How to make Sweet Spicy & Tangy Vegetarian Thai Green Curry Recipe With Tamarind

Method for Thai Green Curry Paste
  1. To prepare the lemongrass, we will first have to trim away and discard any root section below the bulb base. We will also now remove the dried part of the root until we reach a stage we know that the root cuts easily and is tender. 

  2. We don't use the leaf part of the lemon grass for the curry paste, you can use it for flavoring a tea or a soup.

  3. Continue the same procedure for the remaining lemon grass stalks.

  4. Add all the ingredients for the paste into a blender and a little bit of water. Cover the blender and grind the mixture. 

  5. After a few seconds of grinding, open the blender and stir to combine the ingredients and if required add a little more water to grind into a smooth paste.

Method to make the Thai Green Curry
  1. Next we will proceed to make the Thai Curry with this paste. Heat a teaspoon of oil in a heavy wok. Add in the vegetables.  sprinkle in some salt and stir fry the vegetables on high heat until slightly tender. Once tender turn off the heat and keep aside.

  2. Add a teaspoon of oil into the hot wok, next add in 2 to 3 tablespoons of the thai curry paste and saute for a few seconds in the oil. Next add in a cup of water, the tamarind water and stir to combine into the curry.

  3. Next we will add in a tablespoon of brown sugar and finally 200 ml of the Dabur coconut milk.

  4. Stir to combine all the ingredients. Once combined, add in the salt, stir and allow the mixture to come to a thicken a little and come to a boil

  5. Once the mixture comes to a boil, add in the torn basil leaves and the stir fried vegetables. Stir the mixture, give it a light boil and the thai curry is ready to be served.
