How to Make Coconut Curry Noodle Soup with Avocado

3. Add the red curry paste to the pot and cook for another minute, stirring to combine.
4. Pour in the coconut milk and vegetable broth, stirring well to incorporate the curry paste. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
5. Once simmering, add the rice noodles and cook according to package instructions, typically 5-7 minutes, until tender.
6. Stir in the soy sauce and lime juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
7. Remove the soup from the heat and ladle into bowls.
8. Top each bowl with sliced avocado, chopped cilantro, and basil. Serve with lime wedges on the side.

• Adjust the level of spiciness by adding more or less curry paste according to your preference.
• Fresh herbs are key to brightening the dish, so don’t skip them!

Easy Variations

• Swap rice noodles for whole wheat noodles or even zucchini noodles for a low-carb option.
• Add vegetables like bell peppers, carrots, or snap peas for extra crunch and nutrition.

• A simple side salad with lime vinaigrette.
• Crispy spring rolls for an appetizer.
• Coconut water or a light beer to complement the flavors.
