Nam-ngew is the local food in the northern thailand. It is famous for the person who love noodles with hot and spicy. It teste a little bit spicy . It is also the original recipe of northern Thailand;northern style red soup noodles

 

Northern Thai dishes are the most elusive regional cuisine in Bangkok. Most people are only familiar with khao soi, a curry-based noodle dish. Sure, it’s incredibly tasty and deservedly popular. But we recommend switching things up once in a while to give northern Thailand’s lesser known noodle export a try: khanom jeen nam ngiaw.

A dish typically served alongside the popular khao soi at northern Thai noodle stalls, nam ngiaw most likely has its origins in the Shan communities of northern Thailand (ngiaw is a somewhat derogatory term used to refer to the Shan), where it takes the form of a watery, slightly tart broth served over the eponymous khanom jeen, a variety of freshly made rice noodle. Over time, northern Thais beefed up the spice paste and added more meat, resulting in a heartier dish that is sometimes likened to a Thai-style bolognese.

The broth is made by simmering pork (or sometimes beef) in a mixture that includes a spice paste, dried herbs and halved cherry tomatoes. The meat, which can range from minced pork to chopped spareribs, combines with the spice paste to form a rich, meaty and often rather oily stew. The tomatoes provide a counterpart of acidity, and the broth is served over the noodles and supplemented with cubes of blood, topped with a generous amount of deep-fried crispy garlic and accompanied by sides of pickled mustard green, thinly sliced cabbage, bean sprouts, lime and dried chilies, deep-fried until crispy.
