Khow Suey is a Burmese (from Burma) noodle dish with an array of different contrasting toppings that takes this dish to the next level and give it a burst of amazing flavors. I had first seen this dish in masala tv and was highly impressed and tried it and we all loved it. This dish is made vegetarian also but i haven't tried it yet as i love my chicken version. It has 3 steps 1st is making of chicken gravy. 2nd is besan gravy and 3rd in boiling spegatti and assembling which done at the time of serving. This dish takes a bit of effort but its worth it.
