🥘 Ingredients needed to make Thai Red Curry Shrimp Noodle Soup

- Shrimp (peeled and deveined)
- Coconut Oil - Gives a nutty and aromatic flavor to this Thai Red Curry Noodle Soup.
- Garlic - I have used Asian Garlic Paste. You can use minced garlic or you can even find Asian Garlic paste in any big grocery store or supermarket
- Coconut Sugar - Coconut Sugar is a healthier alternative to brown sugar or Palm Sugar. However when in a pinch you can use Brown Sugar as well.
- Fish Sauce - This gives this soup that authentic Thai taste. If you donot have it, skip it.
- Red Curry Paste
- Coconut Milk - I recommend using full fat coconut milk for ultimate creamy and sweet taste and texture.
- Lime Juice - This brings in a perfect refreshing taste to this tropical seafood soup.
- Ground Black Pepper
- Ramen Noodles or Rice Noodles - Either one of these can be used. Rice Noodles and Ramen both cook very quickly in just about 2 minutes in hot water.
- Thai Basil Leaves for garnish

👩🍳 Instructions on making Thai Red Curry Noodle Soup
STEP 1: COOK RED CURRY PASTE
- Heat Coconut Oil in a saucepan
- As the oil shimmers, add the Thai Red Curry Paste and cook until it gets fragrant for about 2-3 minutes over medium-high heat
STEP 2: ADD THE VEGGIES
- Add Garlic and toss to combine
- Now, add the veggies. You can add any veggies you have at home (from Zucchini to Squashes to Carrots to Onions & Bell Peppers etc)
- Toss to combine and cook for 2-3 minutes so that the veggies tenderises
STEP 3: POUR COCONUT MILK
- Pour Coconut milk in the cooking mixture. Also, pour in the Fish Sauce and Coconut Sugar. Stir to combine everything.
- Break in the Ramen Noodles and bring it to a boil
- Add the Shrimps
- Simmer over low heat for 2-3 minutes
- Garnish with cracked black pepper, lime juice, and Thai Basil Leaves.
💨 Remember that overcooking the ramen will make them mushy and shall absorb all the moisture. So just simmer for 2 minutes and serve. Also, donot overcook the shrimp. Just cooking them for 2 minutes will be enough. Overcooking the Shrimp will make them rubbery.
💡 Hint: If the soup is getting too thick, then pour some more Coconut Milk and toss to combine. Simmer and Serve.

📝 Substitutions
- Veggies - I have used Bell peppers and Onions. However, feel free to use any Veggies you have at home. From Squashes to Zucchini to Carrots, you can use any veggies you love.
- Green Curry Paste - If you have Green Curry Paste, then use that instead of Red Curry Paste to make Thai Green Curry Noodle Soup.
🧊 Storage
- This Soup can be refrigerated for about 2-3 days and can be reheated in the microwave and served
- However, I do not recommend freezing this Soup and this has coconut milk and it does not stand well upon freezing.
