Grab your chopsticks and slurp away because this bowl of noodle soup is so aromatic and packed full of delicious goodness. Enjoy!

THE PEANUT SATAY SOUP BASE

INGREDIENTS YOU’LL NEED

Here’s what you’ll need for the soup base! All these together create a really rich and fragrant broth.

FOR THE BROTH:

  • neutral oil
  • grated or minced ginger
  • garlic, minced
  • peanut butter, I used chunky peanut butter
  • curry powder
  • coconut sugar, or palm sugar
  • vegetable broth (see recipe notes)
  • soy sauce
  • vegan fish sauce (see recipe notes)
  • Chili sauce or chili oil, for spice
  • coconut cream (see notes for coconut milk alternative)
  • lime juice, plus more to finish
  • Salt, to taste

The full detailed recipe is down below!

AN IMPORTANT NOTE ON THE CURRY POWDER:

There are a lot of different types of curry powder mixes from Indian to Thai so I would suggest getting a Southeast Asian curry powder mix if you have access to one or see any at your local Asian grocery. Indian curry mixes are a lot stronger and have a different flavour profile to Southeast Asian or Thai mixes so this could change the taste of your soup.

FOR A GLUTEN-FREE VERSION

You can also make this recipe gluten-free by using tamari instead of soy sauce.

I cooked down the peanut butter with the curry powder in the pot.

Afterwards, I added in the broth and mix it all really well.

The broth turned out really silky from the coconut cream, which I really loved!

Give everything a good mix and then leave it to simmer for a few minutes.

Photographed below are the shallots, ginger, and garlic! These are Asian shallots and they’re much smaller than regular shallots. They’re around the same size as cloves of garlic!

I finely minced the ginger and garlic then thinly sliced the Asian shallots.

PEANUTS AND PEANUT BUTTER

I used chunky peanut butter for the broth and roasted peanuts to finish this bowl of noodles. I love using chunky peanut butter because I love the bite from the little bits, but you can also opt to use smooth or creamy peanut butter.

MUSHROOMS (OR PROTEIN OF CHOICE)

I personally love the texture of oyster mushrooms so much! But you’re of course free to use other mushrooms of your choice.

Other mushrooms like button, shiitake, shimeji, etc would work great too. You can also use tofu for this recipe, if you’d like!

I cooked the mushrooms and topeed it over my noodles before mixing everything together.

RICE NOODLES

I highly recommend the thinner (3mm to 5mm) rice noodles for this recipe. I’ve tried both the thinner and wider rice noodles and find that the thinner the rice noodles the better! But of course it’s a personal preference and you can even use other noodles such as vermicelli or wheat noodles.

Rice noodles – 3mm, 5mm, 10mm

PREPARING THE RICE NOODLES

Overall, I find that the rice noodles work best for this recipe because of how chewy they are! I just simply soaked mine in hot water until chewy and half-cooked.

I set these aside in a bowl and added it to the soup later on.

Adding the noodles into the soup cooks down the noodles a bit more and the noodles absorb the flavours too!

These are thinner 3mm rice noodles

ENJOY YOUR BOWL OF PEANUT SATAY NOODLE SOUP!

And don’t forget to finish that flavourful soup off with some of the mushrooms, crispy shallots, and some chili sauce/oil if you’d like.

This is really so good and so satisfying. You’ll find the full vegan recipe for this bowl of cozy noodles down below!

Ingredients
 
 

Noodles

  • 6.5 oz dry rice noodles I used 5mm thick noodles

Mushrooms and Shallots

  • 7 oz fresh oyster mushrooms or other mushroom of choice
  • Neutral oil for cooking
  • soy sauce to taste
  • 5 small Asian shallots thinly sliced

Soup Base

  • 1 tbsp neutral oil
  • 1/2 tbsp finely grated or minced ginger
  • 5 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp peanut butter , I used chunky peanut butter (see notes)
  • 1/2 tbsp curry powder (see notes)
  • 1 tbsp coconut sugar or palm sugar (see notes)
  • 2 1/2 cups vegetable broth see notes
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce or tamari for gluten-free option
  • 1 tbsp vegan fish sauce or sub soy sauce (see notes) homemade fish sauce recipe here
  • 3/4 cup coconut cream , unsweetened (see notes for coconut milk alternative)
  • 1 tbsp lime juice (optional)
  • Chili garlic sauce , sirracha, or chili oil for spice (optional), see homemade chili garlic sauce recipe here
  • Salt to taste

