Coconut Curry Noodles
These Coconut Curry Noodles incorporate lots of veggies – spring onions, broccoli, bell peppers, mushroom and carrots in a creamy coconut milk sauce with a curry spice blend. The amount of vegetables as well as ingredients for the sauce can be adjusted to your taste. Pan-fried tofu adds extra plant-based protein.
You can use any noodle of your choice, and if you prefer a less creamy sauce, you can reduce the amount of coconut milk. Try this vegan recipe for lunch, dinner or any time.
