BEST VEGETARIAN THAI GREEN CURRY RECIPE (Creamy, aunthentic & easy)

“Cooked for lunch… gone in minutes!” 😄🍃

That’s exactly what happened with this creamy Vegetarian Thai Green Curry, every last spoonful polished off!

There’s something irresistible about Thai food, the burst of aromas, the riot of colours, and the balance of flavours. And this dish brings it all together beautifully. 💚

What makes it truly special? A fresh, homemade green curry paste👆, packed with herbs, roasted spices, and bold flavours that elevate the entire dish.

Simmered in rich coconut milk and loaded with vibrant vegetables like broccoli, baby corn, zucchini, carrots, and peppers, this curry is as nourishing as it is indulgent.

Traditionally paired with jasmine rice, but at home, we absolutely love it with steaming hot basmati rice… and honestly, it’s pure comfort in a bowl! 🍚✨.

Every bite is creamy, fragrant, slightly spicy, and deeply satisfying — proof that wholesome food can also feel indulgent. 🌱💚

Heat 200 ml coconut milk in a pan and boil for 2–3 minutes until slightly thickened.

Add baby corn and cook for 2–3 minutes.

Add remaining vegetables, brown sugar, and salt. Cook for a few minutes, adjusting consistency with veg stock if needed.
