How to Make Country Style Curry With Ground Beef And Green Beans

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat.
  2. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  3. Add 2 tablespoons of Thai green curry paste and cook, mashing and stirring constantly, for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and softened.
  4. Crumble 1 pound of ground beef into the skillet and add 1 cup of sliced mushrooms.
  5. Cook, breaking up the beef and stirring frequently, until the meat and mushrooms are browned and well coated with the curry paste (about 5-7 minutes).
  6. Add 1 cup of chicken broth, 1 cup of trimmed green beans, 1 cup of diced zucchini, 5-7 kaffir lime leaves (roughly chopped), 1 tablespoon of fish sauce, 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Bring to a gentle boil.
  7. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 3-5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp and the beef is cooked through.
  8. Stir in 1/2 cup of fresh basil leaves and remove from heat. Serve hot with steamed rice.
