Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbsp ginger, minced
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 carrot, julienned
- 3 tbsp Thai red curry paste
- 1 can (13.5 oz) unsweetened coconut milk
- 2 cups chicken or vegetable broth
- 1 tbsp fish sauce
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 8 oz rice noodles
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 1 lime, juiced
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 2 green onions, sliced
- 0.5 tsp optional crushed red pepper flakes
Instructions
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and ginger to the pot and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the sliced red bell pepper and julienned carrot to the pot. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Stir in the Thai red curry paste and mix well, allowing it to coat the vegetables for about 1 minute.
Pour in the coconut milk and chicken or vegetable broth, stirring to combine.
Add the fish sauce and brown sugar to the pot, and mix until dissolved.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and then add the rice noodles. Cook according to package instructions, usually 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure the noodles don’t stick to the pot.
Once the noodles are tender, add the fresh spinach and stir until wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
Remove the pot from heat and stir in the lime juice.
Garnish with fresh cilantro, sliced green onions, and (optional) crushed red pepper flakes for added spice.
Serve hot and enjoy your Spicy Thai One Pot dish!
