gently on a medium heat for a minute. Lightly crush the lemon grass stalks
with a rolling pin or large knife blade.
2 Add the lemon grass, kaffir lime leaves and stock to the pan, boil and
simmer for 10 minutes. Drop the noodles into boiling water, take off the
heat and soak for four minutes, drain.

over the coriander leaves and serve.
