Chicken Laksa

Preparation time:

Cooking time:

Laksa is traditionally a coconut based soup with noodles. It's a great example of how fresh and clean Asian flavours are. We just love the lime/coriander/coconut/chilli combination in this soup, it's like a hug in a bowl! It's also really easy and quick to prepare, perfect to whip up midweek!
Use less chilli if you prefer less heat.
