- Add the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, broccoli, zucchini and kaffir lime leaves. Bring to a complete boil and cook for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender.

Notes
- Store: You can store this curry in the refrigerator for up to 3 days in an airtight container. The curry thickens as it cools. Add a little water, and reheat in the microwave.
- Spicy? Start with lesser panang curry paste, 2-3 tablespoons and add more based on your spice preference.
- Consistency: This curry gets thicker as it cools. Add 1/2 to 1 cup water or broth to get a thinner consistency.
