Curry laksa
From Burden's Landing
Malaysian street noodle soup. I'm making it for The Ghost Bride Release Party on August 23, 2013. I've only had it twice — once at Azalina's and once at Lime Tree Southeast Asian Kitchen — and I'm not familiar with the ingredients, so I'm going to improvise.
Garnished with sambal and cilantro.
