Cooking Steps

1
  • Boil the kettle. Place bean vermicelli noodles in a medium heatproof bowl. 
  • Add enough boiling water to cover noodles. Cover and set aside until tender, 4-6 minutes.
  • Drain, rinse and return to bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and alow to cool slightly.
2
  • Meanwhile, thinly slice cucumber into sticks.
  • Slice lime into wedges.
  • In a large saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.
  • When oil is hot, cook chicken breast strips, tossing, in batches until browned and cooked through, 4-5 minutes.

TIP: The chicken is cooked when it is no longer pink inside.

3
  • Add laksa paste and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
  • Stir in coconut milk, fish sauce & rice vinegar mix, the water and soy sauce. Bring to the boil, then reduce to heat to medium and simmer, until slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. 
  • Remove saucepan from heat, then add baby spinach, stirring until just wilted, 1 minute.
4
  • Divide noodles between bowls.
  • Pour over chicken laksa and top with cucumber.
  • Garnish with crispy shallots and a pinch of chilli flakes (if using). Tear over coriander (including stalk!) and serve with lime wedges. Enjoy!
