For the curry paste:
 1518 Thai chills
 2 sticks Lemongrass
 Kaffir lime leaves
 10 Peppercorns
 5 Garlic
 4 Shallots
 ¼ cup Cliantro stems (chopped)
 Salt to taste
For the Thai curry
 1 Zucchinis
 1 Onion (chopped)
 14 oz Coconut milk (1 can)
 Basil (to garnish)

1

Heat oil in a pan and saute the chopped onions till they sweat and become translucent.

2

Add the veggies, and if you are using any protein like chicken or tofu, now is the time to add it.

3

Allow the veggies to get a bit of brown on the edges before adding the coconut milk.

4

Let this simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring every once in awhile. The curry will thicken in this time and will cook the proteins and veggies along with it.

5

Check for spice and salt. Once the curry is thick enough to coat the veggies or protein, take it off heat. Garnish with fresh basil leaves and serve with steaming rice.
