Ingredients

4 servings
Coconut milk2 cans (13.5 oz each)
Palm oil2 tbsp for frying
Shallot3 medium
Garlic4 cloves

Method

1

Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Cook egg noodles according to package directions. Divide cooked noodles in half: reserve one half for the curry, and spread the other half on paper towels to dry for frying.

2

Mince garlic and ginger. Thinly slice shallots. Cube or shred chicken breast. Prepare mustard greens and lime wedges.

3

Heat 2 tbsp palm oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and ginger, sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

4

Stir in red curry paste and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until darkened and fragrant.

5

Pour in canned coconut milk and vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer and add cubed chicken. Simmer for 15 minutes until chicken is cooked through.

6

Stir in fish sauce and lime juice. Taste and adjust seasoning. Remove from heat and keep warm.

7

Heat 2 tbsp palm oil in a separate skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, fry the dried noodles until golden and crispy, about 2–3 minutes per batch. Transfer to paper towels to drain.

8

Divide soft cooked noodles among four bowls. Ladle curry broth and chicken over each portion.

9

Top each bowl with a generous handful of crispy fried noodles, sliced shallots, pickled mustard greens, and a lime wedge on the side.
