ASIAN COMFORT FOOD (COCONUT-CURRY CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP)



Asian Comfort Food (Coconut-Curry Chicken Noodle Soup) image

Chicken is the favoured meat of choice for most Asian soups & a simple, but rich stock is key to success. This curried soup combines them with coconut milk plus simple ingredients & an easy prep to create a tasty soup course (or 1-dish meal at your option). To allow for health issues & pers pref(s), no salt or soy sauce is added to the soup, but soy sauce is served at the table for individual use. The amt of curry paste also allows for pers pref(s). (Times do not include time for meat & stock to cool separately) - Edited to Add: This recipe owes its connection to the featured countries of ZWT-9 to the use of coconut milk which I found to be common to all the countries plus the Thai curry paste ingredient.

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 whole chicken (rinsed well & cut in usual pieces)
2 (14 ounce) cans coconut milk
1/4-1/2 cup Thai curry paste (may use red or green, may sub curry powder as needed)
4 carrots (scraped or peeled & cut in 1/4 inch coins)
4 white onions (coarsely cut in bite-size pieces)
4 ounces snow peas (optional add to soup)
8 ounces rice noodles
1/4 cup cilantro (coarsely chopped for garnish, may use chopped parsley or sliced green onion)

  • While soup is in final cooking stage, prepare rice noodles per package directions, drain well, rinse and set aside.

COCONUT CURRY CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP



Coconut Curry Chicken Noodle Soup image

This sweet, spicy and fragrant chicken soup, called curry mee, is a happy contrast of hot broth, springy noodles and a madness of garnishes. Coconut milk has a particular weighty creaminess, called lemak, that can make some curries and soups too rich. Here, a combination of coconut milk and half-and-half is used to balance the broth.

COCONUT CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP WITH THAI FLAVORS



Coconut Chicken Noodle Soup With Thai Flavors image

This is a modified version of a recipe I saw on delish.com, which cites Food & Wine as the original source. I made it a one dish recipe for easier clean-up and adapted it to what we usually have on hand. I like to use noodles I pick up at the local Asian market, but the original recipe called for egg fettucine, so you could easily sub that in if you can't find them. If you do use the fettucine, you will want to cook in a separate pot for 12 minutes and add them with the lime juice and cilantro at the end.
