How to Make Prawn Laksa | Spicy Malaysian Noodle Soup | YumCravings
Recipe Information
Spicy King Prawn Laksa
Cultural Context
Laksa is a beloved dish in Malaysia, showcasing a fusion of Chinese and Malay culinary traditions. This spicy noodle soup is often enjoyed as a comfort food, especially during rainy days. Variants of laksa can be found throughout Southeast Asia, each with its unique twist, making it a popular dish in many regions.
coconut milk
🥗Healthier: light coconut milk
💰Cheaper: evaporated milk
Light coconut milk reduces calories while maintaining creaminess.
king prawns
🥗Healthier: tofu
💰Cheaper: shrimp
Tofu offers a plant-based option, while shrimp is generally less expensive.
Start by heating 1 tablespoon of oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add 2 cloves of finely chopped garlic and a thumb-sized piece of grated ginger to the pot and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add 2 tablespoons of red curry paste to the pot and stir to combine, letting the flavors meld.
Pour in 1 can of coconut milk and 2 cups of chicken broth, stirring well and bringing it to a simmer.
Once bubbling, add the 200 g of fresh prawns and cook until they turn pink and are cooked through, about 3-4 minutes.
While the prawns are cooking, prepare the rice noodles according to the package instructions, then drain and set aside.
Return to the pot and stir to combine, then add a handful of bean sprouts and let them soften slightly.
Grab a bowl and add some cooked rice noodles, then ladle the broth with prawns over the top, ensuring a good mix of prawns and broth in each serving.
Garnish with fresh cilantro, a squeeze of lime, and sliced red chili for extra heat.
