Thai Listening Exercise: Cooking Rice in Bamboo Tube in the Jungle

Monday August 14, 2023 by Mod Leave a Comment

My family and I hiked into the jungle last Saturday, we cookd rice in bamboo tubes for lunch using all natural matrials. I took this opportunity to create a mini vlog with Thai listening exercise for you to learn Thai. 

▪️Script from the video

มาดูวิธีหุงข้าวในกระบอกไม้ไผ่ค่ะ

/maa duu wí-tii hŭng kâao nai grà-bàwk máai-pài kâ/

Let’s learn how to cook rice in a bamboo tube.

มดกับครอบครัวเดินเข้าป่าไปกินข้าวเที่ยง

/Mod gàp krâwp-krua dern kâo bpàa bpai gin kâao-tîang/

My family and I went into the jungle for lunch.

เราเดิน 2 กิโลเมตร

/rao dern 2 gì-loo-mêet/

We walked for two kilometers.

เราตัดใบไม้มาทำเป็นเสื่อปูนั่งกินข้าว

/rao dtàt bai-máai maa tam bpen sùea bpuu nâng gin kâao/

We cut some leaves to make a mat for sitting.

ก่อนหุงข้าวเราล้างกระบอกไม้ไผ่กับใบไม้ที่จะใช้ห่อข้าว เรียกว่า “ใบเร็ด”

/gàwn hŭng kâao, rao láang grà-bàwk máai-pài gàp bai-máai tîi jà chái hàw kâao rîak-wâa “bai rét”/ Before cooking rice, we washed the bamboo tubes and the leaves that we will use to wrap rice which is called “Bai Ret”.

มาเริ่มหุงข้าวกันค่ะ

/maa rêrm hŭng kâao gan kâ/

Let’s start cooking rice.

ขั้นตอนที่ 1: ใส่ข้าวสาร 3 ช้อนโต๊ะในใบเร็ดแล้วก็ห่อค่ะ

/kân-dtawn tîi 1: sài kâao-săan 3 cháwn-dtó nai bai rét, láew-gâw hàw kâ/

Step 1: add 3 tablespoons of uncooked rice in the Ret leaf, and wrap it.

ห่อข้าวเสร็จแล้วก็เอาข้าว 2 ห่อใส่ในกระบอกไม้ไผ่

/hàw kâao sèt láew gâw ao kâao 2 hàw sài nai grà-bàwk máai-pài/

Once you finish wrapping rice, then put 2 wrapped leaves inside the tube.

ถึงตาเด็กๆลองทำดูบ้างค่ะ

/tŭeng dtaa dèk-dèk lawng tam duu bâang kâ/

Now it’s the kids’ turn to try it.

เป็นการเรียนรู้การใช้ชีวิตในธรรมชาติ

/bpen gaan rian-rúu gaan chái chii-wít nai tam-má-châat/

It is a lesson to live in nature.

ต่อไป ขั้นตอนที่ 2 : เติมน้ำลงในกระบอกไม้ไผ่ค่ะ

/dtàw-bpai, kân-dtawn tîi 2: dterm náam long nai grà-bàek máai-pài kâ/

Next, step 2: add water in the bamboo tube.

ขั้นตอนที่ 3 : เอากระบอกไม้ไผ่ไปตั้งไฟ

/kân-dtawn tîi 3: ao grà-bàwk máai-pài bpai dtâng fai/

Step 3: put the bamboo tubes next to the fire.

ใช้เวลาหุงข้าวประมาณ 30-40 นาทีค่ะ

/chái way-laa hŭng kâao bprà-maan 30-40 naa-tii kâ/

It takes about 30-40 minutes to cook rice.

ข้าวใกล้จะสุกแล้วค่ะ

/kâao glâi jà sùk láew kâ/

The rice is nearly cooked.

เทน้ำออกนิดนึง

/tay náam àwk nít-nueng/

Pour water away a little bit.

ตอนนี้ข้าวสุกแล้วค่ะ

/dtawn-níi kâao sùk láew kâ/

Now the rice is cooked.

ตัดกระบอกไม้ไผ่

/dtàt grà-bàwk máai-pài/

Cut the bamboo tube open.

แล้วก็เอาห่อข้าวออกมา

/láew-gâw ao kâao àwk maa/

And take out the rice package.

มาเปิดห่อดูข้าวค่ะ

/maa bpèrd hàw duu kâao kâ/

Let’s open the rice package.

ข้าวสวยมากๆ หอมมาก แล้วก็นุ่มมากค่ะ

/kâao sŭai mâak-mâak, hăwm mâak, láew-gâw nûm mâak kâ/

The rice looks good, it smells very nice and it is very soft.

คุณเคยกินข้าวในกระบอกไม้ไผ่มั้ยคะ

/kun keoi gin kâao nai grà-bàwk máai-pài mái ká/

Have you ever tried rice cooked in bamboo tube?
