COOKING NOTES FOR THE GREEN CURRY NOODLES
Cooking rice noodles: Flat rice noodles tend to stick to each other when they cook. Stir the noodles several times as they’re cooking to keep them apart.Adjusting the amount of broth: Although the noodles are flavored with a broth, this isn’t exactly a noodle soup recipe. If you want this to be a noodle soup, you can add more vegetable broth (2 more cups should do). You will also need to adjust the other seasonings, such as adding more curry paste and coconut milk.
