Ingredients
1 tbsp coconut oil
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp green curry paste (vegan)
1 can coconut milk (full-fat)
1 cup broccoli florets
1 cup bell peppers, sliced
1 cup zucchini, sliced
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves
1 tbsp soy sauce
Lime wedges for serving
Directions
- Heat the coconut oil in a large pan over medium heat. Sauté the onion and garlic until soft and fragrant, ensuring the flavors are well developed.
- Stir in the green curry paste and cook for 1 minute. This allows the paste to release its aromatic oils and intensify the curry’s flavor.
- Add the coconut milk and soy sauce, and then bring to a simmer. Stir well to combine, creating a rich and creamy base for the curry.
- Add the broccoli, bell peppers, and zucchini. Cook for 10-12 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still vibrant, absorbing the flavors of the curry
- Stir in fresh basil leaves and serve with lime wedges and steamed rice. This final touch adds freshness and brightness to the dish, making it irresistible
Notes
- For a milder version, reduce the amount of green curry paste or replace it with a small amount of mild curry powder. You can also steam the vegetables separately without the curry sauce for a plainer option. Serve the mild veggies and coconut milk sauce over rice for a dish that’s perfect for kids!
