How yummy is laksa? Macadamias make the paste sing and sprinkling some on top gives a crunch alongside the crisp shallots. Mealtime memories are made of this.
Ingredients
- 1 packet dried rice noodles
- 3 tbsp macadamia oil
- 1/2 cup macadamia laksa paste*
- 400 ml coconut milk
- 2 cups vegetable stock
- 2 tbsp lime juice or to taste
- 1 tbsp fish sauce or to taste
- 100 g firm tofu
- 1/2 cup bean shoots
- 1 red or green chilli sliced
- 1/4 cup roasted macadamias chopped coarsely
- 1/4 cup coriander leaves
- 1/4 cup fried shallots
Instructions
- Place the noodles in a bowl and pour over boiling water to cover. Stand for 10-15 minutes, until soft, drain and set aside.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of macadamia oil in a large saucepan. Add laksa paste and cook over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, until aromatic. Add the coconut milk, vegetable stock, lime juice and fish sauce and continue to heat over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, ensuring the mixture does not boil. Season to taste with more fish sauce or lime juice.
- Meanwhile, heat remaining oil in a frying pan and cook the tofu over a medium heat, turning, until each side is browned. Slice thinly.
- To serve, place rice noodles in a bowl and ladle over the laksa soup. Top with tofu and remaining ingredients. Serve immediately.
