Spicy Coconut Milk Noodles Recipes

Steps:

• Place noodles in a bowl and cover with boiling water. Leave to stand.
• Heat oil in a wok and gently fry the onion, chilli, garlic, coriander, ginger, tumeric and lemongrass for 5 minutes.
• Pour coconut milk and stock into the wok and just bring to the boil. Turn down heat and add the vegetables and drained noodles.
• Cover and simmer for 5 minutes.
• Add the peanuts and serve.

Steps:

• If using rice noodles, soak them in very hot water to cover until ready to add to stir-fry in Step 4. If using linguine, bring a large pot of water to a boil, salt it, and cook pasta until it is nearly but not quite done. Drain, and rinse in cold water.
• Meanwhile, place 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet or wok; turn heat to high. A minute later, add meat, and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 5 minutes. Remove with slotted spoon; set aside.
• Add another tablespoon of the oil to skillet, followed by bell pepper and eggplant. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until both are browned and tender, about 10 minutes. Remove with slotted spoon; combine with meat.
• Add remaining tablespoon of oil, followed immediately by the garlic and about 30 seconds later, the coconut milk. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring and scraping with a wooden spoon, for about a minute. Add drained noodles along with meat and vegetables, and cook until noodles absorb most of the coconut milk, about 3 minutes.
• Season with nam pla to taste, then add plenty of black pepper. Garnish with cilantro, and serve.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook until al dente, about 6 minutes. Drain well. Divide among 4 serving bowls.
• Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat in a large saucepan. Add the mushrooms, snow peas, onion, ginger and garlic; cook, stirring frequently, until golden, about 2 minutes; divide among the bowls.
• Return the same saucepan to the heat and stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, the curry paste, curry powder and turmeric and cook for 30 seconds. Stir in the chicken broth, bring to a boil and cook for 3 minutes. Stir in the coconut milk, fish sauce and sugar. Return to a boil and cook for 5 minutes. Stir in the chicken and cook until heated through. Season with salt. Ladle the soup over the vegetables and noodles. Serve with lime wedges, jalapenos, cilantro and basil.

Steps:

• Heat a saucepan, then fry the curry paste for 1 min. Add the coconut milk and half a can of water, then bring to the boil. Simmer for 5 mins until slightly thickened.
• Throw in the mushrooms and simmer for another 2 mins. Stir in the drained noodles, beansprouts and most of the chilli and spring onions, then heat for another min. Serve in deep bowls, scattered with the rest of the chilli and onions.
