- To the blender add the garlic, ginger, chillis, coriander and basil along with the mint, onion, lime zest and juice with the fish sauce, the spices and the oil.
- Blend to form a paste. Heat a large pan or wok over a high heat before adding the paste and frying until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
- Pour in the coconut milk and stir through to form a sauce. Roughly chop the extra coriander and mix through the mince before shaping into small balls, just slightly smaller than a ping-pong ball.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the chicken balls, simmer for 2 minutes before adding the spinach, corn and beans. Simmer for another 2 minutes before turning the heat off.
- Prepare the noodles according to the packet instructions.
- For the fragrant sprinkle: Add the ingredients to the pan over a medium heat and toast for a few minutes until golden and fragrant.
- Serve the curry over the noodles and top with the sprinkle before garnishing with the spring onions, basil and coriander.
