  1. CRUNCHY CASHEWS

    Boil a full kettle. Place the cashews in a pan over a medium high heat. Toast for 2-3 minutes until golden brown, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside. Roughly chop when cool enough to handle.

  2. SILKY NOODLES

    Using a shallow dish, submerge the noodles in boiling water with a pinch of salt. Cover with a plate and allow to soak for 6-8 minutes until cooked through. Taste to test, and drain on completion. Toss through some oil to prevent sticking. Dilute the vegetable stock with 200ml of boiling water.

  3. SOUP TIME

    Place a pot (large enough for the soup) over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the Thai red curry paste (to taste) and white spring onion slices for 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the diluted stock and coconut cream, and stir until well combined. Add the pierced whole baby tomatoes, halved mushrooms, and sliced green beans. Lower the heat and simmer for 5-7 minutes until the baby tomatoes and mushrooms are soft, and the green beans are cooked through but still crunchy. Add some lime juice and season.

  4. EASY AS THAT!

    Place the noodles in a bowl. Pour over the Tom Kha soup. Garnish with the green spring onion slices, sliced basil leaves, and toasted cashews. Well done, Chef!
