3 tablespoons Laksa paste

400 ml coconut milk

• Add the coconut milk and half a cup of water, gently bring to a boil.
• Reduce the heat and simmer for 7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, empty the vermicelli into a large bowl and cover with boiling water, leaving to sit for 5 minutes so the noodles soften. Use a fork to stir and separate.
