Jenn takes inspiration from Indonesia for this recipe, calling for a mΓ©lange of aromatics to blitz together a homemade curry paste (think dried red chilies, ginger, lemongrass, curry powder, and cumin).

Make the Laksa paste- see the notes below (or use store-bought laksa paste).; Cook rice noodles according to directions.

In a large heavy bottom soup pot or dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat.

Laksa is a spicy coconut noodle soup that needs to be in your repertoire.
