Instructions

1. Fry the chicken in a large saucepan (not too dark), remove. Briefly sweat the garlic and ginger in the roasting fat, add the leek and carrot strips and fry briefly. Pour approx. 1 - 1.5 liters of water, bring to the boil and season with the two types of stock powder.
2. Add the lemongrass (or 1 - 2 teaspoons of spice), curry paste, sambal oelek and coconut milk. Add wok noodles if desired (add a little more water if necessary). Let simmer for about 5 minutes.
3. Add the chicken, prawns and lemon juice and simmer for another 5 minutes. Season to taste and possibly add some more of the spices! (Just as everyone likes it).
4. Tip: There is a mixture of herbs called Thai Curry. This gives the soup the right kick. However, it doesn`t have to be. Tastes so great too.
5. I think you can also freeze the soup well. However, I haven`t been able to try it out because there`s never anything left.
