Tofu and Green Curry Noodles
I love noodles, and I love them even more when they're coated in a curry soup, perfect for slurping. Healthy broccoli and zucchini round out this meal for a well-balanced dinner. For noodles, use your favorite Asian noodle (or even Italian pasta).

Make

  1. Prep noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  2. Heat a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Pour in coconut milk and whisk in curry paste. Add in broth, fish sauce, brown sugar, tofu, and broccoli. Mix everything together, cover and bring to a boil.
  3. Next add in zucchini, and cook uncovered for another 2 to 3 minutes. Turn heat off and add lime juice. Season to taste with more fish sauce (if it not's salty enough), sugar (if you want it sweeter), curry paste (if it needs more herbaceous notes), hot sauce (for heat), or lime juice (for more brightness). This is where you get to have fun, experiment, and trust your taste. The curry should taste like how you want it to taste.
  4. Divide noodles into 4 bowls. Ladle curry over noodles. Top with cilantro and enjoy warm!
