Vegetables can be substituted for the meat to make a vegetarian version.

Here, the chef makes the vegetarian version of this dish by adding carrots, cauliflower, zucchini etc. Chef adds a special paste to this soup which enhances its flavour. 

Khow Suey with its mélange of flavours and textures is a soul satisfying food.
