Tip:
– Can’t find the finger roots? Replace it with a very young and small amount of ginger. Peel and blend until it becomes a smooth paste.
-This recipe inspired by an authentic “Khanom-Jeen -Nam-Ya” AKA the hand squeeze rice noodles with Fish Curry sauce. However, I couldn’t find any hand squeeze rice noodles. Hence, I use spaghetti which has very much similar shape instead.
