Pork coconut curry soup

 Pork coconut curry soup with rice noodle. It was very yummy but spicy. 

I bought 400grams pork loin from Meny at CC Vest shopping center. I think I paid 39kr per kilo. I sliced pork into bite size. Seasoned with 2 tablespoons curry powder, salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, sugar, tablespoon fish sauce, dried red pepper flakes, tablespoon soy sauce. Mixed well with hand. Set a side.
About 2 1/2 tablespoons red curry paste. I used quite a bit of it. If you don't want it so spicy hot use less red curry paste.



1/2 cup of peanut sauce I made a day before.



1 onion, finely chopped
4 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon ginger, chopped
1 green bell pepper, finely chopped




 Fresh coriander.



In a large sauce pan on high heat, heated 2 tablespoons peanut oil, added in onion, garlic, green bell pepper, and ginger. Sauteed for 4 minutes.



Made a little center, pushed vegetable a side and added seasoned curry pork.




Stirred and cooked for another 5-7 minutes.



Then I stirred in peanut sauce and....




....added in red curry paste.



Stirred well, so everything is coated with peanut sauce and paste and cook for 6 minutes.
Poured in 2 cans coconut milk. Lowered heat, covered, and let simmered for 8 minutes.


I added 2 tablespoons fish sauce, more curry powder about 1 tablespoon, and a tablespoon sugar. Stirred in a handful chopped coriander. Covered and simmered for another 10 minutes or so.







While soup was simmering. In a pot, brought water to a boil, cooked rice noodle according to the directions. Drained.......



.....added cooked rice noodle to a soup bowl. Set a side.



For topping, a  handful fresh bean sprouts, lime wedges, and chopped spring onions.








Bowl with rice noodle, ladled curry soup over rice noodle. Topped with bean sprouts, spring onions, and a wedge lime. Served right away.
