Khao Soi (thai coconut noodle soup
Khao soi is a Chin Haw cuisine that is popular in Laos and northern Thailand. The name translates to ‘cut rice,’ however it is probable that it is of the Burmese term for noodles “khao swè” which might explain the variances. The huge sheet noodle is rolled and sliced with scissors after being steamed. Traditional lao khao soi is cooked with hand-sliced rice noodles in a clear soup broth and topped with minced pork and tomato sauce. Vendors still manually cut the noodles in several marketplaces in Luang Namtha and Muang Sing. These traditionally sliced noodles are also available in numerous locations around northern Thailand.
Authentic Ingredients
One of the key elements of Khao Soi is the fragrant curry paste that forms the base of the dish.
