How to Tell When Fish is Cooked

Method

1. Place noodles in a large heatproof bowl. Cover with boiling water. Set aside 5 minutes, or until tender. Drain well.
2. Heat oil in a large saucepan on medium. Add curry paste and cook, stirring, for 1 minute, until fragrant.
3. Blend in stock and coconut milk. Simmer gently 4-5 minutes. Add fish, bok choy stems and baby corn. Simmer 2-3 minutes, or until fish is just cooked through.
4. Add fish sauce and sugar, then stir. Add bok choy leaves and remove from heat.
5. Divide noodles among serving bowls and ladle over the soup. Top with a small amount of bean sprouts, coriander and chilli, to serve. Accompany with lime wedges.
