CURRIED CHICKEN COCONUT NOODLE SOUP



Curried Chicken Coconut Noodle Soup image

Categories     Soup/Stew     Chicken     Ginger     Pasta     Coconut     Curry     Winter     Lemongrass     Cilantro     Gourmet

Yield Serves 4 as a main dish and 8 as a first course

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 tablespoons curry powder
3 cups chicken broth
two 14-ounce cans unsweetened coconut milk*
1 cup water
2 stalks of lemongrass*, the outer leaves discarded, ends trimmed, and 5 inches of the lower stalks minced
ten 1/8-inch-thick slices of peeled fresh gingerroot
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
1 whole chicken breast with skin and bones (about 1 pound)
1/2 pound dried rice-stick noodles* (rice vermicelli)
6 tablespoons fresh lime juice
6 tablespoons Asian fish sauce such as nuoc mam*
1/3 cup chopped fresh coriander
Asian chili oil* to taste if desired
*available at Asian markets and some specialty produce markets

Steps:

  • In a heavy saucepan cook the garlic in the vegetable oil over moderately low heat, stirring, until it is fragrant, add the curry powder, and cook the mixture, stirring, for 30 seconds. Stir in the broth, the coconut milk, the water, the lemongrass, the gingerroot, and the peppercorns and bring the mixture to a boil. Add the chicken and poach it at a bare simmer for 20 minutes, or until it is cooked through. Transfer the chicken with a slotted spoon to a bowl and let it cool, keeping the poaching mixture warm.
  • While the chicken is cooling, in a large bowl soak the noodles in warm water to cover for 5 minutes, drain them, and in a large saucepan of salted boiling water cook them for 5 minutes. Drain the noodles in a colander, rinse them under cold water, and drain them well.
  • Discard the skin and bones from the chicken, shred the meat, and stir it into the poaching mixture with the lime juice and the fish sauce. Cook the soup over moderate heat, stirring, until it is hot, divide the noodles among 6 to 8 bowls, and ladle the soup over them. Sprinkle the soup with the coriander and drizzle it with the chili oil.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling during the cooking process.
  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your soup the best flavor. If possible, try to use organic ingredients, as they are often more flavorful and nutritious.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: When adding the chicken and vegetables to the pot, make sure you don't overcrowd it. This will prevent the ingredients from cooking evenly.
  • Simmer, don't boil: Once the soup is brought to a boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to develop and meld together.
  • Season to taste: Before serving, taste the soup and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or lemongrass, depending on your preference.

Conclusion:

Curried lemongrass chicken noodle soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. The combination of curry, lemongrass, and chicken creates a flavorful and aromatic broth that is sure to warm you up. Serve the soup with rice or noodles, and enjoy!
