Talk about a healthy, vegan and veggie filled bowl that comes together in under 30 minutes!Green curry is considered the most popular curry. Because the green curry paste is made with green chilis, it is far hotter than other curries. However the coconut milk will tone down the spiciness quite a bit.
One of the best things to serve with Thai green curry is some nice fragrant fluffy coconut rice or plain jasmine rice. This is a very customizable dish that you can easily add other proteins or vegetables according to your liking. Try broccoli florets, green or red bell peppers, snap peas, mushrooms, sweet potato chunks, or even eggplant.
