Ingredients

• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tbsp ginger, minced
• 1 red bell pepper, sliced
• 1 carrot, julienned
• 3 tbsp Thai red curry paste
• 1 can (13.5 oz) unsweetened coconut milk
• 2 cups chicken or vegetable broth
• 1 tbsp fish sauce
• 1 tbsp brown sugar
• 8 oz rice noodles
• 2 cups fresh spinach
• 1 lime, juiced
• 0.25 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
• 2 green onions, sliced
• 0.5 tsp optional crushed red pepper flakes

Directions

Step 1

Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the minced garlic and ginger to the pot and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 3

Add the sliced red bell pepper and julienned carrot to the pot. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 4

Stir in the Thai red curry paste and mix well, allowing it to coat the vegetables for about 1 minute.

Step 5

Pour in the coconut milk and chicken or vegetable broth, stirring to combine.

Step 6

Add the fish sauce and brown sugar to the pot, and mix until dissolved.

Step 7

Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and then add the rice noodles. Cook according to package instructions, usually 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure the noodles don’t stick to the pot.

Step 8

Once the noodles are tender, add the fresh spinach and stir until wilted, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 9

Remove the pot from heat and stir in the lime juice.

Step 10

Garnish with fresh cilantro, sliced green onions, and (optional) crushed red pepper flakes for added spice.
