Thai red curry noodles serving presentation 1

This is such a quick and easy dish to make and yet so versatile and packed full of flavour. You can substitute prawns for chicken and mix and match on the veggies as well, whatever way you do it you’re in for a treat! Using the quantities below this will easily serve 3 hungry people, but it also scales up easily and you don’t have to be exact about quantities. I like to use “straight to wok” or easy cook noodles, my personal preference is for the thicker Udon style noodle, but you can really go with whatever you prefer. I recommend to cook this no more than an hour or so before you plan to serve or the noodles swell too much if left to sit.

Ingredients for Thai red curry noodles

Ingredients.

One packet My Thai Curry red curry paste

500 g chicken breast

1 pack of noodles (2 x 150g pouches)

Red Onion

Tomato

Spring onion

Sweet red pepper

Lime

Bean sprouts

Coriander

Pak Choi if available.

One can of good quality coconut milk.

Prep the vegetables and slice the chicken breast. Boil some water, take off the boil and soak the noodles for around 2 minutes as this will stop them sticking together and also prevent them absorbing all the liquid when you add them to the soup. Pour the noodles into a strainer and leave to one side.

Prepped ingredients for Thai red curry noodle soup Sauté the red onion in the pan with a little vegetable oil until it turns translucent. 

Saute chopped onions Add the tomato and continue to sauté for a few minutes.

add chopped tomatoes and continue to cookAdd the chicken and the red curry paste to the pan and continue to cook for 4 or 5 minutes.

add chicken and curry paste and cook for five minutes Shake the can of coconut milk so that the contents are mixed before opening it. Add about half the contents to the pan, followed by 400 ml of water. You can vary these measurements depending on how thick you like your soup and what you have in the pan. However, don’t make it too thick, remember it’s a soup and not a curry! Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer.

add coconut milk and waterAdd the noodles and stir through for one minute and scatter the remaining ingredients over the top. That’s it!

add vegetables and noodles to the potServe up making sure that each person has a piece of lime to squeeze into the dish to adjust the taste.

Thai Red Curry Seafood with Pineapple

I love pineapple, but put it on my pizza at your own risk! In a curry, though, it’s a different story. In the method used here the pineapple soaks up the flavour of the curry while keeping a sweet centre. And if pineapple in savoury dishes still isn’t for you, simply leave it out.This is one of the easiest, quickest curries you can make, and it works beautifully with a bag of frozen mixed seafood. Let’s get cooking!

This is an incredibly simple dish to prepare. It can be made in minutes with fresh or frozen fish, the only caveat being to choose fish steaks instead of fish fillets if possible as they hold together better when cooking. Also, if using frozen fish allow it to defrost first.  You can also choose the level of spice you desire as our Green curry pastes comes with three different spice levels! I'm using the Bangkok Green curry paste which is a medium heat here but you can also check out the Mild...
