Ingredients

Steps

  1. Fry the curry paste in the oil 1 minute, then add 100 ml coconut milk and cook until it darkens.

  2. Add the rest of the coconut milk, the pepper, and the beans and simmer 5 minutes.

  3. Add the shrimp and cook 3 minutes until opaque.

  4. Season with fish sauce, sugar, and lime and finish with basil.

Frying the paste first is the difference between fragrant and raw-tasting.

Swaps

  • Tofu and soy sauce make it vegetarian.
Food safety Cook shrimp until opaque, 63°C / 145°F.