To Serve

  • Chopped scallion
  • Fresh Thai basil leaves
  • Roasted peanuts chopped
  • Fresh lime juice
  • More chili sauce or chili oil to finish, homemade chili garlic sauce recipe here

Instructions
 

Noodles

  • Place the noodles in a large heat proof bowl. Pour boiling hot water in the bowl until the noodles are completely submerged. Mix the noodles around a bit and leave to soak for 15 to 20 minutes or until the noodles are pliable and the noodles are chewy.
    Alternatively, you can also opt to just cook down the dried noodles directly in the soup later on!
  • They’ll turn while and no longer translucent once chewy. Remove the noodles from the water and then set aside.
  • Other option: You can quickly boil the noodles until cooked to your liking.

Mushrooms and Shallots

  • Heat a large pot over high heat (note: this will be the same pot used for the soup later on for minimal clean-up).
  • Once hot, add a little oil then add in the mushrooms. Sauté until lightly browned on each side, around 3 to 4 minutes on each side.
  • Season the mushrooms with a little soy sauce and then cook down for a few more minutes. Set the mushrooms aside on a small plate.
  • In the same pot, add more neutral oil. Allow to heat over medium to medium high heat.
  • Once hot, add in the sliced shallots.
  • Move around the shallots in the oil until golden brown. (Don’t burn them like I did haha). Remove the shallots from the oil and set aside. They will continue to crisp up as they cool.
    Don’t cover the shallots so they stay crispy.

Soup Base

  • Remove most of the oil in the pot. I kept around 1 tbsp of the oil. In the same pot over high heat, add in the ginger and garlic.
  • Sauté until aromatic, 2 minutes.
  • Add in the peanut butter, curry powder, and sugar.
  • Mix until well-incorporated.
  • Pour in the vegetable broth, soy sauce, vegan fish sauce, and mix well. Cover the pot and leave to simmer until it boils, around 5 minutes.
  • Once it boils, lower the heat to medium and then pour in the coconut cream and lime juice. Taste the soup and season with salt or more soy sauce, if needed.
  • Leave the soup to simmer for 2 to 3 more minutes. Taste the soup and feel free to adjust to your taste by adding more soy sauce, sugar, or lime juice.
  • Add in the lime juice and chili sauce, if using, then mix well with the soup.
  • Add in the soaked noodles.
  • Leave for 1-2 minutes for the noodles to cook a bit more. You can also just place the cooked noodles in a large bowl and then pour over the soup when it's very hot.
  • Note: the noodles will cook down a little bit more from the hot soup.

To Serve

  • Top the noodle soup with the mushrooms, crisp shallots, roasted peanuts, chopped scallion, Thai basil leaves, and chili oil before being finished with a squeeze of lime juice if you'd like.

  • Enjoy while hot!

Notes

Peanut Butter and Sugar
  • I recommend using plain unsweetened peanut butter. 
  • If using one that’s lightly sweetened, you can skip the sugar or just adjust depending on your preference. You can also add more soy sauce or vegan fish sauce to counter the sweetness. 

Curry Powder:
  • There are a lot of different types of curry powder mixes from Indian to Thai so I would suggest getting a Southeast Asian curry powder mix if you have access to one or see any at your local Asian grocery. Indian curry mixes are a lot stronger and are spicier compared to Southeast Asian or Thai mixes so this could change the taste of your soup.
  • I use a Filipino curry powder that’s very mild in spice or not spicy at all (at least for me) especially when compared to Indian curry powder. I get local curry powder mixes in my local market or groceries in the Philippines and find that the main components are turmeric (gives the curry the distinct yellow colour), cumin, coriander seeds, black pepper, mustard, and a few other key spices.
  • I’ve tried both Mccormick and Simply Organics curry powders and both are a great blend of spices and both are mild in spice.
 
Vegetable broth:
  • You can also use water with 1 vegetable cube or bouillon. I like to use Edward and Son’s Vegetable Cubes. 
Vegan fish sauce:
  • You can see my homemade fish sauce recipe here. You can also substitute the vegan fish sauce with more soy sauce, to taste.
 
