    Delicious. I smoked the tofu first before crisping up and it was so tasty!

    Insanely good! possibly my fave Mob recipe so far. I left out the oelek and added my rice noodles at the same time as the broccoli

    great recipe! I found the noodles soak up all the curry leaving it very dry, so I recommend adding a tad more water

    Such a quick and easy nourishing meal. Personally would remove the agave as it was a touch too sweet for me and add some lemongrass

    Delicious but not 12 mins! In the instructions alone the timing is 25 mins

    was dubious by the “speedy” in the title but actually really impressed at how easy this was to make - was super tasty too!

    Just awful - was this recipe AI generated? The noodles soak up all the liquid and do not cook in 1 minute as suggested. I should have used my better judgement and cooked them separately. Same goes for the broccoli - it just breaks apart.

    Hey Sophie. All our recipes are developed by our chefs, this one in particular is in our Top 50 recipes. Thanks for giving the recipe a go, we're sorry to hear it didn't work out for you, watch your cooking temperature it might have been too high if the broccoli was breaking apart. Cooking the rice noodles separately would also work if that's your preference. Thanks again for your honest feedback.

    Great recipe! One note: next time I’ll cook the noodles separately so I can save the leftovers for the next day. The noodles soak up all the soup if kept together.

    Sooo delicious but the ‘12-min’ cook time is a little off lol. I’m not saying it took super long but will return with more time up my sleeves. Keen to try with Soba noodles next 🍜

    this was a winner!!!! I substituted a few things but they worked equally as well. cashews instead of peanuts and added mushrooms.

    I massively enjoyed this dish. super easy to follow, and the perfect spice level. I would suggest adjusting this to your tolerance. I am also prioritising protein in my diet, so used chicken instead of tofu which worked perfectly in this dish. The only thing I would say are some ingredients are difficult to find at an everyday supermarket, but you can find really good alternatives for most of the products.

    Such an easy flavorsome dish to cook! I cooked it with greenbeans instead of tenderstem broccoli and with real fish sauce and it was so tasty. I made the red curry paste with garlic, galangal, lemongrass, shrimp paste, shallots ground coriander, ground cumin and thaï basil beforehand so I skipped the garlic, ginger, shallots in step 3 and added my homemade paste with everything starting from 4 (except the agave). It was perfect with "plenty of lime zest and juice" as indicated in the last step.

    This was really good ! Can’t do spicy so left out Sambal Oelek. Also couldn’t get vegan fish sauce and used wholewheat noodles 😋

    This was easy to make, easy to follow and super tasty! I used ramen noodles as I didn’t have any rice noodles - just remember to cook them in water first (I forgot!)

    So good 🔥 I used Japanese noodles and made them separately and added them to each bowl, then poured the soup over. Of course, I made more noodles than called for because you can never have enough noodles in your bowl! The lime is a very nice added flavor and also cuts the spice if it’s too spicy. Thank you for the great recipe!

    Way too spicy for me! I halved the red curry and sambal oelek and still found it very hot.

    Yummy! I made it with shredded chicken and chicken stock and a bit of extra curry paste (I'm not a fan of tofu, nor plant based) and it was delicious. Will definitely make again!
