Directions to make Cambodian Rice noodle with Rhizome Roots
- Do cook the noodle according to the package direction. When the noodle is done drain and rinse with cold water.
- To separate noodle into individual bunches soak noodle in cold water while handling and piece bunched noodle into a basket for proper drainage. If the noodle is not properly drained it will be mushy.
- In a big pot put 2 to 3 quarts ( 12 cups) of water to boil then add chicken or fish paste with kroung to the pot (sometime I use the broth that I boil fish or chicken to add in this soup for flavor so don’t through away cooked chicken broth.) Do adjust water and chicken broth.
- Now add prahok (fermented fish), fish sauce, or salt, coconut milk, Knorr chicken powder and sugar to your taste and if you like add MSG to it.
- Adjust the flavor to your taste. Turn the heat off or down to low if you are serving.
- When ready to serve take one or two bunches of the noodle put in a large bowl then add the soup broth to the noodle top with vegetables and salt, sugar or chilies mix well and serve.
Note: when you serve this noodle make sure your soup broth is on low heat so the soup is warm.
Thank you and enjoy it.