Coconut cream:
  • You can substitute the coconut cream with 1 cup of coconut milk then lessen the vegetable broth to 2 cups. Make sure your coconut cream is unsweetened. If using sweetened coconut milk or cream, you can skip the sugar and adjust to your taste.

        Super easy and definitely versatile (i had mushrooms and leftover asparagus, i would probably make a winter version with squash and cauliflower, i also think other noodles would suit too). Perfectly seasoned as it is, i will certainely add a red chili next time

    Just made this for lunch today. I have to say that the flavor combinations are quite odd as it tastes like both Indian curry and Thai curry. I think it’s the curry powder that definitely throws this off. However it’s pretty filling for a noodle soup. Unfortunately I wouldn’t make this again. ☹️

    1. Jeeca June 14, 2021 Reply

      Hi Michelle! Might be due to the curry powder used too, since some mixes (especially Indian curry powder mixes) are different from Southeast Asian ones. Appreciate the feedback!! ◡̈

    Would malaysian “meat” curry powder work?

    1. Jeeca August 7, 2021 Reply

      Hmm I think it should be okay! You can try it out by halving the measurement first to see if the curry flavour is enough then just add more if you want 🙂

    Hi!! I love your recipes and I’m so excited to make this one but I was wondering what brand of chili oil/chili sauce do you use? Thanks xx

    1. Jeeca September 9, 2021 Reply

      Hi Rina! I have quite a few chili sauces here that I like to use. For the topping, I actually used Japanese chili oil or layu. I get the brand S&B. I also like to use my homemade chili garlic sauce or even sriracha. You can find the chili garlic sauce recipe here: https://thefoodietakesflight.com/chili-garlic-sauce/ hope this helps 🙂

    Made this this evening and it was delicious! Was in the mood for noodles today and so bought a very average meal for lunch and was completely unsatisfied – so I decided to Google “peanut noodle recipe” and I found this and it was really delicious! Never had anything like it. Think I would toss in some firm tofu next time for a bit of a protein boost – but it turned out very nicely, even though I was a bit fast and loose with the recipe precision. Thanks heaps!

    My family, baby included, loved this recipe. Super delicious, nutritious, easy, and can be quick depending on how you do things. First, I don’t use nonstick cookware in order to avoid PTFE & PFAS, so in a ceramic pot this one-pot method didn’t work out. Too much mushroom and soy sauce burning at the bottom by the time you’re supposed to sautée the ginger and garlic. It also took way longer to cook the mushrooms and shallots than indicated. So, I suggest using a different pan for the mushrooms. Meanwhile, do the shallots in the soup pot and proceed as advised. A note about frying the shallots: they don’t become crispy in the pan. Only after they’re out of the pan and cool do they crisp up. Also, they keep cooking well after you’ve removed them from the heat. So take them out when they are golden but not brown.

    Absolutely adored this recipe – thank you for sharing! I personally like my food with a bit more kick so I added extra curry powder but otherwise this dish is so delicious! Will be making it many more times, I’m sure.

    Loved this! Second recipe of yours i made this week (the curried chickpeas are great too). I wanted more broth so i doubled it. Was unable to find the right curry powder so I used paste. It seems to have worked well but i have nothing to compare it to haha. I also opted to cook the noodles in the broth but I would not do that next time as it dried up the broth 🙁 but delicious none the less. Thank you!

      Hi Stevie, glad you liked it! And yes, I don’t recommend cooking the noodles in the broth since this’ll absorb a lot of it! I soak it in hot water until almost cooked before adding it to cook further. ◡̈ thanks so much for tying this recipe out btw!

    So delicious! I made this without the coconut cream and fish sauce cuz I didn’t have any. I also stir fried a bunch of different veggies instead of just mushrooms, and this meal turned out splendid! Thank you 😊

      Ooh hope you enjoyed the broth without the coco cream! So something a bit lighter too ◡̈ hehe thank you Maneesha!!

    Made this last night and it was excellent + quick! My only addition – we saved the fried shallot oil and used it as a topping when serving. My toddler loved helping and ate his entire bowl. Adding to our rotation!

      Thats a great idea! And so happy you enjoyed this ◡̈ thanks for giving it a try!

    Hi! The curry powder you linked is an Indian one but your notes suggest to use a non-Indian one. Could you share which one you use at home? Excited to make this!
    Thanks!

