These curry noodles are like curly fries. Somehow the curliness makes them exceptional.

Different pasta shapes and sizes give a dish a certain feel. There are definitely specific occasions to use penne versus spaghetti. In this case, the curly noodles make this curry noodle soup uniquely slurp-worthy.

I developed this dish after reading a recipe on the website of one of my favorite chef personalities – Sam the Cooking Guy. He’s a bundle of crazy fun and very entertaining. Plus he makes simple, delicious food. His recipe for Thai Curry Noodle Soup is tops on my yum-o-meter!

With a couple small tweaks, mushrooms and more curly noodle madness, I make it into a vegetarian bowl (vegan too).

Not that I have anything against the shrimp Sam adds…it’s just that I prefer to eat vegetarian or vegan most days.

 

How to Make these Coconut Curry Noodles

This curry noodle soup takes 10 minutes to put together with a few pantry staples, fresh mushrooms and red peppers. It will quickly become a household favorite! Give yourself a reason to stock your cupboard with curly noodles – you won’t be disappointed.

Step 1: Bring broth, coconut milk and spices to a boil in a large pot.

Step 2: Add mushrooms, peppers, scallions and noodles.

A quick 5 minute simmer and these Thai curry noodles are ready to slurp!

Top with extra scallions, jalapeños, cilantro + a squeeze of lime. More chili garlic sauce can be added if you like lots of spice. The recipe as written is mildly spicy.

Ingredients
  • 2.5 cups low sodium vegetable broth
  • 13.5- ounce can organic coconut milk
  • 1.5 tsp curry powder
  • 1.5 tsp Asian garlic chili sauce
  • 5- ounce package Asian Gourmet Chuka soba curly noodles uncooked (or any ramen)
  • 3 cups thickly sliced mixed mushrooms Baby Bella, Shitake, etc

  • 3 scallions, thinly sliced, divided

Instructions
  1. Put broth, coconut milk, curry and chili sauce in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil.
  2. Turn down to a simmer and add the noodles, mushrooms, red pepper and 1/2 the green onions. I break the noodles in half a few times to make them easier to submerge and to eat!

  3. In about 5 minutes, the noodles will be soft and the mushrooms tender.
  4. Garnish with extra green onions, sliced jalapeños, cilantro and a squeeze of lime.

    Mmm, sounds great!! I love shrimp, too, but shrimp farming and wild-catching are both bad for the environment, so I only eat them a couple of times a year. Vegetables and mushrooms are very tasty, too!

      Absolutely! The original recipe calls for chicken, but I wanted to keep it vegetarian.

    My daughter recently became a vegetarian, so we are constantly on the lookout for easy and quick veggie dishes. She would love this.

      Yay! I know it’s hard to cook for different dietary needs in the same family. Hope it makes at least one meal easier for you!
