- For a vegetarian or vegan version, you can replace the chicken gravy with vegetable broth.
- Cut your potatoes into small, even pieces so they cook quickly and evenly.
- Soak the rice noodles in hot water before adding them to the soup to ensure they are tender and not overcooked.
- A splash of lime juice at the end brightens up the flavors and adds a refreshing finish.
- Garnish with fresh herbs like cilantro or Thai basil for an extra layer of flavor and a beautiful presentation.
