📖 Instructions

1. Gather your ingredients: Chop all your vegetables (broccoli, carrots, bell peppers, onions and garlic) into bite-sized pieces. This ensures even cooking and makes it easier to eat. Mince the ginger and garlic. Set everything aside.
2. Prepare the curry paste: In a small bowl, mix together the red curry paste, soy sauce, and a tablespoon of water. This creates a flavorful base for your stir-fry. Make sure there are no lumps!
3. Heat the wok or large skillet: Place your wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the coconut oil and let it heat up for a minute. The oil should be shimmering but not smoking.
4. Sauté aromatics: Add the minced ginger and garlic to the hot oil. Stir-fry for about 30 seconds, until fragrant. Be careful not to burn them, as this will make the dish bitter.
5. Add the vegetables: Add the broccoli, carrots, and bell peppers to the wok. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes, until they are tender-crisp. You want them to retain some of their crunch.
6. Pour in the curry coconut sauce: Pour the curry paste mixture over the vegetables. Stir well to coat everything evenly. Then, pour in the coconut milk and bring to a simmer.
7. Simmer and thicken: Let the stir-fry simmer for about 5 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
8. Season to taste: Taste the stir-fry and adjust the seasoning as needed. You may want to add a pinch of salt, a squeeze of lime juice, or a dash of red pepper flakes for extra heat.
9. Serve and enjoy: Serve the Curried Coconut Dream Stir-Fry hot over rice or quinoa. Garnish with fresh cilantro, chopped peanuts, or a sprinkle of sesame seeds. Enjoy your flavorful and healthy meal!
10. Bonus Tip: if you want to serve it with quinoa instead of rice.
