Greenest Coconut Prawn Noodles Recipes

Steps:

• Cook rice noodles according to package directions, then drain and rinse well with cool water. Set aside. Keep a pot of boiling water on stove for reheating noodles later.
• Toast coriander seeds, cumin seeds, fennel seeds and allspice berries in a dry pan over medium heat until fragrant, then grind in a spice mill or with a mortar and pestle.
• Put coconut oil in a wide skillet over medium heat. Add onions and cook until softened, about 5 to 8 minutes. Add lemongrass, garlic and ginger to softened onions and cook for 2 minutes more.
• Season with salt and pepper, then add ground coriander, cumin, fennel and allspice. Add turmeric, cayenne, lime zest and juice, fish sauce and coconut milk. Simmer gently for 5 minutes.
• Season shrimp and cherry tomatoes with salt. Add to pan and cover until shrimp are cooked, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Dip noodles briefly in hot water to reheat, then drain and divide among bowls. Spoon shrimp, tomatoes and sauce over each serving. Sprinkle with scallions and garnish with cilantro, basil and mint leaves.

Steps:

• Purée chopped chile, ginger, lemongrass, garlic, fish sauce, brown sugar, and 3 cups water in a blender until smooth. Transfer curry to a small bowl. Reserve blender (no need to clean).
• Purée coconut cream, cilantro, 3 cups basil, and 1/4 cup ice water in blender until very smooth; set herb purée aside.
• Heat oil in a large saucepan or small pot over medium-high. Add clams, cover, and cook until clams open, 5-7 minutes. Uncover and transfer opened clams to a medium bowl, reserving cooking liquid in saucepan. If any clams are still closed, cover and cook a few minutes longer, then add to bowl with others; discard any clams that refuse to open.
• Add curry base to saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes to let flavors meld.
• Meanwhile, cook noodles according to package directions. Drain and rinse under cold water. Divide among bowls.
• Using a slotted spoon, transfer clams to noodle bowls. Pour any accumulated clam-cooking liquid into curry mixture and stir in herb purée; bring to a boil. Immediately remove from heat and squeeze in juice from lime. Taste and season with salt if needed. Ladle curry over clams and noodles. Top with sliced chile and basil leaves.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in large saucepan over a medium heat. Add the ginger, garlic, chilli and coriander stalks and fry with a pinch of salt until softened, about 3 mins. Add the greens and most of the coriander leaves, stir until wilted, then tip the contents of the pan into a blender with the coconut milk and 150-200ml water. Blitz until smooth and bright green. Or, if you have a stick blender, use it to blitz all the ingredients in the pan.
• Tip the sauce back into the pan, season and bring to the boil. Add the prawns, noodles and the lime juice and cook for 4-6 mins until the prawns have turned pink - by this time the noodles should be perfect. Ladle into two bowls and top with the remaining coriander.

Steps:

• Heat the oils in a large straight-sided pan over medium-high. Add the shrimp, season with salt and pepper and sear on both sides until you get a nice sear, about 5 minutes total. Remove from the pan and set aside.
• Back in the pan, add more oil if needed and toss in the garlic, ginger and bell pepper. Saute for one minute, then add the coconut milk, stock, noodles, fish sauce, sriracha sauce, cilantro and scallions. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and let simmer until the noodles cook through, about 5 minutes.
• Take off the heat and add a few big squeezes of lime juice. Now taste that. UGH. Need anything? Add a little salt if you want. More lime juice? Yes.
• Stir the shrimp back in and toss to combine. Serve with more cilantro on top!

Steps:

• Puree shallots, lemongrass, garlic, ginger and cilantro stems in blender with curry paste, sugar, salt, turmeric powder, and water until as smooth as possible (about 1 minute).
• Heat oil in a wide heavy pot over moderate heat until hot but not smoking, then add cook curry paste mixture, stirring frequently, until it just begins to stick to bottom of pot (8 to 10 minutes).
• Add coconut milk and broth and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until reduced to about 3 2/3 cups (8 to 10 minutes).
• While sauce simmers, cook noodles in a pot of boiling salted water, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender (4 to 6 minutes).
• Drain in a colander and rinse under cold water. Drain noodles well and divide among 4 large bowls.
• Add shrimp to sauce and simmer, stirring, until just cooked through. Remove from heat and ladle over noodles. Serve and enjoy!
