Ingredients

  • 1 cup Lite coconut milk
  • 0.5 cup Vegetable broth
  • 2 tablespoons Red curry paste
  • 1 teaspoon (grated) Fresh ginger
  • 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
  • 1 tablespoon Lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon Low sodium soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons Water
  • 2 tablespoons (optional, for garnish) Chopped fresh cilantro

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water until fully dissolved to create a slurry. Set aside.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, heat a splash of vegetable broth (about 2 tablespoons) over medium heat. Add the garlic and ginger, sautéing until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Step 3

Stir in the red curry paste and cook for another 1-2 minutes to release its flavors.

Step 4

Pour in the lite coconut milk and the remaining vegetable broth, stirring to combine. Bring to a gentle simmer.

Step 5

Add the lime juice, soy sauce, and brown sugar, stirring until the sugar dissolves.

Step 6

Whisk in the cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce reaches your desired consistency.

Step 7

Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning, adding more lime juice or soy sauce if needed.

Step 8

Remove from heat and garnish with chopped fresh cilantro if desired. Serve immediately with your favorite vegetables, tofu, shrimp, or chicken.
