How to make green thai curry with greens
1. Make the paste. Dry-fry the spices, then grind in a mortar and pestle. Put in a blender, add the remaining paste ingredients and black pepper. Blitz for 5 minutes, until smooth. Set aside.
Tip: Chill leftover paste for up to 3 months.
2. Warm some oil in a large pan over a low heat. Add 40g curry paste and cook for 2 minutes, stirring. Add the coconut milk, boil, then simmer for 5 minutes.
3. Toss the courgettes in oil, season, and fry on a hot griddle for 2 minutes each side. Add to the curry and cook for 6 minutes. Add the asparagus and broad beans and cook for 3-4 minutes, then stir in the basil. Serve with jasmine rice and lime wedges to squeeze over.
