A delicious Vegan Red Curry
Here is a lovely recipe for a simple but flavour-packed Vegan Red Curry.
I cooked this delicious Vegan Red Curry for us to enjoy at home last Saturday night.
My lovely Sister and Brother-in-law were coming for dinner. We are both at this weird stage in our lives where one Saturday night we might have a full house plus extras and the next, we find ourselves inside a very quiet home and without any kids (I shouldn’t really call them kids but it is a hard habit to break). So earlier that day, I didn’t know if we were to enjoy dinner with 4 or instead, dinner with 10 or so. With two of our own daughters being vegetarian and one niece being Vegan, this Vegan red curry is what I decided to cook for us all. And wouldn’t you know it, it did end up being dinner for 4! ha! Although the rest of the gang was certainly missed, it was precious to spend some slower time just the 4 of us and to truly catch up with one another. And the other bonus, there was no cooking Sunday night as there was loads of left overs given I had cooked for a cast of thousands (also a hard habit to break).
This Vegan Red Curry recipe is flavour packed and simple. It is quick and easy enough to enjoy mid-week too. You can also easily substitute (or leave out) ingredients.
No cauliflower? Use Broccoli instead. You can also add beans, peas, and snowpeas…there are many variations and options for you to play with and enjoy.
And, if you desire and need extra protein and still keep this curry vegetarian and vegan friendly, feel free to add in a tin of rinsed and drained chickpeas or lentils…..just delicious.
