Recipe Directions

BROTH

1. Add coconut and water to a high-speed blender, and blend until it starts to get warm.

2. Add rest of ingredients to your coconut milk and blend again until it warms up (not too hot!).

NOODLE BOWL

3. In 2 bowls, evenly divide noodles, mushrooms, carrot, and cilantro.

4. Pour warm broth over noddle/veggie mixture, then top each bowl with 1/2 cup of diced tomatoes.

HydroJen's Thoughts

By HydroJen

It can be hard to find organic young coconuts sometimes, and frankly, I wanted something faster that I didn't have to chisel apart!

This spicy Thai style soup is made from dried shredded coconut, and blended up in a jiffy!

I poured it over (not raw) rice vermicelli noodles, but this could easily be put over kelp noodles or zucchini noodles.

I'll bet straining it through a sieve would help with that.

This was RAWmazing!

Ok so I cheated a little. I tried the dried coconut but it was chunky in my blender and when I tried straining it I ended up with little more than a cup of liquid. So I used a can of organic coconut milk instead. It is a lighter coconut milk at 35% and has no preservatives.

It was absolutely delicious! I LOVE Thai food and I am so glad that I have something I can make when I am craving it. It had just the right amount of spice and the flavours were well balanced.

So glad I have some broth left over for tomorrow!

Hi Maryssa,

I would think making the milk first then straining would help! I found that it was pretty smooth - but then again, I used my VitaMix... do you have a high-speed blender? If not, go to the nut-milk bag approach before you add the other ingredients!

I made it again the other night and used kelp noodles - yum! Totally like using thin rice noodles, and they really soak up the coconut-ey goodness! :)

This was good! I liked some scallions in mine. I also had the problem with coconut flakes, so I think I'll strain it next time. Thanks for the recipe!

I made this for my family and they all loved it. This tastes just wonderful and we will definitely make this again. I used a mild curry powder for my youngest daughters soup. :) I had very juicy limes and ended up using only 1 lime for a serving of four. For veggies I used baby bok choy, mung bean sprouts, celery, cilantro, and chopped macadamia's. Thanks for this recipe. Delish!

Thanks, Raw Curls. I tried that too actually. The only problem with that was I felt I was losing too much of the mass of the soup. Maybe I should try to make a coconut milk first by blending with water and straining through a nut milk bag. Then I could use that as the base of the soup, and blend everything else in. I'd love to hear more ideas also!

HydroJen, were you able to get the dried coconut fully blended? I tried this and it was all lumpy. I had friends coming over (non-raw) so I freaked and made another batch with canned (yikes) coconut milk. It was delicious, but I want to make it can-free! Any suggestions? Oh, and I used kelp noodles which was great! My first time using them and I think I'm in love ;)

This recipe is AMAZING. Very easy and it tastes "real" if you use all the spice ingredients (for veggies I just did carrot shavings, tomato, and cilantro). I'm so in love - thanks so much for posting. Def going to be making this a lot.
