Thai Mixed Vegetables — fragrant and bright, this mixed vegetable has notes of kaffir lime, ginger, and garlic in a velvety coconut gravy. With crisp veggies and paneer, this is an effortless way to elevate your usual weeknight rotation!

I just love Thai flavors and the way they pair with Indian ones. The softer, brighter notes of coconut, ginger, and kaffir lime work so well with the warm Indian spices. The result is a comforting, rich combination that will make you a fan in no time.

WATCH HOW TO MAKE THAI MIXED VEGETABLES:

Start by sauteing veggies and setting them aside. Then, I made a simple makhani gravy base with tomatoes, onion, cashews, ginger, and chili and blended it till smooth.

Then, sauté your Thai red curry paste and add in the gravy. Let simmer and add in these beautiful kaffir lime and basil leaves, coconut crème, spices, and soy sauce for some depth. Fold in your paneer and mixed veggies and this is just irresistible!

Rich with a touch of brightness from the kaffir lime and basil, this Thai Mixed Vegetable is one of my favorites! Serve with lachha paratha or rice and enjoy!
