Laksa is a hearty soup with tons of flavour. This version uses sous vide salmon so that there is no risk of overcooking the fish – instead it’s silky and succulent. There's also a great variety of textures to keep every bite interesting.

Ingredients for 2

  • 1 (12-ounce) salmon filet, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces

  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

  • 8 tablespoons laksa paste

  • 2 shallots, thinly sliced

  • 2 cups chicken stock

  • 2 cups coconut milk

  • 4 kaffir lime leaves, torn in half

  • 2 (2-ounce) egg noodle nests

  • 1 cup bean sprouts, for serving

  • 1/4 cup roughly chopped cilantro, for serving

  • 2 tablespoons deep fried shallots, for serving

  • 2 Thai chiles, roughly chopped, for serving

Directions

  • Step 1

    Set the Anova Sous Vide Precision Cooker to 131ºF (55ºC).

  • Step 2

    Lightly season the salmon with salt and pepper and place in a large zipper lock or vacuum seal bag. Seal the bag using the water immersion method or a vacuum sealer on the moist setting. Place the bag in the water bath and set the timer for 15 minutes.

  • Step 3

    While the salmon is cooking, prepare the curry: Place laksa paste in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Fry the laksa paste until fragrant, about 1 minute.

  • Step 4

    Add the shallots, stir to coat with the laksa paste, and sauté until soft, about 2 minutes. Stir in the chicken stock, coconut milk, and kaffir lime leaves. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to medium, and cook for 5 minutes.

  • Step 5

    While the curry is simmering, prepare the noodles in a separate pot according to package directions. Drain, rinse, and divide between 2 serving bowls.

    • Finishing Steps

    • Step 0

      When the timer goes off, remove the bag from the water bath. Remove the salmon from the bag and set in a small bowl.

    • Step 1

      Pour the curry sauce over the noodles and top with salmon. Garnish curry with bean sprouts, cilantro, shallots, and Thai chiles. Serve.
