Receta Laksa Soup
This wonderfully spicy and comforting soup comes from Malaysia. I saw it in a Health Food Magazine. The recipe can be made with chicken only. This soup is very similar to Vietnamese Pho soup which is one of my favourite soups.
Ingredientes
- 4 cups ( 1 L) homemade or low-sodium chicken or vegetable stock,
- 2 tsp (10 ml) olive oil
- 3/4 lb (350 g) chiken breast fillets, trimmed and cut into thin strips
- 1 1/2 oz (40 g) Thai red curry paste
- 1 cup (250 ml) coconut milk
- 2 kaffir lime leaves, finely shredded (optional)
- 1/2 (225 g) brown rice vermicelli noodles
- 12 shrimps (size 21/25), cooked and peeled
- Garnishes:
- 2 green onions, finely sliced on the diagonal
- 1 cup bean sprouts
- 2 tbsp (30 ml) firmly packed fresh coriander, mint leaves or a combination of the two

Direcciones
- Pour stock in a pot and bring to a boil.
- Heat oil in an other large saucepan; brown chicken in batches and reserve. Add curry paste to saucepan and cook for 1 minute over medium-high heat, stirring continously until fragrant. Add the hot stock, coconut milk and kaffir lime leaves (if using). Bring to a boil, then immediately reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Bring large pot of water to a boil. Crush noodles slightly with fingers and add to the pot of water; stir to prevent noodles from sticking. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes or until noodles are cooked. Drain well. Divide noodles, shrimp and chicken among 4 bowls and pour hot soup over. Add garnishes and serve immediately. Serves 4.
