Cooking Steps
- Heat a large pot over medium-high heat.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then red curry paste, curry paste and chili-garlic sauce. Cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 30 sec.
- Add coconut milk, stock powder, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar and 3 cups (6 cups) water. Bring to a boil over high. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until broth reduces slightly, 6-7 min. Season with salt and pepper.
- Meanwhile, tear cilantro leaves.
- Meanwhile, drain and rinse shrimp, then pat dry with paper towels.
- After broth has simmered for 6-7 min, add shrimp. Cook for 3-4 min, until firm and opaque.** Season with salt and pepper.
- Add sugar snap peas and ramen noodles to the broth. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sugar snap peas are tender-crisp and ramen noodles are tender, 1-2 min. Season with salt and pepper.
- Divide soup between bowls. Top with cilantro and crispy shallots.
If you've opted for shrimp, drain and rinse shrimp, then pat dry with paper towels. After broth has simmered for 6-7 min, add shrimp. Cook for 3-4 min, until firm and opaque.**

Review summary
Updated on Aug 2026- Flavour: The coconut-curry broth is bold and well-received by most, though some found it mild; adding lime juice, fish sauce, or Thai basil can deepen the flavour noticeably.
- Ease of prep: This is a quick, one-pot meal that most reviewers found easy to follow and simple to prepare.
- Suggestions: Top and tail the snap peas before adding them, and cook the ramen noodles longer than the suggested 1–2 minutes if they seem underdone. Some reviewers swapped snap peas for mushrooms or broccoli, and others added extra vegetables like peppers to round out the dish.
- Leftovers: The generous broth lends itself well to next-day meals — some reviewers added extra noodles or pre-cooked vegetables when reheating for a more filling result.
- Portions: Several reviewers felt the noodle quantity was too small for two people and suggest adding an extra portion of noodles to balance the volume of broth.
