Thai curry snow pea stir-fry

This completely effortless dish is redolent of my mother’s almighty vegetable stir-fries – her sweet, crisp greens, glazed in a rich sauce or seasonings, are always a confident accompaniment to white rice (or noodles).

Ingredients

    SERVES 4

    Method

    1. Heat a large frying pan over medium–high heat and add a drizzle of oil. Add the snow peas and garlic and stir-fry for 1 minute until the snow peas are bright green. Add the curry paste and coconut cream, then season with sea salt and stir-fry for another 1–2 minutes, until the snow peas are crisp-tender and still vibrantly green.
    2. Remove from the heat and transfer the snow peas to a serving plate. Drizzle with a little more coconut cream and scatter with the herbs and peanuts. Serve with lime wedges and eat on its own as a side dish, or with rice or noodles as a complete meal.
