  • 2 cups vegetable broth

  • 1 lime for juice and wedges

Instructions
 

Cooking steps

  • In a medium pot, combine the red curry paste, coconut milk, and vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
  • Add the ramen noodles to the pot and cook according to package instructions, typically 3-5 minutes, until tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  • Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the juice of half a lime. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  • Divide the ramen into two bowls. Garnish with your favorite toppings such as fresh cilantro, sliced green onions, chili garlic sauce, or a fried egg. Serve immediately with extra lime wedges.

Notes

For extra flavor, sauté the red curry paste in a little oil for 1-2 minutes before adding the liquids. Adjust the amount of curry paste to your spice preference. If adding protein, cook it separately and add it to the ramen bowls just before serving.
