Love laksa but never made it at home before. This was easy and delicoous. Tried chicken, shredded cabbage and sliced capsicum, also sliced beef, eggplant and basil - always great. Used less paste to cater for a noodle-loving toddler. - 21 Jan 2012
My husband and I really enjoyed this soup. He loves prawns and I love chicken so at the end I split it and mad ehis with Prawns and mine with chicken so we were both happy. I would add more red curry paste next time though because it was not as hot as I was expecting - 15 Jun 2009
