Thai Coconut Curry Instant Noodle Soup in a Jar Recipe
Recipe
Makes one 16oz (500 ml) jar
Ingredients
5 g vegan bouillon (about 1/2 a cube), crumbled
2 teaspoons Thai curry paste (I prefer red curry paste but yellow and green also work)
2 teaspoons soy sauce*
1 teaspoon maple syrup
1/4 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
1/4 cup (60 g) canned coconut milk (if yours is separated, then mix or blend beforehand)
1/4 cup (20 g) shredded or grated carrot
2 brown mushrooms, thinly sliced
3-4 snow peas or sugar snap peas
1-2 bok choy leaves, thinly cut
1/3 cup (85 g) baked tofu cubes, edamame, or other plant protein of choice
1 nest (56 g) ramen or rice noodles (you may need to break them to fit in the jar)*
1 tablespoon thinly sliced scallion
Optional: thinly sliced chili pepper, to taste
1 lime wedge
Method
Place all ingredients in your jar in the order they are listed. This recipe is for one jar, but I like to make four or five at a time. Seal the jars with their lids and place them in the fridge.*
When you are ready to eat one, set the lime wedge aside and fill the jar (up to the top of the jar) with hot water.* Cover with the lid and let sit for 3 minutes.
Remove the lid and stir up your noodles with chopsticks. Make sure to stir all the broth ingredients at the bottom. Squeeze on your fresh lime an enjoy!
NOTES
*Make this recipe gluten-free by using gluten-free soy sauce and rice noodles.
*The jars can be stored in the fridge for up to 5 days.
*Depending on your jar, you may need to give it like 15-30 minutes to sit at room temperature (after taking it out from the fridge) before pouring hot water into it. You don’t want to shatter the glass :)
