Turmeric in combination with red chillies help make Thai Yellow different from the other colours of spice pastes in Thai cuisine, resulting in a milder flavour. Here, our Yellow Thai Style Veggie Curry focuses on the veg.

Instructions

Cook the Rice
1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Meanwhile, pour the water for the rice (see pantry for amount) into a medium saucepan with a tight-fitting lid.

Stir in the rice and ¼ tsp salt and bring to the boil. Once boiling, turn the heat down to medium and cover with the lid.

Leave to cook for 10 mins, then remove the pan from the heat (still covered) and leave to the side for another 10 mins or until ready to serve (the rice will continue to cook in its own steam).

Roast the Sweet Potato
2

Meanwhile, chop the sweet potatoes into 2cm chunks (no need to peel).

Put the sweet potato chunks onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, sprinkle over the Thai style spice mix and season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 25-35 mins. Turn halfway through.

Prep Time
3

While the sweet potato roasts, halve the green pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 2cm chunks. 

Trim the pak choi, then thinly slice lengthways.

Zest and cut the lime into wedges (see ingredients for amount).

Build the Flavour
4

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large saucepan on medium-high heat. Once hot,
stir-fry the pepper chunks until beginning to soften and colour, 4-5 mins. 

Stir in the yellow Thai style paste to coat and cook for 1 min more. Add the pak choi and coconut milk, stir to combine.

Curry On
5

Bring the curry to the boil, then simmer the curry until the veg is tender, 4-5 mins. 

Stir the roasted sweet potato through the curry, then remove from the heat and stir in the soy sauce. Squeeze in some lime juice from a lime wedge

Taste and add more salt, pepper and lime juice if needed. Add a splash of water if you feel it needs it.

Finish and Serve
6

Fluff up the rice with a fork and stir through the lime zest.

Share the zesty rice between your bowls and top with the Thai style veggie curry

Serve any remaining lime wedges alongside for squeezing over.

Enjoy!
