Thought this was a bit of a gamble as it looked too simple but turned out to be everything I wanted - Super quick, easy and tasty! Agree with another user that this isn't really a "laksa" but it's yummy nonetheless and only 1 pan to wash up. No complaints.

Super easy recipe with lots of flavour. I used Mae Ploy thai green curry paste and only needed 2tbsp of curry paste for a good spice hit. Beware overcooking the precooked prawns as they can shrink a lot and become tough. Note that the flavour isn't what I'd associate with curry laksa, but it is a tasty noodle soup nonetheless.

Just made this for supper. In terms of convenience I doubt this recipe can be beaten - it's literally 0 minutes prep time 5 mins cooking time. I guess the final result rests in the quality of curry paste you use - I used a £1.77/220g jar from Tesco and my husband found it strangely lacking in flavour and added a ton of salt, pepper and chilli flakes to it. For me it was just right though. I served it with brown basmati rice and found it a satisfying supper.
