kuy teav Phnom Penh

Cambodia · Southeast Asia

Short description: This noodle soup layers clear broth, thin rice noodles, meat, seafood, herbs, and bright garnishes in one bowl.
Ingredients: Rice noodles in pork broth with minced pork, pork slices, shrimp or squid, garlic, bean sprouts, scallions, cilantro, and lime.
Cultural note: It is especially associated with morning street stalls, where diners season the bowl with lime, chile, or sauces.
Common misconception: It is not the same as pho; the broth, toppings, and seasoning style follow a different noodle-soup tradition.
