This is seriously noodles taken to the next level! This dish retains the essence of a laksa but becomes thick and creamy as the sauce is absorbed into the noodles and vegetables… yummmmmm! This makes 4 serves so its great for meal preps or for feeding a family!
Here is the recipe:
CREAMY LAKSA NOODLE STIRFRY
Serves: 4
INGREDIENTS:
- 300g rice noodles
- 1.5 tablespoons laksa paste (I used @mekhalaliving )
- 1 tablespoon rice bran oil
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic

- 200g firm tofu, sliced into strips ( I used a pre-marinated one)
- 1 cup full-fat coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons tamari (or soy sauce)
- 1 tablespoon coconut sugar
METHOD:
1. Cook the rice noodles according to packet instructions. Drain and set aside.
2. In a wok on high heat, add the oil and laksa paste and stirfry for 1 minute unitl fragrant. Add in the garlic and stirfry for another minute.
3. Add in all the vegetables and tofu + a dash of water if required. Stir fry the vegetables for 5 minutes until the veggies are tender
4. Add in the coconut milk, tamari and coconut sugar. Reduce the heat to a simmer and stir until the sauce is creamy.
