    A dish of pork, shrimp, noodles and broth

    Kuy Teav a pork and seafood noodle soup is flavorful and very common in Cambodia, each family having their own special recipe for it. It is also found in many street stalls as well as restaurants. The broth is typically made from pork bones with dried shrimp or squid, and is mild.  The types of meats and seafood used is typically based on what is available but could include pork belly, minced beef or pork, even duck or offal. The combinations are endless.A picture of Camboidan soup called Kuy Teav. Shrimp, pork, hardboiled eggs, glass noodles, cilantro, bean sprouts wth broth in the background .

    It is believed to have originated from Chinese immigrants living in Cambodia. Cambodians proudly claim this unique soup as their own, and for good reason, it is simply delicious how the flavors all come together in the end. The dish is often consumed for breakfast and most street vendors will be sold out by noon,  but you can be enjoy it for any meal of the day.

    The Khmer name  Kuy Teav stems from the Chinese meaning cut rice noodle.  The noodle is made from the long grain rice flour vs the glutinous rice rice flour. Are you wondering how to say it?  It is pronounced Koo-e Teev

    Kuy Teav is also served with condiments to be added to your liking.  In Cambodia it will certainly include lime, Kampot pepper, and garlic.  Additionally it is served with an array of herbs like cilantro, basil or other types of greens.  Bean sprouts and hard boiled eggs are also a lovely addition. For heat add some chilies or a chili paste for a perfect balance of flavors.

    This dish can be served hot with a broth, or it is loved cool and dry on a very hot day.  This dish is a big reason why we added Cambodia to our travel itinerary.  We fell in love with it and I am sure you will too!
