  1. SWEET POTATO

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the sweet potato on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 20-25 minutes (shifting halfway). Alternatively, air fry at 200°C until crispy, 15-20 minutes (shifting halfway).

  2. INTO THE PAN

    Place the cashews in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

    Trim the pak choi at the base, separate leaves and rinse thoroughly. Roughly chop the pak choi stems and set aside.

  4. SMELL THOSE AROMAS

    Place a pot over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the Onion and pak choi stems until golden, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the Ginger, the curry paste and fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes (shifting constantly). Add in the coconut milk, and mix until smooth. Add the noodles and 150ml [300ml]|#7DA0D7 of water.
