Ingredients

• 8 ounces egg noodles
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 small onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon curry powder
• 1 can (13.5 ounces) coconut milk
• 1 cup vegetable broth

How to Make Spiced Noodles with Curry and Rice

1. Cook the egg noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes, until softened.
3. Add the minced garlic and curry powder to the skillet, stirring for about 1 minute until fragrant.
4. Pour in the coconut milk and vegetable broth. Stir to combine and bring to a gentle simmer.
5. Add the sliced red bell pepper and snap peas to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender but crisp.
6. Stir in the soy sauce and lime juice, mixing well. Add the cooked noodles to the skillet, tossing to coat them evenly in the sauce.
7. Remove from heat and fold in the chopped cilantro.
8. Serve warm, garnished with lime wedges for squeezing over the noodles.

Tips for the Best Results

• Use fresh herbs for the best flavor; cilantro adds a bright note.
• Adjust the curry powder to your spice preference—more for heat, less for a milder dish.
• Ensure your vegetables remain crisp by not overcooking them.

Easy Variations

• Swap egg noodles for rice noodles or whole grain pasta for a different texture.
• Add proteins like shrimp, chicken, or tofu for a heartier meal.
• Incorporate other vegetables like carrots, broccoli, or spinach based on what you have on hand.

What to Serve With It

• Crispy spring rolls for an appetizer.
• A simple side salad with fresh greens and a light vinaigrette.
• Steamed rice to soak up the delicious curry sauce.
