Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 2 heaping tablespoons Thai green curry paste
  • 1 (13.5 ounce) can full fat coconut milk
  • 3.5 ounces uncooked vermicelli noodles see note
  • Handful of basil torn
  • Handful of cilantro torn or chopped
  • 1 tablespoon chopped chives (or use scallions)
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • Lime wedges for serving

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Add olive oil to a soup pot over medium-high heat. 
  2. Add the ginger and garlic. Cook until fragrant (about 30 seconds). 
  3. Add in the vegetable broth and green curry paste. Stir until the curry paste has dissolved. Increase heat and bring the mixture to a boil. 
  4. Reduce heat to medium-low and stir in the coconut milk. Simmer for 2 minutes.
  5. Add the vermicelli, herbs, and salt & pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the noodles have softened. Serve with a wedge of lime. 

Notes

  • Noodle packaging sizes vary, so the 3.5 oz is just a ballpark (I use half a package for this soup). 4 oz or anywhere in that vicinity will work just fine. 
  • I use Thai Kitchen brand coconut milk and curry paste. 
  • I keep ginger in the freezer so it's easier to grate, and so I always have some on hand. I love using my Microplane grater/zester to grate it. 
  • This soup also appears in chapter 4 of the Salt & Lavender: Everyday Essentials cookbook.
