Method

  1. Heat a glug of oil in a large saucepan over a medium heat. Fry the onions for 5-8 minutes until softening. Add the curry paste and broccoli, then stir-fry for 2-3 minutes. Pour in the stock and bring to a fast simmer, then cook for 5 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, boil a kettleful of water. Put the noodles in a large heatproof bowl, then pour over the boiling water. Leave to stand for 6-8 minutes until tender, then drain in a colander. Boil another kettleful of water, then pour over the noodles to rinse and refresh. Drain well.
  3. Add the fish sauce, lime juice, coconut milk and prawns to the soup. Simmer for 4-5 minutes until the veg is tender and the prawns are cooked through. Stir the noodles into the soup.
  4. Serve the soup garnished with lime wedges, sriracha chilli sauce, coriander, peanuts and sliced green chilli, if you like.

  1. Instead of the usual Thai green curry, we’ve created this flavour-packed soup instead. We’ve made it quick to prepare by using ready-made curry paste.
