Malaysian curry – Laksa
Description
Imagine this: shrimps soaked in a coconut milk broth flavored with lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, all spiced up with some chilli and served with noodles. This is exactly what Laksa is! And of course, you can adjust the consistency as per your taste: creamier? Soupier? You choose!
Served with noodles or rice? You choose!
Add chicken or veggies instead of shrimps? That is right. You choose😂
I would say this is the perfect comfort food on this weather: warming, filling, nutritious and so flavorful!
