Egg Noodle Seafood Coconut Curry

Thai food is one of my favorite cuisines and this Egg Noodle Seafood Coconut Curry is nothing but easy, tasty and delicious. A great Thai dish to try!

So I am thinking that I have to start making more Asian food. I simply love it and going out to eat is not much of an option for us right now. Not only because the budget doesn’t permit but  because I like to know what it is in my plate :-).

My Asian recipes may taste a bit different than the real thing but with practice I think I can get the recipes down. Anyhow, this one sure was good. Spicy none the less but still good. The Thai curries are sort of spicy so there is not much I can do about that, just adding a bit less curry paste would do I guess.

For this recipe the only thing I will suggest is to eat it right after it is cooked. If you have left overs the noodles will tend to get soggy, since they will absorb most of the liquid, still good but a bit different. Also you can use any seafood mix, and vegetables you prefer.

Enjoy!

Here you can see some of the ingredients I used which I get at the Asian market by my house. I love that place!!
