Ingredients

Directions

  1. Clean and pick green bean tips.
  2. In a dutch oven (or equivalent size vessel), heat oil.
  3. Add curry paste and "fry" until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  4. Add broth, green beans, bamboo shoots (or other vegetable).
  5. Bring to a rapid
  6. boil and
  7. cook like that for about 15-20 minutes (watching that liquid doesn't
  8. reduce too much;
  9. add water as necessary).
  10. heat to a hard
  11. simmer and continue cooking until green beans are VERY done and have absorbed the flavor of the curry broth.
  12. Serve in bowls over rice.
  13. NOTES: If necessary, you may substitute whole frozen green beans for fresh.
  14. Thai Curry Paste: "Country Curry" or "Red Curry"; but they are all flavorful.
  15. Mae Ploy and Tommy Tang are other good brands.
  16. Bamboo shoots: I like to use a large can of bamboo tips because they are tender and I can
  17. cut them into 1/4 inch thick round slices.
  18. You can also use a couple of the small cans of sliced bamboo shoots, but they will not absorb the flavor as well.
  19. I think carrots cut into coins would also be good, if you like those.
  20. I tried potatoes once, but they just disintegrated.)
