Time 25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 ounces dried asian-style wide whole wheat egg noodles
2 tablespoons oil
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 onion, chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons red curry paste
12 ounces extra firm tofu, cut into thumb-sliced slices
1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk
2 cups vegetable stock or 2 cups water
2 teaspoons ground turmeric
2 tablespoons shoyu, sauce
1 tablespoon natural cane sugar
1 lime, juice of
2/3 cup peanuts
1/3 cup slivered shallot
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

Cook noodles in plenty of boiling salted water until just tender. Drain and set aside.
Heat oil in large saucepan over medium-high heat, then stir in garlic, onion, and curry paste and mash the paste around the bottom of the pan a bit to distribute it evenly. Cook until nice and fragrant - just a minute or two.
Add the tofu and gently stir until coated with the curry paste.
Stir in the coconut milk, stock, turmeric, shoyu and sugar. Bring to a simmer and simmer gently for 5 minutes.
Remove from the heat, stir in the lime juice, and add the noodles, jostling them a bit if they're sticking.
To serve, heap big piles of noodles into individual bowls and top with a generous ladle or two of the curry.
Top with peanuts and finish each bowl with a sprinkling of shallots and cilantro.
