Malaysian Laksa: Rich Coconut Curry Noodle Soup

Laksa is one of Southeast Asia's most complex and satisfying bowls, and building it from scratch is the kind of cooking that changes how you think about soup.

At The Culinary Studio, two Red Seal certified chefs have spent over 15 years teaching home cooks to cook with real confidence. This is that kind of class.

Wednesday June 17th | 12:00pm EST*

This live online Malaysian cooking class takes you through laksa from the ground up, starting with the paste that is the soul of the entire dish. Laksa is Malaysia's most iconic noodle soup, a collision of Chinese and Malay culinary traditions that produces something richer, more aromatic, and more layered than either cuisine achieves on its own.

The laksa paste is where Jody and Kirstie bring together curry paste with colourful spices and aromatics.   

From there you will learn how coconut milk behaves in a curry broth, how to coax maximum depth from your aromatics without losing their brightness, and how to bring the soup to that point where it is rich without being heavy. The balance between coconut fat, chili heat, and lime acid is the technique this class is built around.

The noodles, toppings, and finishing touches all have a role. You will understand what each element contributes and how to layer the bowl so every component earns its place.

This is a soup worth the effort, and once you have made it yourself, nothing from a packet will ever be good enough again.
