Tofu version not great. Surely you don’t eat it with raw stir fry vegetables? Would not use turmeric like this. Not spicy. Won’t be making it again.

Hello thank you for your question. You could freeze the base of the soup without the noodles - noodles tend to go mushy in the freezer. Then add freshly cooked noodles once you have defrosted and reheated the soup. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team

Loved this. Made it in slow cooker, threw everything together except for noodles. Used Santen ( coconut cream) to thicken it up. Microwave version also works well. Instead of noodles, jasmine rice is also very nice.

Quick and easy but somewhat bland. Use more curry paste or add more spices.

I've really enjoyed this recipe and despite my reservations I used the microwave method. I halved the recipe and I only cooked the chicken for 7.5 mins in total: I was surprised by how soft and tender it was. There was lots of left over 'soup' which I'll have with brown rice for a tasty healthy…
