To make the spice paste, blend the lemongrass hearts, chillies, ginger, galangal, shrimp paste, shallots, garlic and oil.
Add the coriander, turmeric, sugar and water and blend at the highest speed to form a smooth paste. Scoop into a glass jar and chill until required.
To make the coconut broth, heat the peanut oil in a large saucepan over a medium to high heat, then stir in the spice paste. Keep stirring for about 3 minutes until the mixture has browned slightly. Pour in the coconut milk, bring to a simmer, reduce the heat, stir in the herbs and fish sauce, and simmer for 5 minutes. Strain and keep warm.
To assemble, wilt the tatsoi over a medium heat in the peanut oil and season to taste.
Warm the noodles in boiling water, toss with the wilted tastoi and divide equally among 4 large soup or noodle bowls. Arrange the seafood over the noodles and spoon over the sauce.
Top with fresh coriander and serve with sambal or garlic-chilli hot sauce, crispy shallots and lime wedges.
