Once it’s done, set aside. -In the same pot, heat up 1 tbsp oil over medium heat. Add your onions and sauté for a few minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with a little salt. -Add your bell pepper and carrots, and sauté for a few more minutes or until the veggies start to soften. -Create a space in the pan and add your garlic, ginger, lemongrass paste, miso paste, and curry paste. Sauté for a few minutes or so, stirring frequently. -Add chicken stock, coconut milk, and oyster sauce. Stir until combined. Bring soup to a boil, reduce to simmer, and cover for about 10-15 minutes. -Add in your cornstarch slurry and stir well. -Add noodles and cooked chicken. Cook the noodles according to the package. -Finish off the pot with a large handful of cilantro, green onions, and juice of one lime. -When serving, I like to add some fresh lime juice, extra cilantro, and jalapeño slices. #dinner #soup #souprecipe #soupseries #soupseason #recipe #mealinspo #soupinspo #cozy
