<RecipeText>Laksa Paste
Prepare all your ingredients – cut up broccoli in generous chunks, slice broccoli & capsicum, thinly slice chicken, dehead & devein prawns.
Fry off eggplant or put on a hot grill just to soften, then place into a 150′ pre oven on a tray for about 20 minutes.
Boil the jug to have some hot water ready to soak the hokkien noodles.
Next step is to get your wok all nice and hot, once it has started to smoke throw in peanut nut oil ,
(If you have kept the prawn heads you can use them to flavour the wok just remember to remove them before you add in the paste),
Now toss in the Laksa paste this should start to sizzle and cook through you want this to become a nice brown colour, if you need to add more peanut oil to prevent the paste from burning do so…
Once it has become a nice golden brown colour, pour in the coconut milk, chicken stock and stir it all though..
You should have a nice looking broth happening now. Allow it to come to the boil then throw in broccoli followed closely by the capsicum.
Add your hokkien noodles to a heatproof bowl and pour over the hot water from the jug to let soften.
Now throw in the chicken and peeled prawns, these won’t take very long to cook through particularly the chicken if its been sliced thin …
lastly add the snow peas…
Get your serving bowls ready – Add the drained noodles, Pour over the lakes broth – making sure that every one gets an even amount of prawns to avoid any disputes, add your baked eggplant on top,and sprinkle over the fried shallots, vietnamese mint, coriander & serve! YummmmmmmOOOOOo
You can add anything you like to this dish .. some fried tofu does a wonderful job of soaking up all that yoummy broth! Enjoy!
