khao soi gai

Khao soi gai is a northern Thai noodle soup with chicken, egg noodles and a coconut-milk curry broth. Boiled noodles form the base of the bowl, while fried noodles give it a crisp topping. Pickled mustard greens, shallots and lime are served alongside; fried chilli flakes can add more heat.[1]

Pailin Chongchitnant’s chicken version uses drumsticks simmered in coconut milk with a paste of dried chillies, ginger, turmeric, shallots, black cardamom and coriander seeds. Soy sauce, black soy sauce and sugar season the broth, with fish sauce optional for adjustment. The cooked noodles and chicken are assembled in bowls before the fried noodles are added.[1]
