Preparation

    Spicy, fragrant and full of zing, this Thai-style soup is bulked out with rice to keep you feeling fuller for longer.

  1. Put the rice in a saucepan and fill with water. Bring to a simmer and simmer for 25-30 minutes, until cooked.

  2. Meanwhile, grate the garlic and ginger for warmth. Heat the sesame oil in a large, deep frying pan or wok and fry the garlic and ginger gently for 1-2 minutes. Add the turmeric and curry paste and continue to cook for a further 2 minutes.

  3. Cut the chicken into chunky pieces and add these to the pan. Stir fry in the paste for 3-4 minutes, or until browned all over. Add the stir-fry vegetables and fry for 2 minutes, then add the creamy coconut milk and stock. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.

  4. Add the mange tout, bean sprouts and lime juice and continue to cook for 2 minutes. When the rice is cooked, drain and add to the pan. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with coriander. Serve with extra lime wedges for added zing.

  5. 2 of your 5-aday! High protein, low sat fat.
