🇹🇭 Thailand recipe

Khao Soi

The crown jewel of northern Thai cuisine, Khao Soi is a rich coconut curry noodle soup believed to have Burmese and Yunnanese origins. A complex, spice-laden curry broth bathes soft egg noodles and tender braised chicken, topped with crispy fried noodles for a stunning textural contrast.
