Ingredients
  

  • Fresh noodles about 200g (7 oz) – the fresher, the better!
  • Creamy coconut milk roughly 400ml (13.5 fl oz) – the backbone of our dish.
  • Good old vegetable broth about 500ml (17 fl oz).
  • Tofu cubed (firm is best!): 200g (7 oz).
  • Bean sprouts: 100g 3.5 oz – for that satisfying crunch.
  • A red bell pepper sliced thin.
  • Green beans snipped: 100g (3.5 oz).
  • Your favorite red curry paste: 2 good dollops.
  • Fresh ginger grated: 1 spoonful.
  • Few cloves of garlic minced – because what’s cooking without garlic?
  • Soy sauce to taste.
  • A lime squeezed.
  • Fresh herbs like cilantro & mint for garnishing.
  • Red chili if you dare – sliced thin!

Method
 

  1. Grab a pot, warm it up on medium.
  2. Toss in ginger & garlic – make it sizzle until it smells divine.
  3. Now, that red curry paste? In it goes! Cook it for a couple of minutes.
  4. Time for the veggie broth. Let it bubble gently.
  5. Coconut milk’s turn! Pour and stir.
  6. Drizzle soy sauce, lime juice, and toss in tofu.
  7. Let it all mingle and become friends for about 15 minutes.
  8. Got those noodles ready? Follow the pack, they know best.
  9. Veggies in! Peppers, green beans, let them soak up that vegetarian laksa goodness.
  10. Noodles in bowls, ladle that rich soup over.
  11. Garnish? Oh yes! Cilantro, mint, sprouts and a touch of chili if you’re brave!

Notes

TIPS
More spice in your vegetarian laksa? Just add a tad more curry paste or some chilies.
Bok choy or mushrooms? Toss ’em in if you fancy.
Longer simmer = richer flavor. But keep an eye; don’t let it turn to sludge.
HOW TO CHOW DOWN
Serve steaming hot, right out of the pot.
Got some crusty bread or spring rolls? Perfect sidekick.
Use a fork and spoon, and get ready for a vegetarian laksa journey!
