Note
If fresh rice-flour noodles (kanom jeen) are not available, use dried rice vermicelli or rice sticks. Blanch dried noodles in boiling water for a few minutes until soft, then drain.
Because of their length, kanom jeen are commonly served at family ceremonies, including marriages and birthdays; never broken until served, they signify long life.
For a vegan version, ensure the fish is substituted with tofu or tempeh, and check that all curry ingredients are plant-based.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently to prevent the fish from becoming tough.
