👨🍳 步驟
- 1
Prepare the noodles: Blanch the fresh yellow noodles in boiling water for 30 seconds to 1 minute until just heated through. Drain immediately and divide among serving bowls. If using dried vermicelli, soak as per package instructions until pliable, then drain and divide among bowls.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 2
Fry the curry paste: Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat (around 175°C / 350°F). Add the curry paste and fry, stirring constantly, until fragrant and the oil starts to separate from the paste, about 5-7 minutes. This step is crucial for developing the deep flavor of the curry.
⏱️ 7 minutes - 3
Build the broth: Pour in the coconut milk and chicken or seafood stock. Stir well to combine with the fried curry paste. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then add the tofu puffs. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the tofu puffs to absorb the broth.
⏱️ 20 minutes - 4
Cook the cockles: Add the cleaned fresh cockles to the simmering broth. Cover the pot and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the cockles have opened. Discard any cockles that remain closed. Stir in the sugar (if using) and season with salt to taste. Be mindful of the saltiness from the stock and cockles.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 5
Assemble and serve: Ladle the hot curry broth, along with cockles and tofu puffs, over the prepared noodles in each serving bowl. Garnish generously with fresh mint leaves. Serve immediately with sambal and lime wedges on the side for guests to customize their spice and acidity levels.

💡 專業提示
- ✓Using both fresh yellow noodles and dried vermicelli provides a delightful textural contrast.
- ✓Fresh cockles are traditional and add a briny depth, but can be substituted with shrimp or chicken if unavailable.
- ✓Serving sambal on the side allows diners to control the heat level of their soup.
- ✓Ensure the curry paste is fried until fragrant and the oil separates; this deepens the flavor significantly.
