Ingredients

  • 1 cup jasmine or basmati rice
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup carrots, sliced
  • 1 can (14 oz) coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons red curry paste
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Cook the Rice: Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a pot, combine the rice with 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the rice is tender and water is absorbed.
  2. Sauté Aromatics: In a large skillet, heat coconut oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion, garlic, and ginger, and sauté until fragrant and the onion is translucent (about 3-4 minutes).
  3. Add Vegetables: Stir in the sliced bell pepper, broccoli, and carrots. Cook for another 5-7 minutes, until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
  4. Make the Curry Sauce: Pour in the coconut milk and add the red curry paste, soy sauce, and lime juice. Stir well to combine and let it simmer for about 5 minutes to thicken slightly.
  5. Serve: Fluff the cooked rice with a fork and divide it among serving bowls. Top with the red curry vegetable mixture, garnish with fresh cilantro, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
