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.

CHICKEN COCONUT CURRY SOUP - A.K.A. EASY MULLIGATAWNY!



Chicken Coconut Curry Soup - A.k.a. Easy Mulligatawny! image

This is my absolute favorite soup of all time. I've made it for friends and family from Europe to the Caribbean, haven't met anyone who could pass it up! This recipe is based on a soup I tried at an Indian restaurant in Montreal about 5 years back. It was soooo delicious and creamy. I have no idea how they made theirs, but my take is really, really close and super easy.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 1h

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 whole boneless skinless chicken breast, and cut into 1 inch cubes
3 cups potatoes, peeled and diced (about 5 medium sized potatoes)
2 cups carrots, peeled and diced (about 2 large or 3 medium carrots)
1 cup onion, peeled and diced (about 1 large onion)
3 tablespoons curry powder
2 tablespoons freshly grated gingerroot
2 tablespoons freshly grated garlic
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 chicken stock cubes
2 liters water
1 (15 ounce) can coconut milk
1 teaspoon salt (adjust according to taste)
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper (adjust according to taste)

Steps:

  • In a large pot add water, chicken stock cubes, salt pepper. Bring to a boil.
  • Add chicken, reduce to medium heat. Let simmer about 10 minutes.
  • Add potatoes, carrots, onions. Let simmer about 20 minutes.
  • Add curry powder, ginger, garlic, salt & pepper. Reduce to low heat. Let simmer about 10 minutes.
  • Once the potatoes are fully tender, remove from heat and add coconut milk.
  • Puree with hand blender.
  • Serve with Basmati rice and enjoy!
  • *** Notes: 1. Try not to substitute the fresh ginger or garlic for powdered or paste. This will really alter the overall taste (and not in a good way.). 2. Shake the can of coconut milk before using. Most of the coconut flavor is in the bits that settle at the bottom of the can. 3. You can add chilli powder to make this spicier. It really depends on how hot the curry powder you use is. I usually use a blend of very hot Madras curry powder and very mild Caribbean curry powder.

Categories     Thai

Time 40m

Yield 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 (12 ounce) cans coconut milk
2 tablespoons Thai curry paste
1 bunch cilantro
3 chicken breasts, thinly sliced
4 cups chicken broth
2 carrots, shredded
4 -5 fresh lime leaves
2 stalks lemongrass, halved lengthwise, woody leaves removed
2 tablespoons fish sauce
2 limes
1 cup ginger
1 bean sprouts
4 ounces rice noodles
1 bunch cilantro leaf, rinsed well
2 -3 green onions, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Preparation.
  • Approximate time: 10 mins.
  • Cut the stems off the cilantro. Chop into small pieces and set aside. Wash the leaves. Set aside 80% of the leaves which will later be added to the soup. The other 20% you can set aside for a garnish. Cut the chicken into thin slices that will cook easily. About 2 by 1 (inches). Set aside.
  • Take the hard exterior off the lemon grass. Cut it once lengthwise. (Do not cut it into small pieces as you will be removing these before serving). Set aside.
  • Grate the outside of your two limes and save the zest for later. Roll the limes with the palm of your hands to loosen the juices. Squeeze into a bowl and save for later. Also save the lime leaves if you have them (these are often hard to find).
  • Grate the frozen ginger and set aside.
  • Julienne the carrots into thin slices. See a one minute tutorial here. Or if you have a spiralizer you are also use that.
  • Now that you've prepare all your ingredients, you will find the actual cooking part much less stressful!
  • Tips For Trying New Recipes:.
  • Read the recipe ALL the way through before starting.
  • We craft our recipes with PREP first because it's easier for you but most recipes don't come that way. You do NOT want to be reading the recipe for the first time while you cook because often the steps are not sequential. Steps that require the most preparation time can sneak up on you . This is especially inconvenient when your attention needs to be on timing things if you have already started cooking.
  • Your goal is to mimic a cooking show and have all those little bowls with the ingredients pre-measured, vegetables pre-washed, chopped, and ready to go. This will make it easier to focus on the timing and when to add which ingredients. Not to mention it makes keeping your kitchen clean a breeze.
  • The golden rule: everything that can be done beforehand, should be.
  • Instructions.
  • A can of coconut milk has a top layer of cream and a bottom layer of liquid. Scoop the thick coconut cream from the top of just one of the cans into a large stockpot set over a medium-high heat. Melt the cream, add the curry paste and stir for a few minutes until they begin to sizzle.
  • Add the cilantro roots and chicken and sauté until the chicken is cooked through, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the coconut juice from the first can and all the contents of the second and third cans along with the chicken broth, carrot, lime leaves, lemon grass, fish sauce, ginger, and lime zest and juice. Simmer for 20 minutes or so.
  • Stir in the bean sprouts. Add the rice noodles, gently pushing them beneath the surface of the broth. Turn off the heat and let stand until the noodles soften, about 3-5 minutes. Rice noodles just need to soak in the hot water (no cooking required) but you don't want to over cook them so keep an eye on them and use your judgement.
  • Stir in most of the cilantro leaves. Scoop out the lemon grass stalks. Taste and season with a touch more salt (or soy sauce) as needed. Ladle into large bowls and garnish with the green onions and remaining cilantro leaves. Add Sriracha for extra spice.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will give your soup a more complex flavor and texture. Some good choices include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and peas.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices. Curry powder is a good starting point, but you can also add cumin, coriander, turmeric, and ginger to taste.
  • Use fresh coconut milk. This will give your soup a richer, more authentic flavor. If you can't find fresh coconut milk, you can use canned coconut milk, but be sure to look for a brand that is unsweetened.
  • Simmer the soup for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Serve the soup with rice or naan bread. This will help to soak up the delicious broth.

Conclusion:

Coconut curry soup is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and healthy meal. With its creamy texture, rich flavor, and variety of vegetables, this soup is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new soup recipe to try, give coconut curry soup a try. You won't be disappointed!
