  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 2 tbsp red curry paste
  • 1 can coconut milk
  • 1-2 tbsp chili garlic sauce
  • 3 tsp sugar
  • shakes of soy sauce & fish sauce probably 1 tbsp of each. can eliminate fish sauce if vegetarian
  • 2 cups chicken or bone broth can use vegetable broth if vegetarian

For the Bowls

  • 1 roll ramen noodles I use HAKUBAKU Organic Ramen Noodles
  • 2 tbsp olive/vegetable/avocado oil separated
  • ¼ diced onion
  • ½ cup matchstick carrots you can buy shredded carrots or cut whole carrots into matchstick shapes (this is what I do and it's time consuming but worth it)
  • 1 cup chopped broccoli I chop the florets and the stems!
  • ½ diced red pepper
  • ½ lb shrimp we typically use wild caught frozen or fresh

Instructions

For the Coconut Curry Broth

  • Heat oil in large stock pot over medium heat. Add minced garlic and ground ginger. Sauté until fragrant.
  • Add red curry paste, stir and sauté for 2 minutes.
  • Add can of coconut milk. Mix well and bring to a simmer.
  • Add broth, chili garlic sauce, fish sauce and soy sauce. Mix well and bring to a boil.

For the Bowls

  • Once broth is boiling, add ramen and lower heat to medium. Cook for 4 minutes (or for time on ramen package). Once the ramen is cooked, lower the heat to low.
  • Meanwhile, chop onion, carrots, broccoli and red bell pepper. Prepare shrimp by seasoning with salt and pepper.
  • Heat oil in a separate pan over medium heat. Add vegetables to oil and sauté for 5-8 minutes. You want them to be softened but still have a bite to them.
  • Add vegetables to the broth pot once finished cooking. Mix well. In the vegetable pan, heat oil and add shrimp. Sauté until they reach desired doneness. I cook them about a minute on both sides over medium heat.
  • Add shrimp to the broth pot and mix well.
  • Spoon into 2 bowls. Top with chopped scallions and jalapenos (or whatever you want!.
