METHOD:

 

  1. In a food processor, pulse the chilli, lemongrass, garlic, ginger, fresh turmeric, onion, and coconut oil until a paste forms
  2. In a large saucepan on medium-high heat, add coconut cream and continue to stir until it splits (this should take roughly 5 mins)
  3. Add the paste and turmeric powder to the saucepan and cook until fragrant (this will take approximately 1 minute). Add the remaining coconut milk, stock, fish sauce, coconut sugar, cup of water, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and allow to simmer for 10 minutes 
  4. After 10 minutes, add the beans and cook for a further minute. Add the fish and cook for 2-3 minutes or until the fish is just cooked
  5. Add your halved tomatoes and then divide noodles evenly into 4 bowls. Serve the curry and the fish over the noodles. Top with Thai basil leaves, a lime wedge, and enjoy!
