Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 7 ounces (198 grams) rice noodles
- 1 (15-ounce/425 grams) can coconut milk
- 2 cups (480 milliliters) vegetable broth
Spices and Aromatics:
- 1 tablespoon curry powder
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
- 1-inch chunk ginger, grated
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 fresh serrano chile, finely chopped
Finishing and Seasoning:
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- Juice of 1 lime
- 2 teaspoons honey
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro (for garnish)
Instructions
- Awaken the aromatic foundation by gently sizzling ginger, garlic, and chile in heated oil over medium flame for precisely 60 seconds, ensuring constant movement to prevent burning.
- Introduce a vibrant spice symphony by incorporating curry powder, chili powder, and turmeric, stirring rapidly to activate their intense flavor profiles for an additional minute.
- Create a luxurious liquid base by pouring coconut milk and vegetable broth into the seasoned mixture, whisking thoroughly to integrate all elements. Allow the liquid to gently simmer for 5 minutes, enabling the spices to harmonize and develop depth.
- Simultaneously prepare rice noodles according to package guidelines, ensuring they reach the perfect tender-yet-firm consistency.
- Elevate the dish’s complexity by drizzling fresh lime juice and honey into the simmering broth, balancing sweet, tangy, and savory notes. Calibrate seasoning with salt and pepper to personal preference.
- Carefully fold the perfectly cooked rice noodles into the fragrant broth, allowing them to absorb the rich, spiced liquid and become fully integrated.
- Complete the culinary experience by scattering fresh, vibrant cilantro across the surface, creating a visually appealing and aromatic final touch. Serve immediately while piping hot.
Notes
- Adjust the amount of chile and chili powder to create a milder or more intense heat that suits your taste preferences.
- Experiment with different types of noodles like soba, udon, or gluten-free options to accommodate dietary needs or personal preferences.
- Enhance the dish by adding tofu, shredded chicken, or shrimp for extra protein and depth of flavor.
- Use full-fat coconut milk for a richer, more luxurious curry sauce that coats the noodles beautifully.
