I have a perfect healthy and delicious Thai recipe for you: the Thai Mango Curry recipe. It is ready in less than 25 minutes and 100% vegan. You will be impressed by the blending of tastes in this meal: sweet from the mangoes, spicy from the jalapenos and herbal from the mix of flavor of the green curry paste.
For a milder version, use less jalapeno.
This recipe uses soy protein from dry soy chunks. You can find it in supermarkets and gave to cook it separately before. But you can use any vegan protein food to add nutritional fullness to the recipe: chickpeas, tofu, jackfruit.
What is green curry paste?
Green curry paste is a common ingredient in Thai Cuisine. It is made of shallots, garlic, lemongrass, green chili, galangal root, turmeric, cilantro and cumin seeds, kaffir lime leaves, salt and pepper.
You can buy the paste from Asian stores, it is so much easier especially when you can’t find every ingredient. But check for the vegan version, as the originally recipe contains shrimp paste.
