Method

  1. Step 1

    Place the meatballs and curry paste in a medium bowl and, wearing gloves to protect your hands, use your hands to mix until well combined. Shape the mixture into 8 small flat rissoles.

  2. Step 2

    Add enough oil to a large frying pan to reach 1cm up the side of the pan. Place over medium-high heat. Cook the rissoles, turning, for 10 mins or until browned and cooked through.

  3. Step 3

    Meanwhile, place the noodles in a heatproof bowl and cover with boiling water. Set aside for 5 mins or until soft. Drain well.

  4. Step 4

    Arrange lettuce leaves on a large serving platter. Divide the noodles, carrot and rissoles among the lettuce leaves. Drizzle with coconut milk. Sprinkle with the peanuts, chilli, if using, and coriander sprigs. Serve with the sweet chilli sauce.

Got leftover steamed or fried rice that needs using up? Either makes a great substitute for the noodles.
