Total Time: 35 minutes
Ingredients:
- 4 tablespoons Thai red curry paste
- 2 cans (400ml each) coconut milk
- 4 kaffir lime leaves
- 1 lemongrass stalk
- 2 Thai eggplants
- 200 grams snap peas
- 1 red bell pepper
- 1 cup baby corn
- 0.5 cup Thai basil leaves
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons palm sugar
Instructions:
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add Thai red curry paste and stir-fry for about 30 seconds.
- Add sliced lemongrass and kaffir lime leaves to the pan and sauté for another 1 minute.
- Add coconut milk and stir until well combined with the curry paste.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then add Thai eggplants, snap peas, red bell pepper, and baby corn.
- Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5-7 minutes, until vegetables are tender.
- Stir in Thai basil leaves, soy sauce, and palm sugar. Simmer for another 3 minutes, allowing sugar to dissolve and flavours to blend together.
- Taste the curry and adjust the flavor if needed: add more soy sauce for saltiness, palm sugar for sweetness, or curry paste for spiciness.
- Serve the Thai Exotic Vegetable Curry hot over jasmine rice.
