Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup full-fat canned coconut milk Adds creaminess and depth.
  • 1 tbsp green curry paste (or curry paste of choice)
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil (or avocado oil)
  • 1 to 2 cups chopped raw vegetables (of choice)
  • 4 to 6 ounces animal protein (of choice)
  • 1 green onion (chopped, for garnish)
  • 2/3 cup cooked brown rice (to serve)

Instructions

  • Start by chopping your choice of vegetables and protein into bite-sized pieces. This ensures they cook evenly and quickly in the curry.
  • In a medium saucepan, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Allow it to melt and coat the bottom of the pan.
  • Once the oil is hot, add the green curry paste. Stir it into the oil for about 30 seconds until it becomes fragrant.
  • Pour in the full-fat coconut milk, stirring to combine with the curry paste. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
  • Add your chopped raw vegetables and protein to the saucepan. Stir well to coat everything in the creamy curry sauce. Allow it to simmer for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the protein is heated through.
  • Spoon your delicious curry over the cooked brown rice in a bowl.
  • Top with chopped green onions for a fresh burst of flavor. Dig in and enjoy your 15-Minute Thai Curry For One!
