Vegan Thai Red Curry
If you’re looking for hearty lunch/dinner ideas packed with veggies, this delicious Thai Red Curry is for you! Serve it alongside basmati rice and I’m sure you’ll want to make it again. 🙂
I first wanted to make my own red paste but couldn’t find all the necessary ingredients – so I ended up buying a small tub of it instead. 😅
You can easily find it in your local Asian groceries – just make sure it’s vegan.
