This is a super easy and quick dish which tastes better than your regular Thai take out. Use beef or chicken or go veggie only – whatever you prefer. The coconut sauce and the brown sugar give it a rich and flavorful taste.
Preparation time: 35 minutes
What you need:
1 ½ cups (about 100-130g) broccoli florets
1 cup snow peas
1 cup mushrooms, quartered
1 onion, chopped
2 green onions, thinly sliced
1 pound (500g) beef, thinly sliced (you can substitute with chicken)
Salt & pepper to taste
1 tablespoon oil
3 tablespoons fresh ginger, peeled and finely chopped
1 ½ tablespoons Thai red curry paste
1 tablespoon fish sauce (optional)
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 can (14oz/ 400ml) coconut milk
¼ cup (40g) cashews, more if you like
How to do it:
Slice beef thinly and season with a bit of salt and pepper, set aside.
Heat oil over medium heat and cook onions until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add beef, ginger and garlic and cook for about 3-4 minutes
Stir in red curry paste, fish sauce, brown sugar, a pinch of salt, and coconut milk and mix well.
And broccoli, snow peas and mushrooms and let simmer until it thickens up – about 4-5 minutes. Make sure the broccoli doesn’t overcook.
Add more chili and salt according to your taste and mix in the cashews.
Sprinkle green onions on top and serve over rice – Jasmin rice is best.
Enjoy!
