This easy version of a Khao Soi recipe is an instant ramen hack version of the iconic northern Thai noodle soup that can be ready in 30 minutes!

 

A standard Khao Soi recipe consists of a vibrant and rich coconut curry broth with complex and deep flavors. Typically made with braised chicken, it can take multiple hours to cook down and achieve its maximum flavor potential. This 30-minute version gets you a lot of the flavors if you need a quick and tasty meal in a pinch.

 

The combination of red curry paste and Lee Kum Kee Panda Brand Oyster Sauce makes for a spicy and umami-packed flavor base for the broth, while instant ramen noodles help make this recipe extremely speedy.

How to make it

  1. Cook one pack of instant noodles, with seasoning packages removed, as directed. Drain, spread flat, and air dry or let sit until no longer wet. Fry in hot oil until golden and crispy. Set aside for garnish.

  2. Heat coconut milk in a pot over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally. Cook until the mixture has split and oil is visible. Sauté shallot, Lee Kum Kee Minced Garlic, and Lee Kum Kee Minced Ginger until soft. Add red curry paste, Lee Kum Kee Chili Garlic Sauce, and turmeric. Stir until fragrant.

  3. Pour in chicken broth and instant ramen seasoning packet and flakes and stir in Lee Kum Kee Panda Brand Oyster Sauce and sugar. Add sliced chicken and simmer until cooked through, about 10 minutes. Add fish sauce and lime juice to the broth.

  4. Cook a second pack of instant ramen in a separate pot of boiling water, seasoning packets removed. Divide noodles between bowls and ladle broth with chicken over top.

  5. Top each bowl with fried noodles, red onion, pickled mustard greens, fresh cilantro, lime wedges, and a generous drizzle of Lee Kum Kee Chiu Chow Style Chili Crisp Oil.
