This veggie Thai green curry recipe features zucchini and carrots in a delicious green coconut sauce. You can of course make your curry paste totally from scratch but we used a store-bought curry paste instead – simply because some ingredients are difficult to find and time-consuming to prepare. So while this recipe is not perfectly authentic, it’s a lot easier to make!
