Thai Green Curry – Vegan Style

This vegan bowl of deliciousness is a vibrant and mouth-watering meal of Green Thai Curry served in a beautiful ceramic bowl or plate. The curry is a lush, creamy green colour, owing to the use of Thai green curry paste and coconut milk. The dish is garnished with fragrant Thai basil leaves, adding a pop of colour, fragrance and freshness.

Use a variety of vegetables, such as bell peppers in shades of red, yellow, and green, all cut into thin, bite-sized strips. Other vegetables, like tender-crisp courgette aubergine and broccoli, can be seen peeking through the rich curry sauce. The curry might be accompanied by a mound of steaming jasmine rice, invitingly plated on the side or in a separate bowl.
