Restorative Ginger & Turmeric Noodle Soup

Ginger & Turmeric Curry Paste
4 medium garlic cloves, roughly chopped
5 medium shallots, roughly sliced
1 (3-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled & roughly sliced
3 serrano chiles, stems removed, roughly sliced
2 tsp fresh lime juice
2 tsp cumin
2 tsp turmeric
1 tsp coriander
1/4 cup coconut oil

Combine garlic, shallots, ginger, chiles, lime juice, cumin, turmeric, & coriander in a blender or food processor. Pulse until ingredients are finely chopped. Add coconut oil, pulse until ingredients form a smooth paste.

Garlic oil
¼ cup olive oil
1 large garlic clove, thinly chopped

Heat olive oil in a small saucepan over medium-high. Add the garlic slices & cook until sizzling, 30 seconds. As soon as you see any sign of browning, remove from heat immediately, as the garlic will continue to cook & turn completely golden in the hot oil.

Soup
1 Tbsp olive oil
4 cups vegetable stock
1 can coconut milk
10 ounces uncooked udon noodles
1 1/2 tsp fine sea salt, plus more for boiling noodles
1 bunch Swiss chard, stems removed, roughly chopped (sub bok choi, kale, or spinach)
2 scallions, finely chopped
1 cup fresh cilantro leaves
1 lime, quartered, for serving

Heat a deep, high-sided skillet over medium-high & drizzle with olive oil. Add 1/2 cup ginger-turmeric curry paste. Reduce heat to low & cook, stirring constantly, until aromatic, 2-3 minutes. Stir in vegetable stock & coconut milk. Let simmer for 6-8 minutes to allow the flavours to meld. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add noodles. Cook according to package directions for al dente. Drain & rinse under cold running water. Divide noodles evenly among 4 serving bowls. Season broth with salt. Turn off heat & stir in chard. To serve, ladle broth mixture over the noodles. Top with scallions & cilantro; drizzle with garlic oil. Serve with lime wedges.
