Cooking Steps

Cook carrots
1
  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
  • Heat 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil in a large pot over medium-high. 
  • Peel, then halve carrot lengthwise. Cut into 1/8-inch half-moons.
  • When the pot is hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then carrots. Cook for 5-6 min, stirring occasionally, until softened. Season with salt and pepper.
Prep
2
  • Meanwhile, cut bok choy into 1/2-inch pieces. Rinse bok choy leaves to wash away any dirt.
  • Juice lime.
  • Remove outer layer of lemongrass, then cut in half crosswise. On a cutting board, using the back of a spoon or a pot, forcefully hit lemongrass to crush.
  • Pat tilapia dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper. 
Simmer broth and cook fish
3
  • To the pot with carrots, add lemongrass, curry paste, ginger-garlic puree, chili-garlic sauce and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) lime juice. Cook for 30 sec, until fragrant.
  • Add stock powder, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar and 3 cups (6 cups) water. Cover and bring to a boil over high. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium. Cover and cook for 4-5 min, stirring occasionally, until broth reduces slightly.
  • Remove and discard lemongrass.
  • Add bok choy and tilapia. Cook for 3-4 min, until tilapia is firm and opaque.**
  • Using a spatula, break up tilapia into bite-sized pieces.
Cook noodles and serve
4
  • Once boiling, add ramen noodles. Cook uncovered for 1-2 min, until tender.
  • Remove from heat, then add fish sauce. Stir to combine.
  • Divide noodle soup between bowls.
  • Tear cilantro over top.

Customer reviews

Review summary

Updated on Aug 2026
  • Flavour: The broth is fragrant and warming, with a satisfying spicy kick; some reviewers found it could use more depth of flavour.
  • Ease of prep: Most reviewers found this easy to make, though several noted it takes longer than 15 minutes from start to finish.
  • Suggestions: Add a second stalk of lemongrass or a splash of soy sauce to deepen the broth; cooking the noodles separately helps prevent them from absorbing the liquid and thickening the soup. Marinating the tilapia in ginger-garlic puree and lime juice for about 20 minutes before cooking can boost its flavour.
  • Leftovers: Noodles tend to absorb the broth when stored, so consider adding extra broth when reheating.
  • Customisation: Some reviewers enjoyed swapping tilapia for shrimp, while others added mushrooms or extra greens to round out the soup.
