Thai Green Curry with Spring Vegetables #vegetables #caulilflower #mushroom #easy #dinner
I've been on a vegetable-pressed coconut curry kick of late—they're only the ideal progress nourishment for this season. This vegan Thai green curry formula includes new asparagus, carrots and spinach in a delectable green coconut sauce. It's loaded with flavor and basic enough for weeknight meals.
I utilized locally acquired Thai curry glue rather than crude fixings, since a few (like galangal) are hard to discover and tedious to get ready. I've viewed a culinary expert get ready curry glue in Thailand, and he truly burned some serious calories! So while this formula isn't impeccably legitimate, it's significantly simpler to make.
This curry depends on my old Thai green curry formula. I cherished the base formula for that dish (I figured out how to make it at a fun cooking class), however I was never entirely fulfilled by my decision of blend ins.
So here we are, after three years, with an improved and extra-green rendition. This time, I picked asparagus (snow peas would likewise work), carrots and shriveled spinach. I love it, and I figure you will, as well!

- 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped

- 3 carrots, peeled and sliced on the diagonal into ¼-inch wide rounds (to yield about 1 cup sliced carrots)

- 1 can (14 ounces) coconut milk (I used full-fat coconut milk for a richer curry)
- ½ cup water
- 1 ½ teaspoons coconut sugar or turbinado (raw) sugar or brown sugar

- 1 ½ teaspoons soy sauce** (I used reduced-sodium tamari)

INSTRUCTIONS
- To cook the rice, bring a large pot of water to boil. Add the rinsed rice and continue boiling for 30 minutes, reducing heat as necessary to prevent overflow. Remove from heat, drain the rice and return the rice to pot. Cover and let the rice rest for 10 minutes or longer, until you’re ready to serve.
- Warm a large skillet with deep sides over medium heat. Once it’s hot, add a couple teaspoons of oil. Cook the onion, ginger and garlic with a sprinkle of salt for about 5 minutes, stirring often. Add the asparagus and carrots and cook for 3 more minutes, stirring occasionally. Then add the curry paste and cook, stirring often, for 2 minutes.
- Pour the coconut milk into the pan, along with ½ cup water and 1 ½ teaspoons sugar. Bring the mixture to a simmer. Reduce heat as necessary to maintain a gentle simmer and cook until the carrots and asparagus are tender and cooked through, about 5 to 10 minutes.
- Once the vegetables are done cooking, stir the spinach into the mixture and cook until the spinach has wilted, about 30 seconds. Remove the curry from heat and season with rice vinegar and soy sauce. Add salt and red pepper flakes (optional), to taste. Divide rice and curry into bowls and garnish with chopped cilantro and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes, if you’d like.
