Ingredients
  

2 packets of instant ramen noodles

1 can (400ml) coconut milk

2 tablespoons red curry paste

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

1 teaspoon minced garlic

1 teaspoon minced ginger

1 cup vegetable broth

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 tablespoon lime juice

1 cup mixed vegetables (e.g., bell peppers, carrots, and snap peas)

2 green onions, sliced

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

1 teaspoon chili flakes (adjust to taste)

Salt to taste

Lime wedges for serving

Instructions
 

Prepare the Noodles: Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the instant ramen noodles and cook according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

    Make the Base: In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and ginger, sautéing until fragrant (about 1-2 minutes).

      Add Curry Paste: Stir in the red curry paste and cook for another minute until well combined with the aromatics.

        Combine Liquids: Pour in the coconut milk and vegetable broth, stirring well to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

          Incorporate Vegetables: Add the mixed vegetables to the pot. Simmer for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still vibrant.

            Season the Broth: Stir in the soy sauce, lime juice, chili flakes, and salt to taste. Adjust seasoning as needed for your desired spice levels.

              Mix in the Noodles: Add the drained ramen noodles to the pot and gently stir to combine everything, allowing the noodles to soak up the flavors for about 2-3 minutes.

                Serve: Ladle the spicy coconut curry ramen into bowls and garnish with sliced green onions and fresh cilantro. Serve with lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
