I don’t know about you, but I absolutely love Asian noodles.
And if you are anything like me, you will enjoy this.
The creaminess of the coconut milk complements the fiery hot curry.
This is a tropical Asian dish, so it would most likely be found in Singapore or other Asian islands.
I don’t know why, but many people would not consider this tropical.
I find that very amusing because it is from and island, so it is tropical, right?
Anyway, I hope you enjoy this Asian recipe that I adapted from chef Ming Tsai.
