What You’ll Need
1 tbsp oil
1 tsp grated ginger
2 tsp finely chopped garlic
1 finely chopped red chilli
1/4 cup chopped onions
1 cup vegetables (broccoli, bell peppers, zucchini, green onions and carrots)
2 tbsp red Thai curry paste (any brand)
Lemongrass (optional)
200 ml of coconut milk
1/4 tsp soy sauce
1/2 tsp brown sugar (more if it’s too spicy)
Salt
Boiled noodles. (Any variety is okay! Hakka, rice noodles, potato starch or wheat)
For The Garnish
Fried garlic
Coriander
Lemon juice
Green onions
Here’s How You Can Put It All Together
Step 1
Heat a tbsp of oil in a pan, add the grated ginger, garlic and red chilli. Saute for 1 minute. Do not let it burn. Then add the onions and saute for 2 minutes till translucent.
Step 2
Then add 1 cup of chopped vegetables, any veggies you like. Here, we’ve used broccoli, peppers, zucchini, green onions and carrots. Sauté for 2 more minutes.
Step 3
Now add the Thai curry paste and cook for about a minute. You can reduce the amount as it could get really spicy.
Step 4
Add 1 cup of water to this and let the veggies simmer on a low flame for 5 minutes. At this point, you can even add a few stalks of lemongrass tied together for a more prominent taste.
Step 5
Finally, add the coconut milk, soy sauce, brown sugar and salt to taste and simmer for another 7-8 minutes. If the curry is too thick, add a little water to adjust the consistency. If you want you can add a little tofu or paneer to this is as well. Discard the lemongrass at this point.
Step 6
Boil the noodles, drain and divide into 2 bowls. Pour the curry over the noodles, garnish with fried garlic, coriander, green onions and a little bit of lemon juice and enjoy hot!
