Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Cook the 200g rice noodles according to package directions until just tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  2. Step 2

    In a pot, heat 3 tbsp curry paste over medium until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add 400ml coconut milk and 2 cups water; bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Add the 8 cherry tomatoes and simmer until they soften and release their juices, about 3 minutes. Season with salt to taste.

  4. Step 4

    Divide the noodles between 2 bowls. Ladle the hot broth over them, then top with 50g fried dough and 0.5 cup fresh cilantro. Serve immediately.
