A few Kaffir Lime Leaves, roughly torn

A few Basil Leaves, roughly torn

1 Tbsp. Light Soy

1 Tbsp. Lemon Juice

1. Heat oil in a pot and add Pepperwicks Yellow Thai Curry Paste. Cook over a high heat, stirring continuously till the paste starts leaving the sides of the pan and the paste cooks off.
2. Add half the amount of coconut milk and water and bring to a boil, stirring constantly to avoid the coconut milk from splitting.
3. Add in the remaining coconut milk and stock and stir. Cook on a medium flame till the liquid reduces to a thicker consistency.
4. At this stage, add in the basil leaves, kaffir lime leaves, jaggery, soy sauce, lime juice, and red chillies. Cook till the curry reduces to 60% of original volume (10 minutes approx.).
5. Add in your vegetables and adjust seasoning with salt, to taste.
