There are a few Asian condiments that I love having in my pantry. Red curry paste and roasted red chili paste from Thai Kitchen are two of my favorites. The reason that I was able to make recipes like Spicy Seafood Combo and Rainbow Chicken Salad super quick and tasty is because of Thai Kitchen’s excellent gluten-free products.

In today’s recipe, these curry vegetables are cooked mainly in the red curry paste. With some additional cumin, turmeric, a splash of white wine and some coconut milk to enhance the flavor, this recipe turned out great.

I used coconut oil for this recipe. Since coconut oil’s smoke point is fairly low. I kept the heat at medium pretty much the entire time. If you use a cooking oil with a high smoke point, you can cook these curry vegetables in less time by turning up the heat. However, coconut oil works better in this recipe because the flavor incorporates so well with curry and coconut oil, so a little bit more cooking time is well worth it, in my opinion.
 
Give this vegetable dish a try and experience super common vegetables like cauliflower, sweet potato, onion, and carrot surprisingly knocking your socks off.
