Ingredients

• 8 oz rice noodles
• 1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk
• 2 tablespoons red curry paste
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 small onion, sliced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 bell pepper, sliced (any color)
• 1 cup broccoli florets
• 1 medium carrot, julienned
• 1 cup snap peas
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• Fresh cilantro, for garnish
• Salt and pepper, to taste

How to Make Coconut Curry Noodles with Vegetables

1. Cook the rice noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
2. In a large pot or skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened.
3. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
4. Add the red curry paste to the pot, stirring to combine with the onions and garlic.
5. Pour in the coconut milk and stir well. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
6. Add the bell pepper, broccoli, carrot, and snap peas to the pot. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender yet still crisp.
7. Stir in the cooked rice noodles, soy sauce, and lime juice. Toss everything together until well combined and heated through. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
8. Remove from heat and garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.

Tips for the Best Results

• For a spicier kick, add more curry paste or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes.
• Make sure not to overcook the vegetables; they should remain vibrant and slightly crunchy.
• If using protein like chicken or shrimp, sauté them before adding the onions and garlic, cooking until fully cooked through.

Easy Variations

• Substitute the rice noodles with whole wheat noodles or quinoa for a healthier option.
• For a protein boost, add tofu, chickpeas, or cooked shrimp.
• Experiment with different vegetables such as zucchini, mushrooms, or spinach based on your preference or what you have on hand.

What to Serve With It

• A simple side salad with a light vinaigrette.
• Steamed jasmine rice or quinoa for extra heartiness.
• Fresh spring rolls for a light appetizer.
• A chilled coconut drink or iced tea for a refreshing complement.
