Cooking Steps

Prep Time
1

a) Quarter the mushrooms. b) Halve the pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 2cm pieces. c) Zest then halve the lime

Start the Laksa
2

a) Heat a splash of oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. b) When hot, add the mushroom, and pepper. Stir and cook until softened, 2-3 mins. c) Add the Thai spice (beware it's hot, add half if you're not a fan of heat!) and the easy ginger. Cook for 1 minute.

Simmer the Laksa
3

a) Pour in the coconut milk and bring to a simmer. b) Stir in the vegetable stock powder and water (see ingredients for amount) along with the peanut butter. c) Simmer until the veggies are soft, 3-4 mins.

Last few Jobs
4

a) Meanwhile, crush the peanuts by bashing the bag with the bottom of a saucepan.

Add the Noodles
5

a) When the veggies are soft, stir in the noodles. b) Make sure they are submerged in the laksa. c) Simmer until soft enough to eat, about 4 mins. TIP: The noodles may soak up some of the coconutty liquid. If this is the case, just add a splash of water to get it back to a soupy consistency.

Season and Serve
6

a) Stir in the soy sauce and lime zest. b) Taste and add lime juice and salt to taste. c) Share between your bowls and finish with a sprinkle of peanuts. Enjoy!

Review summary

Updated on Aug 2026
  • Flavour: A rich, fragrant broth with warming peanut and coconut notes; some find it benefits from extra lime juice, fresh coriander, or a pinch of chilli to sharpen and lift the flavour.
  • Ease of prep: Quick and straightforward to put together, making it a reliable choice for a busy weeknight.
  • Suggestions: Add extra chilli or a splash more lime juice if you prefer a brighter, spicier finish; using only half the spice mix is worth considering if you are sensitive to heat, as some find the full amount quite fiery.
  • Next-day meals: Leftovers reheat well the following day; add a small splash of water when reheating to loosen the broth back to a soupy consistency.
  • Consistency: The noodles absorb liquid quickly, so add water gradually to keep the dish at your preferred soupiness; some prefer to reduce the liquid further and serve it as a thicker sauce over noodles.
  • Vegetables: Many felt the dish would benefit from additional or more varied vegetables, such as pak choi, broccoli, sugar snap peas, or spring onions, to add colour, crunch, and substance.
  • Protein: Tofu, prawns, or chicken are popular additions for those wanting more substance; adding a protein makes the dish feel more complete as a main meal.
