The OG Thai Noodle Soup

This noodle soup is the poster child of Thai street food - guay tiew look chin pla ก๋วยเตี๋ยวลูกชิ้นปลา. It is the classic clear broth noodle soup you can find all over Thailand, and it's easy to make at home!

*Pine Brand rice noodles are now available in Thailand and Australia, with other countries soon to follow.

I'm a new sub, because when you said "if life's been hard on you, this is the soup..." I legit felt so touched 😭. Thank you Pailin. I am so happy to join Hot Thai Kitchen family and can't wait to catch up! I'm so glad to have found you!

[muriaal]

I like how you format your recipes. The ingredients under each step that requires them is so thoughtful!

Thank you for including the fish balls tutorial which was most informative. You've given me newfound confidence selecting frozen prepared seafood from my local Asian grocery store.

[sarathurston]

Our nearest Asian supermarket is 25 miles away, and every time I watch your videos I discover that I need something else. LOL. Now I’m going to check out the fish/pork etc ball department and the preserved cabbage! This recipe looks good!

My mother (Tuptim) rocks this dish. This was by far one of my favorite dishes she made for me as a child.

last time in Thailand i found a street food vendor who made awesome guay tiew nam gui, for an extra 5TB she made it with Mama noodles, i ate there every day, a full spoon of chilli flakes made the perfect breakfast for me, i have been to Thailand 22 times so far, it took me a long time to get used to the spices, but now i can enjoy many spicy dishes including Tom yung and red curry

Love your videos Pailin! Made the pad thai the other day, everyone loved it.

I have to make this. My last try at making pork broth was tonkotsu broth and that was a two day process. I'll take a two hour one over that.

I just got back from 2 months in Thailand, and I've never eaten so much soup in my life (or so much fish). Most of them looked like slight variants of this, as you've said many times "just use what you have".

Despite eating way more than I do at home I somehow managed to lose 6kg, so I guess it must be healthy too!

I cook Japanese ramen but I’ve always been fascinated by those exotic South East Asian noodle dishes equally to ramen. Your noodle recipe inspires me a lot. Thanks, Pailin!

Finally the OG bowl. Enjoyed on the street at midnight after the bar…perfect

[uyenthucthuyquach]

I enjoy watching your videos just to watch you cook some complex dishes that I would never dare to try.
THIS recipe and video however is different. I will definitely make this!

[PeacefulHooligan]

Over the last few months I've made a number of your dishes and am so grateful as it takes us straight back to Thailand.

[Becausing]

WOAH! Just had a flashback to eating a version of this at my childhood friends’ house. The Yacharns were my first introduction to Thai food. 🥰

[rcmpa]

It looks wonderful, Pai! I'm looking forward to making Thai noodle soup! Your videos are always so informative, thorough, approachable, and fun! Ron

[closedeyesopenmind]

Ah - love it! Used to walk around the block to get this religiously

[timstanton]

Recipe saved. Off topic, I bought a Zojirushi rice cooker and set it up to play the tune at startup and finish. It makes me laugh thinking of your great show every time. Never mind the perfect rice or the retractable cord. The pleasure of the musical notes and smiles are worth the price paid. Best to you and crew for a great show!

[Majorjabroni]

Pho broth from my local pho place gets me through illness every time but i cannot make it when im sick. This is a lot easier!

[suga_]

This was my favorite thing to have during lunch when I was in school, I would sprinkle way too much chill flakes tho (my spice tolerance was insane). Thank you for sharing this recipe, I can’t wait to go back home and have this.

[lindachan]

Thank you Pailin. My daughter will love this!!! And I love your videos... You are so funny and adorable😁
