Step 1

Heat oil in a skillet over high heat. Add garlic and cook for 20 seconds until it turns golden.

Step 2

Add chicken mince and cook for 2 minutes, breaking it up as you go, until it mostly changes from pink to white.

Step 3

Add 1 tbsp red curry paste, curry powder and soy sauce. Cook for 1 minute.

Step 4

Clear a space in the middle of the pan, add remaining 1/2 tbsp curry paste, stir the curry paste for 30 seconds.

Step 5

Add chicken stock, bring to a simmer then reduce to medium-high. Simmer for 1 minute.

Step 6

Squish the noodle cakes in, pushing chicken aside so the noodles are as submerged as possible.

Step 7

Leave to cook for 45 seconds, then flip noodles. Leave for another 30 seconds, then separate the noodles with 2 wooden spoons.

Step 8

Push noodles aside, add coconut milk, peanut butter and vinegar, then give it a quick mix to mostly dissolve the peanut butter.

Step 9

Add spinach, toss with the noodles for 30 seconds until wilted. Make sure it's still pretty saucy - everybody loves sauce!

Step 10

Transfer to serving bowls, sprinkle with coriander, peanuts and Sriracha or chilli paste if desired.
