Originating from Southeast Asia, Khao Suey consists of a savoury bed of noodles doused with creamy yoghurt curry, spicy chicken curry, hard-boiled eggs, and a garnish of fresh vegetables. This hearty, one-dish meal is an excellent option for feeding a crowd since the toppings can be individualised according to each person's preference. Sample toppings include diced onions, sprigs of cilantro, roasted garlic, or even a drizzle of lime juice! For added crunch, top your Khao Suey with lightly toasted and baked croutons.
