Ingredients
 
 

  • 10.5 ounces udon noodles
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 4 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 shallot finely chopped
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • 3 tbsp tomato paste
  • 2 tbsp Thai red curry paste mild
  • 1 ⅔ cups unsweetened coconut milk
  • 1 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp fish sauce
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp white miso paste
  • 1 tsp sriracha
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 2.5 ounces spinach

Instructions
 

  • Get all the prep done before you start cooking: mince the garlic, finely chop the shallot and grate the ginger.
  • Bring a large pot of water (without salt) to a boil, add udon noodles and cook according to package instructions. Drain and run under cold water to stop the cooking process.
  • In the meantime, heat oil in a large skillet over medium low. Add garlic, ginger and shallot. Cook until soft and fragrant, about 3-5 minutes. Add tomato paste, stir until darker in color. Then add red curry paste, stir until fully incorporated. Pour in coconut milk, stir to combine.
  • Add soy sauce, fish sauce, sesame oil, white miso paste, sriracha and lime juice. Stir to combine and simmer for about 5 minutes.
  • Add spinach, stir until wilted, about 2 minutes. Then add basil leaves, black pepper and udon noodles. Toss until the noodles are well-coated, about 1 minute. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
