Curry Noodle

Our curry noodle recipe is not only packed with delicious flavors but is surprisingly leftover friendly!

Curry originated from India but has expanded to different parts of Asia – from Japan to Middle East, each of these regions creating their version of curry. One thing in common though, curry is always flavorful since it has different herbs combined together.

We are inspired by the various version of curry and used that as an inspiration to create this curry noodle recipe.

When you hear the word curry, the color yellow probably pops up in your mind. This usually comes from turmeric which is one of the most common herbs added when making curry. However, our recipe doesn’t actually call for turmeric. Instead, we use a handful of cilantro combined with peanut butter and our favorite Chinese bbq sauce (if you’ve seen us do hotpot, you’re probably familiar with this). If that sounds a little odd to you, try it out and you’ll be surprised 😉

We want this curry noodle recipe to be leftover friendly and hence, we decided not to include too much spices but still making sure that the curry is packed with fresh flavors.

 And of course, if you want to make everything simpler, you can buy curry powder or curry cubes but hey, where’s the fun in that? (Don’t worry, we don’t judge – we often choose less time consuming options too) Our curry noodle recipe allows you to modify each taste profiles to your preference!

As for the protein, we used leftover pork slices, but if you want to make a vegetarian curry noodle, you can simply add crunchy veggies and tofu! Feel free to include any ingredients you are trying to finish off too (carrots, bell peppers or even cabbage).

The cooking process is also really simple and beginner friendly!

No double frying, no fancy techniques. We use noodles because we love curry noodles (Thai curry noodles are the best!) but rice also works really well 🙂
