Ingredients
  

  • 1 packet dried rice noodles
  • 3 tbsp macadamia oil
  • 1/2 cup macadamia laksa paste*
  • 400 ml coconut milk
  • 2 cups vegetable stock
  • 2 tbsp lime juice or to taste
  • 1 tbsp fish sauce or to taste

  • 1/4 cup roasted macadamias chopped coarsely
  • 1/4 cup coriander leaves

Instructions
 

  • Place the noodles in a bowl and pour over boiling water to cover. Stand for 10-15 minutes, until soft, drain and set aside.
