Pork Thukpa
Hearty, flavorful, and deeply satisfying, Pork Thukpa is a comforting Himalayan noodle soup that combines tender pork, fresh vegetables, and soft noodles in a warm, aromatic broth — perfect for chilly evenings or when you crave something wholesome and soothing.

Originating from Tibetan and Himalayan kitchens and loved across Nepal, this rustic noodle soup starts with a savory clear broth made from pork bones or seasoned stock, simmered with garlic, ginger, onions, and mild spices that infuse the soup with rich, warming depth.

Tender slices or chunks of pork — often slightly fatty for extra flavor — are cooked until juicy and melt-in-your-mouth tender. Crisp seasonal vegetables like cabbage, carrots, green beans, capsicum, and spring onions add freshness and crunch, balancing the rich pork beautifully.

The hearty wheat noodles are cooked just right — soft yet springy — and soak up the aromatic broth while adding satisfying texture to every spoonful. A dash of soy sauce, green chilies, or a sprinkle of timur (Sichuan pepper) can bring mild heat and a subtle citrusy kick, while fresh coriander and a squeeze of lime brighten the bowl just before serving.

Served steaming hot, Pork Thukpa is a hearty, nourishing meal that warms you from the inside out — a beloved comfort food that’s as satisfying as it is full of soul.
