Notes
Shopping tip: You’ll find chicken tenderloins – strips from the underside of the breast – near the chicken breast fillets at Woolworths.
With a twist: Soy & ginger pork in coconut noodle broth Replace the chicken with pork stir-fry strips. Replace the dried rice noodles with fresh hokkien noodles. Replace the mint with chopped fresh basil. Reduce the stock to 500ml (2 cups) chicken stock. Add a 400ml can coconut milk with the stock in step 3.
