Vegan Thai Green Curry with Eggplant and Potatoes

Eggplants and potatoes are typical ingredients in Indian curries, but Indian spices are just too much for me during hot summer days. But I still wanted to make something nice and spicy with it, so Thai green curry was a solution.

My vegan Thai green curry is quite unconventional, but it tastes bomb, trust me. Especially if you serve it with baked or seared tofu on a side. Plus, it is almost effortless. All you have to do is to chop everything and throw into the pan.

Heat coconut oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add garlic, curry paste, cumin and stir until fragrant. Then add eggplant and potatoes and sauté for few minutes.

Now pour coconut milk and vegetable stock, add Kaffir lime leaves and bring to a boil. Lower the heat, cover and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes or until vegetables are fork tender.

In the end of cooking season with salt, sugar and lime juice, Taste for seasoning and adjust if needed.

Switch off the heat and serve over rice or grains of your choice. Garnish with fresh cilantro.
