Thai green curry is our family favourite. I make it every now and then, when I want some spicy, yet comforting food. I never make the same recipe every time as I like to try different veggie combinations. Have a look of an old recipe here .
This recipe is vegan, but it won`t disappoint the carnivores out here. As you don`t use meat this is super fast to cook if you have some preparation done beforehand.

- 1/2 green zucchini, cut in cubes
- 1/2 yellow zucchini, cut in cubes

- thumb size fresh ginger, peeled and sliced into thin strips
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 cups, cooked rice to serve
