Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Spaghetti

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing until fragrant, about 1 minute.

  3. 3

    Add the Curry Paste

    Stir in the Panang curry paste and cook for another minute, allowing the flavors to meld.

  4. 4

    Combine with Coconut Milk

    Pour in the coconut milk and stir well to combine. Add the sugar and lime juice. Simmer for 5-7 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.

  5. 5

    Mix in the Spaghetti

    Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet, tossing to coat the noodles evenly with the sauce. Season with salt to taste.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from heat and serve immediately, garnished with fresh Thai basil leaves.
