Khao poon (Lao: ເຂົ້າປຸ້ນ; also known as Laotian laksa and sometimes spelled khao bune or khao pun) is a popular type of spicy Laotian rice vermicelli soup from Laos that has spread to Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore, and the United States. It is a long-simmered soup most often made with pounded chicken, fish, or pork and seasoned with common Laotian ingredients such as fish sauce, lime leaves, galangal, garlic, shallots, and Laotian chillies. Two common versions of khao poon exist: khao poon nam phik (with coconut milk) and khao poon nam jaew (without coconut milk). Khao poon is typically made with rice vermicelli noodles ("sen khao poon"), but rice stick noodles can also be used. It is served with an assortment of shredded cabbage, carrots, and banana blossom along with bean sprouts, fresh mint, cilantro, lime, and dried red chillies.

Now keep in mind as I always say in all my videos. Everyone cooks/makes recipes differently by altering adding/removing things they like/dislike.

Optional toppings: Purple banana leaves, cilantro, green onions

Thanks for watch and Enjoy!

  • When I make Kow Poon i just crush up the dry thai peppers a few and put it in with the curry when I fry it that makes it spicy and also I use shrimp paste to add flavor

  • @mimilee100 for myself....to make it more spicy i use thai chili peppers and if you fry the curry more it makes it more spicy that way too.

  • @unspokensinz I just had some today. Tried out your recipe because I tend to like to make it different every time. Meatball with it taste really good if you are a fan lol they tend to disappear first every time we make kapoon with meatballs.

  • @lakorns really? Meatballs? I've got to try that next time. :)

  • @lakorns I forgot to add, I add in meatballs too.
