Thai Coconut Curry Noodles

Heydarl's Note:

I found this recipe on the back of a noodle pack while wandering in the grocery store one day. We really enjoyed it, but added more veggies to make it a little healthier. It's a great weeknight meal, as quite quick to prepare.

• Prep Time: 10 mins
• Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 4

• 350 g fresh egg noodles , flat
• 250 g ground pork

• 1 tablespoon minced garlic clove
• 1 tablespoon red curry paste
• 1 cup low-fat coconut milk
• 1 cup chicken stock
• 1 tablespoon curry powder

I think it probably had to do with the brand of curry powder and/or paste that I used, but this was WAY too salty. Saltiness aside, I also was not a fan of the flavour as well. Disappointing recipe if you are used to authentic Asian dishes.

For the first time ever, my kids liked an asian dish. I was stunded! Usualy they don't care for anything oriental, but this time they emptied their plates. What more could I want? DH and I enjoyed this dish very much too. I did use regular frozen peas, but it tasted great. A keeper! Thanks for posting.
