I used to use herbies Laksa spice mix before I got a Thermie now I can make my own tmrc_emoticons.-)

So you could mill your own too -start with all whole dry spices heat them up to 100 degrees for 2 mins & mill them for 1 min on speed 10.

This is not at all a traditional Laksa, but a family favourite with whatever veg we have on hand.

    This was so yummy however found it to be more of a curry than a laksa. Would definitely still do it again though.

    Excellent flavour. A cup of water mixed with some additional vege stock paste or a cup of chicken stock would make it closer to a traditional laksa consistency, but this recipe is great as meal over vermicelli noodles.

    This was ok, I felt it was overcooked and I cut the time back by 3 minutes. I liked the concept of steaming veggies to add to the Laksa.

    Best Laksa i've ever made! didn't have a couple of ingredients but still delicious. Was a bit thick as previous commenter adviced. Used 2 x 270 cans of coconut cream and served with vermicelli noodles.

    really super delicious but not really laksa consistency, very thick.

    We enjoyed it as a curry with brown rice noodles. 

    Thanks so much!
