Thai Curry Noodle Soup
November 30th, 2008
You may not accept that you could lose weight while on a diet plan which includes Thai Curry Noodle Soup but it is achievable. The key is to not eat Thai Curry Noodle Soup or other high calorie soups every day but in moderation.
This is what I do, I allow myself high calorie food one day per week. I eat a reduced calorie diet 6 days a week, say 1400 to 1800 calories per day, and then 1 day, I eat anything - within reason of course.
I have been eating this way for the last 4 weeks and it has enabled me to lose 5 kilos. I have not increased my exercise plan or taken any vitamins or diet food. I have only been conscious of what I eat most days of the week and then eat whatever I feel like one day per week.
I also feel it makes things easier if you have a little support when dieting and for that I signed up with the Biggest Loser club. They have lots of tools to show you how to monitor your progress and attain your goals.

Thai Curry Noodle Soup (Kaow Soy Kai)
This soup can also be made with large shrimp (Kaow Soy Kung) or pork (Kaow Soy Moo).
3/4 tablespoon red curry paste (or to taste)
1 teaspoon dark Thai curry powder
2 teaspoons yellow Indian curry powder
4 cups coconut milk (unsweetened)
1/2 pound white chicken meat, cut into 1-inch cubes
2 to 3 tablespoons fish sauce
1 to 2 teaspoons granulated sugar
Chicken stock to adjust consistency, if needed
4 ounces fresh egg noodles, cooked
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
Chopped green onion for garnish
In a hot saucepan, add the red curry paste, Thai and yellow curry powder and stir together. Add coconut milk and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and add fish sauce (salty) and sugar (sweet) to balance the flavors. Add cubed chicken meat and cook for 5 minutes or until the chicken is done. If the soup reduces too much, add chicken stock to adjust the consistency.
For each serving, place some of the cooked noodles in a deep bowl and sprinkle the noodles with chopped cilantro. Pour the soup into the bowl. Garnish with chopped green onions.
Serves 2 as a main course or 4 as a first course.
