Burmese cuisine

Burmese cuisine includes dishes from various regions of the South-East Asian country of Burma (now officially known as Myanmar). Owing to the geographic location of Myanmar, Burmese cuisine has been influenced by China, India and Thailand.
Burmese cuisine is characterized by extensive use of fish products like fish sauce and ngapi, so Seafood is a common ingredient.
In Burmese cuisine, Khow Suey, is a noodle dish that comes from the mountainous Shan State. It is a one-dish soup meal made of egg noodles and curried beef or chicken with coconut milk, served with a variety of contrasting condiments. A squeeze of lemon also adds tanginess to Khow Suey.
