Notes
Not all curry pastes are vegan as some contain shrimp paste. Fortunately, there are many vegan brands out there. So just check the labels.
If you want to make the curry spicier, add some more curry paste and red pepper flakes.
Serve it over cooked basmati rice or brown rice for a healthier version.
Stored in the fridge in an airtight container, this curry will last 4-5 days.
