I made curry for dinner last night and it was awesome. It started in my garden and ended on the table and was super easy to make.
Heat one can of coconut milk and some curry paste (I used two tbsp of green curry paste and a little less than one tbsp of hot red curry paste - just to heat it up a bit - this part is really to taste) on the stove for about five minutes. Add chopped carrots and potatoes and cook for about ten minutes. Add shelled peas and chopped beans and cook another ten minutes or so (until the beans and potatoes are cooked but not so they are getting soggy). Turn off the heat and stir in some fresh, chopped tomatoes. Spoon over rice and eat.
The only vegg in this that wasn't from our garden was the potatoes but they'd been in the cupboard for a while and needed to be used up and I love potatoes in curry. Using veggies we've grown ourselves makes everything taste so good. The tomatoes were incredible - warm but not really cooked - they were little bursts of sweetness. The leftovers were even better as lunch today.
p.s. These beans are awesome. They're called "Purple Queen". They start out dark purple and turn green as you cook them. I've been waiting all summer to see it.
