Ingredients
- For the Curry:
- 1/2 tbsp ghee or coconut oil
- 1/2 tbsp minced garlic
- 1/2 medium sweet onion, diced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced (about 1 cup)
- 1 medium orange bell pepper, sliced (about 1 cup)
- 10 oz package snow peas or sugar snap peas
- 1 1/2 cups thinly sliced lacinato kale
- 1 (13.5 oz) can coconut milk (full-fat is best but lite works too)
- 1 cup unsweetened almond or cashew milk
- 3 tbsp red curry paste
- 1/2 tsp turmeric
- 1/4 tsp fine sea salt
- 1/8 tsp cayenne (or to taste)
- For Serving:
- Brown rice, quinoa, or your favorite grain or riced vegetable
- Cilantro for garnish
Instructions
- Cook down the vegetables: In a large pot over medium heat, add the ghee or coconut oil, minced garlic, and diced onion. Stir frequently for about 2 minutes until softened. Add the sliced bell peppers, peas, and kale, and stir until everything is mixed well.
- Add liquids, seasonings, and simmer: Pour in the coconut milk and cashew milk, then add the red curry paste, turmeric, salt, and cayenne. Stir gently to combine. Let the mixture come to a simmer on medium-high heat, then lower the heat and simmer for 10–15 minutes until the vegetables are tender and the flavors have melded.
- Make grains: While the curry is simmering, prepare the rice (or quinoa) according to the package instructions.
- Serve: Spoon the cooked rice or grains into serving bowls. Use a large spoon to serve the red curry over the rice. Garnish with fresh cilantro, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- Add Protein: Stir in cooked tofu during the last 5 minutes of simmering for extra protein.
- Different Veggies: Swap or add other vegetables like zucchini, carrots, or eggplant for variety.
- More Spice: Adjust the cayenne or add fresh chili peppers if you like it spicier.
