Malaysian Laksa Curry This curry is a symphony of satisfying Malaysian-inspired spices. Perfectly complemented with the nuttiness from cashews, vibrancy from ground turmeric, aroma from galangal and lemongrass, tang from tamarind and sweetness from coconut sauce, which all come together in a deliciously fragrant, moreish broth.
Sauce Facts It is thought that Laksa was borne out of a historic marriage of different food cultures during the Southeast Asian spice trade in the 16th century. Chinese traders would settle in the communities of the Malay islands and soon their cultural food traditions started to influence the local Malay cuisine. The Chinese cooking styles were married with the local ingredients such as chillies, tamarind and coconut milk. Laksa was one of the many delicious dishes that resulted as a fusion of the two cuisines. However, over the centuries, many variants of the dish have been created, which speaks to how rich and complex Laksa's story is. Our rendition includes a spice blend and other ingredients, resulting in delicious depths of flavour that will take your tastebuds on a culinary adventure.

Usage: Malaysian Laksa Curry Recipe Sometimes the coconut sauce separates, do not let this worry you! Cooking Instructions: Cut your chosen protein or vegetables into generous pieces. 1. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a small pan. Add the whole chilli for extra heat and fry for 20 seconds. 2. Add the protein or vegetables and brown lightly (if using fish or seafood, hold back and add this along with the coconut sauce in step 3). Add the paste (small pouch). Simmer for 1-2 minutes. 3. Stir in the coconut sauce (large pouch), 100ml veg or chicken stock and the makrut lime leaves from spice pouch. Simmer for 3-5 minutes, or until the fresh ingredients are cooked through. Serve over a bowl of freshly cooked noodles or rice. Finish with a squeeze of lime and garnish as you like. Serves 2-3 with rice or noodles. As appliances may vary, these are guidelines only. Please ensure food is fully cooked and piping hot throughout before serving. If you don't like whole spices, grind these in a pestle and mortar and add them with the coconut sauce in step 3 (before final simmer). Alternatively, if left whole, remove them with a spoon before serving.
Tailor to Taste Use these handy tips to customise your dish: - Try a seafood version and serve on a bed of noodles with the optional additions of tofu puffs, beansprouts and boiled, halved eggs and garnish with fresh Asian herbs. - For a delicious vegetarian version, use a mix of fresh vegetables - such as mangetout, pak choi, tenderstem broccoli, aubergine or julienned carrot - and tofu puffs, firm tofu, tempeh or seitan. - For a delicious new take on the dish, cook a chicken curry-style laksa by omitting the stock and serve with coconut rice.
