Instructions

  1. Heat the oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until the garlic is golden.
  2. Then add in your red curry paste, miso, soy sauce, and mushroom powder and mix well. The mix of miso soy sauce and powdered mushroom act as a substitute for fish sauce.
  3. Cook for a minute then add in your coconut milk. Mix the red curry paste in the coconut milk so that there are no lumps remaining.
  4. Then add in the salt, pepper, pumpkin, lime juice, and mix well.
  5. Cover and cook until the pumpkin is al dente. It will take 8-10 minutes depending on the squash used and your stove, etc.
  6. Open the lid and then add in your peppers, Thai basil, sugar, tofu, and mix in. Bring to a good boil.
  7. Taste and adjust salt and flavor. Add more salt if needed. Some lime juice if needed. Then take off heat and serve with some Thai basil on top and more lime juice if needed. Serve with rice or noodles.

Notes

  • Feel free to add any other veggies such as zucchini, peas, baby corn, sweet potato, green beans, etc.
  • Instead of pumpkin, you can also use kabocha squash, acorn, or butternut squash
  • This dish can be made ahead of time and is freezer-friendly.
  • Not a fan of tofu? Add some canned, drained chickpeas instead.  White beans or lentils are another great addition to get that plant-based protein.
