Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 yellow onion, chopped
- 1 inch ginger, minced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 4 tbsp red curry paste
- 2 400 ml / 14 oz cans coconut milk
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 1/2 tbsp vegan fish sauce or regular
- juice of half a lime
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp ground turmeric
- 2 400 ml / 14 oz cans butter beans (lima beans)
- 1 red pepper, sliced thin
- Cilantro for garnish
- naan bread for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375F.
- To a frying pan / oven safe dish (like a braiser) add oil over medium heat. Add onion, ginger and garlic saute 5-6 mins until softened.
- Stir in curry paste, cook for 2 minutes until fragrant.
- Add in coconut milk, water, fish sauce, lime juice, brown sugar and turmeric powder. Stir to combine well and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Once simmering, remove from the heat and transfer sauce to a casserole dish. Stir in red pepper and butter beans. Transfer to the oven and bake for 25-35 minutes for flavours to meld - the curry will be simmering when done.(If using a braiser, simply remove from the heat, stir in the red pepper and butter beans and transfer to the oven).
- Remove from the oven and taste and adjust seasonings. Add more brown sugar for sweetness, curry paste for more heat or curry flavour, lime for tanginess.
- Serve over rice or another favourite grain. Or, our favourite way with a side of warmed naan bread. Garnish with cilantro and enjoy.
Notes
- If you'd like to serve with another protein, try chicken, salmon or another favourite fish.
- Don't like red pepper? Bake the beans as-is, not adding the red pepper, then add in 1 cup of peas towards the end of the cooking time. Another delicious substitute would be 1 cups chopped cauliflower which you could add in to cook with the beans.
