also delicious with tofu!

Clean fresh shrimp, thaw frozen shrimp, or dice the tofu. Cut the vegetables into bite-sized pieces. Roughly chop the herbs and nuts. Heat the oil in a wok and stir-fry the curry paste until the flavors develop. Deglaze with the coconut milk. Add the vegetables to the sauce and cook for 10-15 minutes until al dente. Then add the shrimp or tofu and cook. Finally, add the chopped herbs and nuts, season with soy sauce, salt, pepper, and a little chili if desired, and bring back to a boil briefly. Serve with rice. Tip: The vegetables can, of course, be varied according to taste; bell peppers, bamboo shoots, and Chinese cabbage are also good.
