Myanmar Cold flat noodle salad/ Khauhswe toh



This is one of the many  typical Myanmar dishes.  We eat it for a meal or for an afternoon snack. It taste best with hot Jasmine tea or hot broth soup.
Everyone in my original family loves to eat this. Joshua loves it too. So, I taught him how to make this dish.
FYI- You can make quite a bit of fried garlic in oil and keep it in the fridge for many days.

Ingredients
  • 2 Cups cooked flat egg noodles
  • 1 teaspoon fish sauce- or more if you wish
  • 1 Tablespoon lime or lemon juice
  • 2 Tablespoons ground roasted peanuts
  • 1 Tablespoon chopped up fresh Cilantro 
  • 1/4 Cup cooking oil and 1 bulb garlic
  • 1/2 Teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1 Tablespoon fried garlic and oil (To make this slice garlic thinly and fry them till golden brown.  Add turmeric powder at the end).
Instruction
  • Put cooked cold noodles in bowl
  • Pile every thing else on top ( see picture)
  • Mix it all together adding more of fish sauce  and/or lime juice till you like the taste.
  • Enjoy
