Ingredients

  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 tablespoon yellow thai curry paste more or less depending on the strength of the paste.
  • 1 tablespoon light soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoon peanut butter
  • 400 ml coconut milk
  • 400 ml chicken or fish broth
  • 200 g shrimps
  • 300 g fresh noodles udon or ramen

For garnish

  • Mangetouts
  • Cilantro coriander
  • Sesame seeds
  • Chili oil
  • Lime wedges

Instructions

  • Place a saucepan on medium heat and drizzle with oil. Add in the garlic followed by yellow curry paste, soy sauce, and peanut butter. Stir fry for a couple of minutes.
  • Add in the coconut milk and chicken stock. Bring to the boil, then reduce to simmer for 5 minutes until the sauce thickens and reduces slightly. Taste and season accordingly with more curry paste, peanut butter, sugar for sweetness, or salt for seasoning!
  • Pour your shrimp into the broth and give it a stir (you want the shrimps to cook for 3-5 minutes until pink or based on their packet instructions so bear that in mind!).
  • Next up, add in the fresh udon noodles (or your noodles of choice), and leave the noodle soup to simmer until the noodles are cooked according to packet instructions.
  • Divide your shrimp with ramen noodles between two bowls. Top with mangetouts, cilantro, lime wedges, sesame seeds, and chili oil. You could also serve it with a jammy egg! Now slurp away and enjoy!!
