From the Test Kitchen

Thai curries are known for their delicious balance of spicy, sweet and savory flavors. Here, we’re capturing that combination in a quick stir-fry. We’re simmering crisp shrimp and tender rice noodles in a broth of red curry paste (made with red chile peppers and heady spices) and rich coconut milk, rounded out with a refreshing splash of lime juice. Springtime pea shoots make for an elegant, delicate garnish.

3 Cook the aromatics:

While the noodles cook, in a large, high-sided pan, heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the white bottom of the scallion; cook, stirring frequently, 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until fragrant. Add as much of the curry paste as you’d like, depending on how spicy you’d like the dish to be; cook, stirring frequently, 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until fragrant.

Add the collard greens:
4 Add the collard greens:

Rinse the cooked noodles under warm water to loosen them; drain thoroughly. Add the rinsed noodles and half the reserved cooking water to the pan; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, 2 to 4 minutes, or until thoroughly combined. (If the sauce seems dry, gradually add the remaining cooking water to achieve your desired consistency.) Turn off the heat.

Enjoy!
