Quick and delicious!
Ok. So this is like a tom yum and a bowl of yellow curry had a baby! Love the warmth, slightly velvety nature of the broth and the various proteins. We did everything but the boiled egg this time. I would say if you’re pescaterian- you could totally do this with seafood and tofu puffs only. Best part is… these are ingredients we have in the pantry or very easy to get (if you cant get fish balls, a nice white light flavored fish could work). We enjoyed it and it’s going into the weekday rotation!
Delicious
Great recipe and super easy to follow. I managed to get Laksa paste from my local Asian grocery shop, so used that instead of the Thai Red Curry Paste. Put a couple of star anise in the stock too, prior to adding the prawns. Left out the egg, as we are not a fan of boiled eggs, but threw into the bowl a couple of snow peas along with the noodles and bean sprouts. Absolutely delicious and will certainly become another favourite recipe from Marion.
