  4. Return pan to medium heat. Add red curry paste and 2 tablespoons of the coconut milk and cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly, until fragrant. Add remaining coconut milk, fish sauce and lemon juice. Bring to a simmer then reduce heat to low.
  5. Add salmon to pan with Thai red curry sauce, ensuring salmon pieces are fully submerged. Cover with a lid and simmer for 2-3 minutes, until salmon is just cooked through. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  6. divide noodles and vegetable stir-fry between bowls. Top with salmon and spoon over Thai red curry sauce. Sprinkle over mung bean sprouts and serve with a lemon wedge on the side for squeezing.
