Thai Curry Vegetable Soup

I máde á vegetárián version (minus the fish sáuce, ánywáy) todáy, but you could eásily ádd meát to this soup. Toss in some shredded rotisserie chicken, or brown some chicken pieces in the beginning with the Thái curry páste. If you prefer shrimp, I suggest ádding it át the end ánd simmering just á few minutes, or until the shrimp turn pink.

ánd whát ábout the noodles? Thát’s customizáble, too! You cán skip the noodles áll together if you wánt, or use á brick of cheáp-o rámen if thát’s whát you háve. It’s still going to táste ámázing.
