Tantalizing Thai Coconut Curry Soup

INGREDIENTS:

5 ounces rice vermicelli noodles

2 TBSP Milford Spice Tantalizing Thai spice

1 TBSP coconut oil

1 cup chopped sweet potato, carrots, parsnips, cauliflower or winter squash

1 (2-inch) piece ginger, finely grated (no need to peel)

4 garlic cloves, finely grated

3 TBSP Thai red curry paste

Kosher salt and black pepper

1 (14-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk

1 cup chopped snow peas, bok choy, snap or frozen peas, edamame or green beans

1 lime

Cilantro or basil leaves, for serving

DIRECTIONS:

Cook the noodles according to package directions. Drain, rinse and set aside.

While the noodles cook, in a medium pot, warm the oil over medium heat. Add the sweet potato, ginger, garlic and red curry paste. Season with a pinch each of salt and pepper and the Tantalizing Thai spice, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture turns a shade darker and begins to stick to the bottom of the pot, 3 to 5 minutes.

Stir in the coconut milk, snow peas, 1 cup water and 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a simmer and cook until the snow peas are bright green and the sweet potato is tender, 5 to 7 minutes.

Remove from heat. Cut the lime in half; squeeze one half into the curry and cut the other half into four wedges.

Divide the noodles among bowls, top with the curry and herbs. Squeeze more lime juice over as desired. Enjoy!
