Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use full-fat coconut milk instead of light coconut milk.
  • If you don’t have Thai red curry paste, you can substitute with a combination of red pepper flakes and curry powder to taste.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; reheat gently to avoid breaking down the noodles.
