How to Make Thai Red Curry Noodle Soup
Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onions, red bell pepper, and carrots. Sauté until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in garlic, ginger, and red curry paste. Cook for about 1 minute until fragrant, stirring frequently.
Pour in chicken broth, coconut milk, and fish sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Bring the mixture to a simmer. Cook uncovered for 5 minutes. Add noodles and simmer until tender, adjusting cooking time according to package directions.
Stir in lime juice and chopped cilantro.
Recipe Notes:
Curry Paste: The intensity of curry paste can differ between brands. I used the Thai Kitchen brand for this recipe.
Noodles: Ramen or rice noodles are ideal for this soup. If using ramen noodles, discard any included seasoning packets. For rice noodles, rice stick or pad Thai noodles are excellent choices. I advise against using very thin noodles like vermicelli.
