Recipe Notes:
- To make this dish gluten-free, I recommend using brown rice spaghetti instead of regular spaghetti. I absolutely love them and we use them all the time. I think you can barely notice a difference!
- To make this sauce extra creamy, I used full fat coconut milk. However, if you want to reduce the calories a bit, you could also use light coconut milk. Just keep in mind that the sauce won’t be as creamy. But it will still be amazing!
- The red Thai curry paste I used for this recipe wasn’t overly spicy, but most brands are different when it comes to spiciness. So I recommend checking your curry paste first and then adjust the amount of curry paste you’re using for this recipe.
