Ingredients

Main 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
  • Handful of basil, torn
  • Handful of cilantro, torn or chopped
  • 1 tablespoon chopped chives (or scallions)
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • Lime wedges for serving

Instructions

  1. Heat oil and sauté aromatics: Add olive oil to a soup pot over medium-high heat. Add the grated fresh ginger and minced garlic. Cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
  2. Add broth and curry paste: Pour in the vegetable broth and stir in the Thai green curry paste until the paste dissolves completely in the liquid. Increase the heat and bring the mixture to a boil.
  3. Simmer with coconut milk: Reduce heat to medium-low and stir in the full-fat coconut milk. Allow the soup to simmer gently for 2 minutes to fully combine the flavors.
  4. Cook noodles and add herbs: Add the uncooked vermicelli noodles, basil, cilantro, and chopped chives to the pot. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Continue cooking for 2-3 minutes or until the noodles have softened completely.
  5. Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the top as desired.

Notes

  • The 3.5 ounces of vermicelli noodles is approximate; noodle packaging sizes vary, and using half a package or around 4 ounces will work well.
  • Recommended brands used for best authentic flavor are Thai Kitchen’s coconut milk and green curry paste.
  • This soup can be customized by adding protein like tofu or cooked chicken if desired.
