You can make this with any vegetables you want, you just need to adjust the cooking times.
Ingredients
- 2 14 oz cans coconut milk (unsweetened)
- 2 T (for spicier curries use more) curry paste
- 2 T fish sauce
- 2 T brown sugar
- vegetables, chopped into bite-sized pieces (sweet potato, green beans, red peppers, eggplant, tofu, etc.)
- fresh basil leaves for garnish (get thai basil if you can)
Instructions
- Spoon off about 1 cup of the solid layer of coconut cream at the top of the can. Heat cream and curry past in a large skillet and simmer on med-high heat, stirring, for about 5 minutes, until the mixture separates into colored oil and coconut solids and the curry paste is frying and aromatic.
- Stir in rest of the coconut milk, fish sauce, and brown sugar.
- Stir in vegetables and cook until done over med-low heat. (A good order is potatoes/turnip/carrots, then eggplant/beans/pepper, and lastly things like brocolli/mushroom.)
Serve with rice and torn basil for garnish.
