We are crazy about Thai noodle bowls! Our Product Development chef, Devika lived in Thailand for a few months while working at Gaggan, a two Michelin star Indian restaurant. This recipe is based on her memory of Chiang Mai noodles. Our Coconut Curry with its notes of zesty lemongrass and sweet coconut is the perfect base for this delicious recipe.

Serves 2-3

Ingredients

5oz Asian wheat noodles (lo mein) or fettuccini

2 tbsp neutral oil, divided

3-4 baby bok choy, halved lengthwise

½ cup sliced onion

1 cup sliced mushrooms (shiitake or cremini)

In the same skillet, heat remaining oil and add the onions and mushrooms and cook for 5-6 mins until they are golden.
