Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 can (13.5 oz) full-fat coconut milk
  • 3 tbsp red curry paste
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger
  • 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 1 tbsp neutral oil
  • Salt, to taste

Method
 

  1. Heat the oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook the garlic and ginger for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  2. Stir in the curry paste and cook for 1 minute, pressing it into the pan.
  3. Add the coconut milk and a pinch of salt. Simmer on low for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in the lime juice. Taste and adjust salt, then spoon over rice, vegetables, or protein.

Notes

The sauce thickens as it cools, especially in the fridge. If you’re reheating, thin it with a splash of water or broth.
