We tried this tonight, it was delicious. Bit too thick to call it soup though.
This was a very enjoyable dish.
Very pleasant meal. I used slightly less paste so kids would eat.
I top with fresh coriander from the garden too ?
Loved this! Beautiful flavours and so easy. I cooked it for 2 hours on high as I didn’t have 5 hours spare. I did go mad with the noodles as I thought there wasn’t enough so next time I’ll go easy!
Oh my such a great tasting Laksa. I only put 1/2 the noodles in tonight as we will be reheating it for tomorrow night.
Thanks for your great feedback Kim! 🙂
This was great. It has an authentic taste too.
I added a spoon full of garlic and and seared the meat before putting it in the SC. Half way through cooking I added an additional 2 1/2 (2.5) cups of water, knowing how we love vermicelli noodles and put half the packet in. They’re the white noodles (The photo shows the clear Korean potato noodles 🙂). I only put 2.5 Tbsp of Laksa paste otherwise it is too rich for us. This was enough for a large serve for 3 adults. And I have some soup left over which will keep in the freezer. THRILLED with this!
I used half a tin of the Maesri red curry paste. Only a tsp of sugar. 1 cup of stock and no cornflour. At the end I added Singapore noodles. It was so delicious & easy!!
One of my favourite dishes, will definitely be making it again as grand daughter really enjoyed it too.
Hooray so happy you loved it too Vivienne 🙂
My kids loved this recipe. Definitely making it again
That’s wonderful to hear! Thanks so much for leaving your feedback Diane 🙂
