Tasty prawn and chicken laksaÂ
Cook time: 30 minutes
Prep time: not long
Serves: 4
6 chicken thighs, boneless and skinless
12 peeled prawns
3 tbsp yellow curry paste (red curry paste for slightly hotter)
6 cloves garlic, sliced
2 knobs ginger, cut in half
1 onion, peeled and sliced
2 tbsp sunflower oil
400 ml coconut cream
250 ml vegetable stock
1 small pkt egg noodles or vermicelli
1 cup fresh coriander, roughly chopped
4 eggs, hard boiled, peeled and cut in half
Chili and crispy shallots if you want
Start by marinating the chicken thighs. Place them into a bowl and rub over 1 tbsp of the yellow curry paste. Add a little water to help.
Set aside in the fridge to marinate, ideally over night.
Next day cut each chicken thighs into 6. Heat a large cast-iron pan and start frying the chickens in oil. Once browned, add sliced onion, garlic, prawns and the remaining curry paste. Sauté for a few more minutes before adding the ginger, coconut cream and stock.
Cook out for 20 minutes on low, before adding in the egg noodles. After another 2 minutes served into bowls and top with the cooked egg, fresh coriander and chili if you wish.
Crispy shallots can add a nice crispy texture.
