I enjoyed this very much, although I confess I was cautious with adding extra 'heat' since my husband struggles with it. I loved that sweet spicy flavour, for me this is fabulous mix! I had to sub zucchini for the broccoli, hope you dont mind, I felt it worked very well, and I used a thin fettucine instead of rice sticks. Enjoyed very much, for ZWT9 Family Picks, Pink Panthers, thank you!

This was a good noodle dish. The red curry paste made it very spicy, even without the sambal. The type of rice noodles they sell in our stores cook in about 1 minute. I tripled the broccoli, and followed Susie's lead and added a red pepper. Also garnished with cilantro. I thought it seemed like it might be too much liquid, but it was fine after adding the noodles. Portions were generous.

I LOVE to cook and bake nearly everything!
I HATE to see people join the site, have no published recipes, but rag on another cook in a review on a recipe they haven't even tried or didn't follow.
Oh, and I hate cilantro, too. :)
