Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this soup vegan?

Yes! Simply leave out the shrimp – if you want to add another protein, tofu would be a great option here. You can also add tofu alongside the shrimp if you want to bulk it out more.

Is this soup spicy?

It really depends on what brands of curry powder and curry paste you use!

I can’t find rice noodles, can I substitute egg noodles instead?

Yes, egg noodles would be less authentic, but still tasty.
