Prep Time: 20 minutes

Cook Time: 30 minutes

Total Time: 50 minutes

Ingredients:

PASTE:
3 shallots OR 1 small cooking onion, diced
1 stalk lemongrass (see instructions below) OR 2 Tbsp. ready-bought lemongrass (available frozen at most Asian stores)
1-3 red chillies (depending on desired spiciness) or 1-3 teaspoons Thai red chilli sauce
3 cloves garlic
1 thumb-size piece galangal, peeled and sliced (may be substituted with ginger)
? tsp. white pepper (may be substituted with black pepper)
2 Tbsp. chilli powder
1 Tbsp. coriander seeds, ground with pestle & mortar (or a coffee-grinder)
3 Tbsp. regular (light) soy sauce or tamari
1 kaffir lime leaf
? tsp. dark soy sauce
1 tsp. brown sugar
1/2 tsp. dried turmeric (or 1 thumb-sized piece of fresh turmeric, sliced)
OTHER:
10-15 cherry tomatoes, or 3-4 regular tomatoes, sliced
3-4 kaffir lime leaves
1 small Japanese eggplant, sliced into bite-size pieces (do not peel, as there are vitamins in the skin)
1 sweet red pepper, or 1 red bell pepper, chopped into bite-size pieces
1 yellow bell pepper, chopped
optional: 1 small sweet potato (or yam), peeled and cut into cubes
? cup fresh Thai holy basil leaves OR sweet basil
1 package wheat gluten “chicken” or “beef”, OR 1 package firm tofu cut into bite-size cubes
1 to 2 cans coconut milk (depending on how mild you like your curry, or how much sauce you prefer)
Preparation:

For complete instructions on how to buy and cook with lemongrass, see: All About Lemongrass: Your Guide to Buying, Preparing, and Cooking with Lemongrass.
To make the paste, place all paste ingredients in a food processor.
Add ? can of the coconut milk and process into a paste.
Place paste, wheat gluten or tofu, remaining 1/2 can coconut milk, and limes leaves in a casserole dish.
Stir well until paste is thoroughly mixed with the other ingredients.
Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes. Then remove from oven and add vegetables. Stir well. (Note: if you prefer more sauce, or if you find the curry tastes too spicy, add 1/2 can more coconut milk.)
After another 10 minutes, remove from oven. Check to make sure vegetables are cooked to your liking.
Do a taste test for salt and spice. If not salty enough, add up to 2 Tbsp. more soy sauce (or season with sea salt). If not spicy enough, add another red chilli, sliced finely, OR 1-2 tsp. Thai chilli sauce. If too salty, add up to 2 Tbsp. lime juice. If too spicy, add a little more coconut milk (yogurt will work too if you are non-vegan) and stir well.
Sprinkle with fresh basil leaves (these can be roughly chopped if too large), and serve with plenty of Thai fragrant rice (white or brown) for a nutritionally complete and satisfying meal.
