Before you start
Food processor l Wok
Make a paste
- Finely chop the garlic, ginger, shallots, galangal, chillies and put all the paste ingredients in a food processor & whizz them up into a thick paste (you may need to use a bit of water to loose the paste up)
Fry the paste
- Warm the olive oil in a wok, add the paste, stir it round & release the aromas (your kitchen is going to smell heavenly!)
Make the curry
- Add the coconut milk, stir and cook it so the paste infuses into the milk, and you have a lovely lush green sauce
Adding veggies
- Add the vegetables and cook them until they’re as soft (or as hard) as you like them (some people like their crunchier than others)
Time to serve
- Serve over basmati, garnish with red chillies
