All youThai Chicken Satayfans out there will LOVE it!
Were discarding the seasoning packet and making our own sauce.
Using instant noodle cakes is ideal because the crinkly nature of the noodles captures the chicken mince bits.

Thai red curry paste Our flavour shortcut.
There is a time and place forhomemade red curry paste.
But tonight is not it!
Regular readers who know Im a bit snobby about my favourite red curry paste brand: Maesri.
For this dish, Im a little more relaxed because … well, you know.
Quick n easy midweek meal and all.
Im not convinced about lamb, but then again, Lamb Satay is darned delicious!
But light, all-purpose soy sauce, tamari or even mushroom soy will work just fine.
Full fat for coconut milk like.
If you opt for low fat, do not complain if you are disappointed with the sauce flavour!
Baby spinach Takes mere seconds to wilt, and an easy way to up the veg quot.
No chopping required, just throw into this dish.
Heres a photo of what I think is the best Red Curry Paste, by a long shot.

Then give it all a good toss;
Finally add the baby spinach right at the end.
It wont take much longer than 30 seconds or so to wilt; and
Serve it up!
you’ve got the option to either garnish with peanuts and fresh coriander/cilantro before or after serving.
Ive been known to do both.
Also, a good squirt of Sriracha chilli sauce wont go astray!
it’s possible for you to be very generous with the baby spinach because it wilts down into nothing.
Because, well, you know.
We can never have enough!!
