Ying said to Micah “pull it up, son. Maybe we can find a crocodile for uncle to make curry”
Lol 😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣 man i am laughing out loud.. mark should give us all the subtitles
Lolll I love herrr
I can see how "happy and excited" the locals, especially the older people are in sharing their local produce, cuisine and the experience. It makes me smile thinking that they too can play a huge part of local tourism and experience. I know mimosa leaves and roots are medicinal but never knew that young leaves can be prepared for a dish
Thank you so much Jeanette!
Do you know if the Mimosa is the same as Mimosa Pudica (sensitive plant)? Its the leaf which folds up when you touch it.
@@Jayapullani No, Mimosa Pudica (called maiyaraab in Thai) has medicinal properties but as far as I know it isn't used in cooking. Water mimosa is called pak krached and can be stir-fried or added to sour soup (gang som).
@@Jayapullani it is
Hearing little Micah speak Thai just melted my heart. I’ve been waiting since the announcement of him to hear and watch him grow with the unique life you’re providing. Like always, great content!
Mark your uncle just gave you a long water lily necklace, so funny that man😀😁😂
Haha, I was surprised!
This uncle is full of positive energy
There are people in Puerto Rico that choose to live like this, rustic life in the mountains and by the rivers. They wrap food in banana leaves for flavor, they also harvest wild root vegetables. Mark, you must visit someday!
What a wonderful lively Uncle, he rides the boat, he knows where to get the food, cooks so interestingly, even what a beautiful place and lifestyle he lives, he will live to be 100 and remain healthy and happy.
Mark, you appreciate even the smallest things in life. I love that about you. Keep doing what you are doing. You are making a lot of people happy! Stay safe and healthy! Lots of love from the Philippines!
i know im asking the wrong place but does anybody know of a way to get back into an instagram account?
I somehow lost the login password. I would appreciate any tricks you can give me
@Zane Jimmy Instablaster =)
What a fun episode and such chill fun vibes. I loved Uncles total enthusiasm for showing you farm to table, what a setting!
Thank you Morgan!
Mark: "Mmmmm, it has a little bit of a green taste to it" while eating an herb. 🤣🤣
your son speak English and Thai that's awesome man my future kids will be multi lingual to. Time flies I remember when you announced to us that you're gonna have a baby now he's all grown up when are you gonna bring back Joel we have not seen him for a while.
When Micah drop the rice...me: shouting "aaaayyyyy"!!!😂
Micah at a young age has already travelled some of the remote areas of Thailand..have a blessed day and be safe
This is the only food channel on TH-cam that made me crav to eat vegetables 🤣😋
I will never be able to travel to these places because I am an elder. You take me to those places with your show. I enjoy every trip you take. I can imagine the tastes through you. Keep up the good work ,love your show.
We also eat water mimosa and lily stem in Manipur northeast state India.
Such a beautiful natural area. Uncle is really passionate about the local vegan options! I love it.
Micah must speak, at least, two languages. Lol. So cute and so intelligent. What a great life and great food. Thanks Mark, Ying, and Micah.❤
Thank you Paula, yes he goes back and forth from Thai to English!
Next video, Micah's favorite foods?
I love this video! I'm now vegan, so I'm really happy that you are making vegan content. Thank you Mark. I'm an old fan, that has missed your video's soooooooooooo much since becoming vegan... It's a real treat to see you, Ying and cute Micah. :)
Fantastic. Simple style cooking, fresh ingredients - that must lead to a great taste. That's how cooking should be. Loving it...
Thank you, yes, delicious, simple and fresh!
Mark so impressed how you parent Micah. Imho the ultimate mentor is a good father to his son or daughter.
I remember my childhood when uncle gave a necklace of lotus steam with mark’s! Hahaha! I love it!♥️
I really wish to eat with you. You look like a real foodie, love how you appreciate everything that's served in your plate. ❤️
Thank you Tania, would be great to eat with you sometime too!
@@BigOnSpiceMarkWiens thank you for the response 😂😍😇
Hi Mark. Thank you for doing videos on plant-based food! I have been eating plant-based for a couple months now and I've never felt better!! love all your videos of course but so excited to see more videos on plant-based food!!
I love that you take Mika everywhere you go. I love that he is learning so much being out with his parents. But I was wondering about his schooling. Is he homeschooled? Or is he still not of age to attend school? Either way, you are doing a fabulous job teaching him about the world!
Thank you so much. Actually he just started school in January of this year. So going forward we plan to take big trips during his school breaks.
At risk of being the antagonist of what should be deemed the obvious: Micah has learned more being with his parents/grandparents and interacting with different races/cultures than formal schooling could ever teach him in the same amount of time. Be well and have fun at school Micah!
And Mark continues to deliver interesting and fun videos! God bless you and yours, Mark, Ying, and Micah!!
Ying said : Micah pull harder, we might get a crocodile so the uncle can cooking for us.
@ 5:55 min of the video
lol
Thank you it adds even more to everything!
she does not mess around everything is up for eats.
Everything from the boat ride to the harvesting to finally the cooking and what the food must of smelled and tasted like was very interesting to me.
Thank you for sharing yet again another great experience Mark
The learning experience of these videos is just so amazing. Love the locals and their attitude to life.
I've just subscribed to your plant based channel. Big On Spice... Big On Smiles! I'm so happy that you have started this Mark. Thank you! I'll look forward to all your plant based content.
What a beautiful paradise! Beautiful lotus flower, especially the lotus flower necklace🥰amazing!
Uncle must be tucking into all these foods, and thus he looks so healthy too.
Literally from Lake to Table! Amazing! Wiens family quarantine living is amazing.
This was wonderful to watch! I love the lotus root- very addictive. Thank you for sharing this!
What a wonderful experience for you and your family. Micah is being exposed to so many wonderful places. Thanks 🙏🏽 for sharing
14:41 that quick stir fry vegetables lightly seasoned and it is still retain some snap, if you can hear it lol u know what I mean. Also 16:46...I didnt think I could crave vegetables until he reminded me there's more to vegetables than what you get in restaurants in the states lol.
I enjoy all your channels but the videos I enjoy most are the ones where you give us a glimpse of life off the beaten path (literally). In a strange way, with the pandemic limiting travel, it allowed you to uncover these places even more than before. Joel does a great job of this as well. Some people see the wonder of the differences between people/culture but what I see is that, in fact, we are all very much the same. "Keep on keepin' on".
Mark, Ying and Micah you are all an amazing family , I enjoy all your videos on all 3 of your channels
Mark delivers as usual in his epic style 💕 to you and your family 💕💕
Thank you Mark, Ying and cute Micah. Thank you for the awesome video. I love it when Ying interact with you and the Chef. Stay safe and take care to everyone 😍
