Preparation

In a large stockpot, cook the noodles according to the package instructions. Drain in a colander, then rinse briefly with cold water, drizzle with a splash of oil then toss until the noodles are evenly coated to help prevent them from sticking. Set aside.

Meanwhile, heat oil in a separate large stockpot over medium-high heat. Add onion and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.  Add garlic and sauté for 1 more minute, stirring occasionally.

Add in the veggie stock, coconut milk, curry paste, and ginger, and stir to combine. Continue cooking until the broth reaches a simmer. Then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 5 minutes.

Taste and season with salt, black pepper, and extra curry paste, as needed.

Serve with the desired toppings and enjoy.
