Instructions
- 1
Heat coconut oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
- 2
Stir in minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for another minute until fragrant.
- 3
Add the green curry paste and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, to toast the spices and deepen the flavor.
- 4
Pour in the full-fat coconut milk and vegetable broth, stirring well to combine with the curry paste. Bring to a gentle simmer.
- 5
Add the cubed tofu and your mixed vegetables. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until vegetables are tender-crisp.
- 6
Stir in soy sauce (or tamari), brown sugar (or maple syrup), and lime juice. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed – you might want a bit more lime or sugar to balance the flavors.
- 7
Remove from heat and stir in the fresh basil leaves until just wilted.
- 8
Serve hot over fluffy jasmine rice, and prepare for a flavor explosion!
Pro Tips
This recipe packs 25g of protein per serving. For even more protein, add a scoop of plant-based protein powder or extra beans.
If you have a wok, use it. The high heat and shape create better texture and flavor development than a regular pan.
Taste as you go and adjust seasoning before serving. Plant-based dishes often benefit from a squeeze of lemon or a pinch of salt at the end.
