Instructions
1
Prep
Soft-boil the egg in simmering water for 6–7 minutes, then peel and halve. Cut the chicken thigh into bite-sized pieces. Slice the shallot and chop the cilantro.
2
Bloom
Heat the vegetable oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the curry paste and turmeric; cook 1 minute until the raw paste smell fades and the oil turns red.
3
Simmer
Pour in the coconut milk and chicken stock, add the chicken pieces, and simmer over medium heat 12–15 minutes until the chicken is opaque throughout and no longer pink.
4
Season
Stir the fish sauce and brown sugar into the broth and simmer over low heat 2 minutes until dissolved, tasting so the broth reads salty-sweet.
5
Finish
Stir the cooked lentils into the broth and warm through over low heat 2 minutes until heated through, bringing the protein and fibre above a standard bowl.
6
Plate
Place the cooked egg noodles in a deep bowl and ladle the hot chicken curry broth over them. Top with the halved egg, shallot, pickled mustard greens, cilantro, crispy fried noodles, and a squeeze of lime juice.
