We present you the Vegetarian Thai Green Curry which is traditionally a non veg Thai curry. All ingredients for this Veg Thai Curry are easily available in India.

The Thai Green Curry features chunky veggies in a lip-smacking green curry, constituted of aromatic herbs and spice powders, tangy lemon juice and rinds, and of course, onion, ginger, garlic and the usual repertoire of flavour enhancers. Like in most Thai preparations, coconut milk does the balancing act making the curry perky yet pleasant to the taste buds.

The veggies in this preparation have been chosen to balance colour, flavour and texture. However, you can comfortably use other vegetables of your choice. We have used paneer in the Vegetarian Thai Green Curry as that is easily available all over India. You may replace with tofu if that is available.

Serve this Vegetarian Thai Green Curry with steamed rice to make a perfect one dish meal. We also suggest you try our amazing Vegetarian Thai Red Curry recipe.

Recipe notes for Thai green curry
    Recipe notes for Thai green curry
  1. Lemon grass is the important ingredient in the making of the Thai green paste. It has a fragrant lemony smell that is most potent in it's roots. In Thai cooking, usually only 10 cm closest to the roots are used, as the top can be slightly chewy if used in curry pastes.
  2. The top greens can however be used to flavour stocks and soups where the lemon grass can be removed before serving. Also, in case you have to use the top leaf make sure to chop and boil it for some time so that it becomes soft or else it will be chewy and will not grind well in the paste.
  3. Thai green curry is a spicy curry, but you can adjust the amount of green chilies as per your taste.
  4. We have used paneer, capsicum, babycorn, green peas, cauliflower and mushrooms in the Thai green curry, but you can use vegetables of your choice.
  5. In case you don’t have ready-made coconut milk you can make it at home.  Click here for the homemade coconut milk recipe.
  6. For the Veg Thai Green Curry we will first make the green curry paste. It is this paste that gives the taste and flavour to the curry. We have substituted many ingredients that are not easily available. Like instead of galangal we have used ginger, kaffir lime leaves we have substituted with lemon rind.
