Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat 2 tbsp oil in a wide skillet over medium-high. Brown ground pork, breaking it apart, until no pink remains, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

  2. Step 2

    Add shrimp to the same skillet with another splash of oil. Sear 90 seconds per side without moving until edges curl and turn pink.

  3. Step 3

    Pour 1.5 cups water into the skillet. Stir in fish sauce and turmeric. Simmer 2 minutes to infuse, then add rice noodles.

  4. Step 4

    Gently toss noodles in the broth until they soften and absorb the liquid, about 2 minutes. Return pork to the skillet.

  5. Step 5

    Divide noodle mixture between bowls. Top with shrimp, crushed peanuts, and fresh herbs. Drizzle lime juice over the top.

Tools you’ll need
