Whip up this eye-catching curry when you’re craving a meal with bold flavors that doesn’t require a ton of work. Our homemade Thai Red Curry Sauce is packed full of fragrant spices such as lemongrass, coriander, ginger, galangal, and chiles de árbol so each bite is bursting with complexity. Adding a can of coconut milk to the sauce makes it even more drool-worthy. Once the base is ready, simply slice a few heads of bok choy in half, add a bag of frozen veggies, and serve over rice to create this tantalizing dish in a matter of minutes. We recommend making the curry sauce ahead of time so you have it on hand for an even quicker cook time!

How many servings is 6 cups?

Lisa, Forks Over Knives Support

Hi Niels, Six cups served over brown rice would break down into about 3 to 4 servings, depending on hunger levels. This recipe would keep well in the fridge for a few days or frozen for up to four weeks. So if you end up with too much on your hands, you can put some away for another day!

Rainer

Live curry but can't have coconut milk. High in fat.

Mawi

Use almond milk and a bit of coconut flour.

Sunny

Also can use regular plant milk while adding a few drops of coconut extract (usually used for baking) for a bit of coconutty flavor.
