| Place the vermicelli in a bowl,
cover with boiling water and leave for 10 minutes to soak. Drain
and set aside.
Place oil in a wok over
medium-high heat. Add the laksa paste and stir-fry for 1 minute.
Stir in the stock, bring to the boil, then add the coconut milk
and simmer for 2 minutes. Add the green prawns, scallops and
deep-fried tofu and cook for 2 minutes before adding 1 teaspoon
of salt.
Divide the noodles between
serving bowls, top with the bean sprouts and the fresh herbs.
Pour the laksa soup over the noodles, dividing the seafood
equally among the bowls. Garnish with slices of chilli, peanuts,
shallots and the extra fresh herbs.
* Ingredients should be available from Asian supermarkets. If
the Vietnamese mint and Thai basil are unavailable, substitute
with extra fresh coriander (cilantro). |
