Dinner is served in a dash with this fragrant, creamy laksa that’s big on flavour and low on effort. We’ve paired silky bean vermicelli noodles and tender chicken with fresh cucumber sticks to cool things down, plus a hit of coriander and chilli flakes for those who like a bit of a kick. It’s a hawker-style hero that’s much faster (and tastier) than waiting for delivery.

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

2

• Meanwhile, thinly slice cucumber into sticks.
• Slice lime into wedges.
• In a large deep frying pan, 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 through when it is no longer pink inside. 

Bring it all together
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 pan from heat, then add baby spinach leaves, stirring until just wilted,  
1 minute.    

Finish & serve

• Divide vermicelli noodles between bowls.
• Pour over chicken and spinach laksa, then top with cucumber.
• Garnish with crispy shallots and a pinch of chilli flakes (if using).
