Instructions
- Heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add oil, garlic, ginger, and onions. Sauté, stirring occasionally, for 5-8 minutes or until onion is lightly charred (edges are golden).
- Add curry paste and sauté for another 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently. Then add the vegetable broth and coconut milk and deglaze the bottom of the pot while stirring.
- Simmer over medium heat, then reduce heat to low and cover. Simmer over low heat for at least 1 hour, up to 2-3, stirring occasionally. The longer it cooks, the more the flavor deepens and develops.
- Taste the broth and adjust the spices as needed by adding coconut sugar for a little sweetness, turmeric for a more intense curry flavor, or more sesame oil for a nutty flavor.
- About 10 minutes before serving, prepare desired toppings/sides, such as pasta, sautéed portobello mushrooms, or spring onions (optional).
- Just before serving, scoop out 1/2 cup of the broth and stir in the miso paste. Once completely dissolved, return to the pan and turn off the heat. Stir to combine.
- either strain the broth through a fine sieve (when discarding Add the onions, garlic and ginger or add to the soup) or pour in the broth and leave the onions, garlic and ginger behind.
- To serve, divide the noodles of your choice into serving bowls. Top up with broth and desired toppings. Serve with chili garlic sauce or sriracha sauce for extra spiciness.
- Best when fresh , although the broth it can be stored (separately from the accompaniments/sides) for up to 5 days in the fridge or up to 1 month in the freezer.
