  Simply stunning! Easy and fairly quick to make once you have assembled the ingredients. The noodles were gorgeous and the flavours worked well. I could only find the kind of rice noodles that you don't cook in water first so simply cooked them in the sauce turning frequently, which worked a treat. Will definitely be making again.

  Not sure why it's described as spicy because it really isn't!! I added more garlic, some chilli flakes and double the amount of garam masala but still it tasted bland. I would add less lime zest to the noodles as well as they were very overpowering. I would have given it two stars but the fact that it was really easy to make means three.

  Husband just told me it was amazing. What more do you want from a recipe? Used one extra garlic clove, a very heaped tbsp garam masala, about 1/4 tsp of chilli flakes and seasoned well. Easy, quick and tasty. Try it!!

  Made this for first time for dinner with some friends. Very simple and tasty. Followed advice and added extra spice and some chilli, if anything I'll add more next time for some extra kick. The noodles are especially delicious, I left them a little longer and they soaked up the coconut milk. Yum.

  Coconut noodles were pleasant change but curry was very disappointing as there was no kick and quite bland.

  The chicken was rather bland. I would marinate it for a richer flavour.

  Quick and easy for a midweek supper. I marinated the chicken in the garam masala, garlic and ginger for 30 mins before cooking. I found the noodles nice but a bit soupy. I'd make again due to it's simplicity but probably use rice rather than noodles.
