Steps:
- In a large saucepan, bring the coconut milk, chicken broth and curry paste to a boil over medium-high heat, whisking until smooth, about 2 minutes. Add the carrot, red pepper, onion, corn, chile, basil, lime leaves and fish sauce. Bring to a simmer, cover the pan and cook for 30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
- Add the shrimp, snap peas and half of the noodles (reserve the remaining noodles for frying). Simmer, uncovered, until the shrimp are cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove and discard the lime leaves and basil sprigs.
- Pour the canola oil into a large, wide saucepan fitted with a deep-fry thermometer. Heat the oil to 350 degrees F. Add the reserved noodles and fry them until crispy, about 20 seconds. Drain on paper towels.
- Ladle the curry into four bowls. Garnish with cilantro and peanuts and serve.
CREAMY COCONUT THAI CURRY
A beautifully creamy curry, this dish is incredibly easy to prepare. It can be made in advance and left to marinade for a deeper flavour, or eaten immediately if you can't resist the smells eminating from the kitchen! The version below is fairly mild, but if you prefer it a little hotter, just add more chilli to taste. Kafir lime leaves are available from most large supermarkets these days. If you can't get them fresh, you may find them dried, or jarred.
