Malaysian Laksa Noodle Soup
This vibrant Malaysian Laksa Noodle Soup is a comforting and flavorful dish, featuring a rich coconut broth, tender noodles, and fresh toppings. It's a perfect balance of spicy, savory, and aromatic notes, ideal for a satisfying lunch.
Let's cook.
Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add 1 cup of laksa paste and sauté for 3-5 minutes, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
Pour in 4 cups of chicken broth and 1 can of full-fat coconut milk. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then reduce heat to low.
Stir in 1 tablespoon of fish sauce and 1 teaspoon of sugar. Let the broth simmer gently for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
While the broth simmers, prepare 8 ounces of rice vermicelli noodles according to package directions. Drain well.
Divide the cooked noodles among 4 serving bowls. Ladle the hot laksa broth over the noodles.
Top each bowl with 1/4 cup of fresh bean sprouts and 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh cilantro.
Serve immediately with a lime wedge on the side for squeezing.
