Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash and slice the bamboo shoots into thin strips. Trim the ends of the string beans and cut them into 2-inch pieces. Remove the seeds from the bell peppers and slice them into thin strips.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a bowl, combine the coconut milk, red curry paste, soy sauce, sugar, and lime juice. Mix well until the curry paste is fully dissolved.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large pan or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the bamboo shoots and cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly tender. Then add the string beans and bell peppers, stirring frequently for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

  2. 4

    Add the Sauce

    Pour the prepared curry sauce over the sautéed vegetables. Stir well to coat all the vegetables evenly. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

  3. 5

    Finish with Basil

    Once the sauce has thickened slightly, add the basil leaves and stir for an additional minute until they are wilted and fragrant.
