Ingredients

Curry Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon oil for sauteeing
  • 2-3 cups of mixed vegetables onions, garlic, carrot, squash, potatoes
  • 1-2 Tablespoons Thai curry paste*
  • 1 cup rice or other grain bulgur, wheatberries
  • 1 cup leafy greens kale or spinach work great
  • Coconut milk

Optional Garnishes

  • Crushed peanuts
  • Chopped cashews
  • Scallions
  • Sesame seeds
  • Cilantro

Instructions

  • Heat a pan over medium heat, then add the oil and vegetables. Sautee until softened.
  • Add in the curry paste and stir to combine evenly. It may be a little lumpy, but will even out later when you add the milk and rice.
  • Mix in the rice and coconut milk. A small amount of coconut milk works well for flavor, while more (~ 1 cup) will result in more of a soup-y stir fry). Heat everything until warm and evenly cooked.
  • Add the leafy greens at the end, stirring for just a minute to wilt slightly.
  • Serve in bowls and garnish with all the things!

Notes

* The green curry paste shown above is pretty spicy so I used about 1 big Tablespoon. I find that some other curry pastes require more for more quantity for added flavor.
