Homemade Vegan Thai Curry

I like to make this homemade vegan Thai Curry whenever I want a warm, comforting food that is perfect for cosy, cold nights at home. When the creamy coconut milk is mixed with a hint of sweet, floral and citrus aroma from the kaffir leaves, the richness of flavours is absolutely to die for!
I will also share with you some of the secrets to making the perfect Thai curry.
Firstly, you have to use a good amount of aromatics. In my case, I used kaffir leaves because of their citrus flavour that I absolutely love.
Secondly, use creamy coconut milk for its richness.
Thirdly, do not hesitate to change up the vegetables. You could put any vegetable of your choice, and I assure you, the flavours will still be indulgent and full!

    Curry is such a fun comfort food for me! Especially in the winter, a bowl of hot and spicy curry with rice is just what you need on a cold day! My favorite is yellow curry, but this looks fabulous as an alternative. Thanks for sharing!

    This recipe looks amazing. I love curry. I would probably though use oat milk instead of coconut milk.
