Red Thai Noodles
Easily adapted to your taste!
** This recipe can be as light as you like as a broth or if you require it to be thicker you can use less stock to it as more of a thick stew/ curry and you can use prawns instead of chicken if needed. Also if you want to keep it vegetarian , swap the stock for veg stock **
