Green Curry Sauce
Green Curry Sauce! A 15-minute spicy, delicious sauce thats perfect over vegetables, noodles, rice, tofu, and more!
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 can light coconut milk
- 3 tablespoons green curry paste*
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- Rice, for serving
- Steamed Vegetables, for serving
Instructions
- Place the can of coconut milk in a medium saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer over medium-high heat. Stir occasionally to prevent scalding.
- Once the milk is hot, whisk in the curry paste, soy sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, and minced garlic clove. Keep whisking over medium-high heat for 15-20 minutes until the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon and reduced by almost 1/2. The longer you cook it, the thicker it will be! You can also thin out the sauce with a little water/vegetable broth if you want it thinner in consistency.
- While this sauce is delicious over just about anything, I love it with steamed vegetables, rice, and pan-fried tofu.
Notes
*Depending on the curry paste that you use, you may need to add a minced Thai pepper for more heat. I used a vegan brand that I got at my local Asian market which had a lot of heat! However, I made the dish again using the Thai Kitchen brand and it needed more heat. I added a finely minced Thai pepper to add heat and it was great! So, adjust as needed.
