Vegan Thai Stir-fry
This is a simple green curry coconut milk stir fry served on a bed of rice with cashews sprinkled on top. You could serve this to hard core vegans as there are no animal parts involved here. I love anything with cashews, and the green curry paste can be adjusted as you make it. You can use less green curry paste for wimps or more for the brave. The spice heat in this recipe should be somewhere on the Goldilocks scale between "this one is too hot" and "this one is too cold". How spicy something is, is always a very subjective thing.
A note about rice: red Thai rice is awesome. I generally use it for this recipe. Most Asian grocery stores carry it. Brown jasmine rice is another great choice. Try to avoid white rice; it's a simple carbohydrate that will shoot your blood sugar levels through the roof. People with diebetes or on weight watchers will be able to enjoy the non-white rice.
