Instructions
 

  • Prepare the noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  • In a saucepan or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion, garlic, and ginger. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent.
  • Stir in the curry paste (and optional curry powder). Cook for 1 minute, allowing the spices to release their aromas.
  • Add the coconut milk, broth, fish sauce (or soy sauce), and brown sugar. Stir to combine. Reduce the heat to medium and let it simmer for about 5 minutes.
  • Add the vegetables and protein of choice. Simmer until cooked through—about 5–7 minutes.

  • Add the drained noodles and toss gently to coat them in the curry sauce.
  • Divide into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro, sliced chilies, and lime wedges. Serve immediately.

Notes

Adjust spice levels by varying the amount of curry paste. Use low-sodium broth or coconut milk to better control saltiness. For a thinner consistency, add extra broth.