    1. Jeeca January 29, 2023 Reply

      Hi Shahina! I’ve actually used the exact same simply organics one for this recipe and turned out great. I can’t say it’s exactly an Indian curry powder actually. Another option i can recommend is the curry powder from Mccormick, which is a brighter yellow. Hope this helps ◡̈

        So following up with a question before I make this… could I sub in Thai curry paste instead of a curry powder? I’d probably have to modify the amount since I know the paste is quite potent

        1. Jeeca January 8, 2024 Reply

          Hi Desiree, yes that could work too. You may have to start with half the amount and stir-fry it in oil to get the flavors out. Then adjust from there as needed ◡̈

    I’m going to make this but was going to try to substitute the yellow curry paste we have for the curry powder. Any idea as to how much to use?

    1. Jeeca February 19, 2023 Reply

      Hi Collin! You can use the same amount or even more. It’ll just be the spice that might make a difference since some yellow curry pastes can be quite hot. Hope this helps! ◡̈

    Yum! This turned out so good and is exactly what I was looking for. I made and used a Vietnamese curry powder and used crushed peanuts instead of peanuts butter and it was perfect! I also added cauliflower and kale along with the mushrooms. Thank you 🙏🏼 ☺️

    1. Jeeca June 30, 2023 Reply

      The cauliflower and mushrooms are a great addition! Glad you liked it ◡̈

    I made gave a little twist to this recipe and it was awesome.

    For the noodles I used somen. For the curry base I swapped out the ginger and curry powder with 1 tbsp galangal, a pinch of lemongrass, 1 tsp coriander seeds, 1/2 tsp toasted cumin, 2 tbsp soy (omitted the fish sauce). And I blended the soup with a food processor to make it smoother.

    It was really good. Like a peanutty Laksa.

      Hi Michael, this sounds amazing!! Great substitutions. I’ll have to give this a try with galangal and lemongrass next time. Thanks!

    This was fantastic. Didn’t have enough mushrooms so tossed in some assorted other veg too (peppers, peas, etc.). I also used udon noodles instead and it was still delicious.

    Very nice, as usual! Used Rogan Josh currypaste (whatever that is) and 90% fat coconut cream

    just tried this recipe today and it was delicious! i followed the recipe to the dot and it tasted sweet in the beginning, i think it was because of my choice of peanut butter so maybe my advice would be to add the coconut sugar at the end. i adjusted the taste by adding curry powder, soy sauce and fish sauce. i also wish i had chili oil on hand, i only had chili powder and the spiciness was not enough. will definitely make this again!

      Hey Mia! Thanks for this tip, I’ll be sure to note it on the recipe to be sure. Glad you liked it! 🙂

    This was so tasty and comforting! I didn’t read the note about reducing the amount of water/broth if you were using coconut milk (instead of coconut cream) until it was too late, so I just ended up with a lot of soup, lol. So, it wasn’t the worst thing (I am just SO full) — I’ll just adjust the amounts next time I make this. Another hit recipe, Jeeca!

      Hey Wini, thanks for giving this a try and glad it still turned out great 🙂

    Thank you so much for this delicious recipe. It is currently helping me fight off a mean cold. The soup is so rich and nourishing and I love the combination of flavours and textures. I had it with king oyster mushrooms, smoked tofu and Szechuan chili oil. Thanks again for providing amazing recipes for free 😊

    Hi! My boyfriend is adamant about protein – is there a particular meat you’d recommend for this recipe 🙂

      Hi Jena! You can use tofu, chicken, pork, it’s really up to you! Toppings are totally depending on your preference 🙂

    Hi Jeeca, I was having a very emotionally draining day and I saw this recipe on IG. It looked so sweet and tart and rich and flavorful I decided to make it even if I didn’t have every
    ingredient. I just made some substitutions, fried up some tofu for protein, some baby bok choi for veggies and put it together. It was SO yummy and satisfying. So many complementary flavors and so much flavor! I LOVED it. I know it’s a classic but one everyone should have in their repertoire. Lovely.

      Hey Ajnira, I hope you’re feeling better! Thanks so much for leaving this review, really made me happy reading it. And I’m so glad you enjoyed this recipe! Take care always 🧡

    I want to try this soup but wondering what I could substitute for scallions if I can’t find them.

    1. Jeeca January 27, 2025 Reply

      Hi! For the scallions for garnish, you can omit it if you can’t find any. Or do you mean the fried shallots?
