Thai Coconut Noodle Soup with Tofu and Bamboo Shoots

It’s soup season, so what better way to warm up on a cold day, than with a big bowl of noodle soup. This is no ordinary noodle soup though, it is coconut milk based soup, with a hint of spice (add more chili powder if you like heat – I am feeding two young kids, so I tend to go easy on the heat), packed with bamboo shoots and tofu. I added some chopped kale and cauliflower to the next day’s leftovers as well, which was quite tasty.
