- Add the zucchini, mushrooms, and bell pepper to the pan, cooking until they are half-tender.
- Add coconut milk, curry paste, lime leaves, Splenda and fish sauce, stirring mixture until curry paste mingles with the coconut milk.
- Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until vegetables are mostly cooked through.

THAI VEGETABLE CURRY
Green curry paste can be pretty fiery. If that's appealing to you, lay it on! If not, use just a little, or try red or yellow curry paste instead. These are somewhat milder--though in no way bland--and they're becoming more and more available in the Asian section of supermarkets. Serve the curry with steamed jasmine or regular white rice. Also great with added chicken or shrimp. Food & Wine Magazine. Wine: An off-dry gewürztraminer from the Pacific Northwest is a good choice to both accentuate the curry spice flavors and tame their heat.

THAI VEGETABLE CURRY
This is an easy beginner's curry. It is a very flexible recipe- you can use whatever vegetables you prefer or have to hand.The flavours are not spicy but more fresh and slightly fruity (from the mango chutney). You could of course add more spice to tailor it to your preferences. I have organised this recipe to be quick, but you do have two pans on the go at once- the vegetables in the saucepan and the skillet. If you prefer an easier pace, boil the potatoes, add the broccoli and cauliflower then drain and set aside when cooked. Then when you are ready, prepare the spice paste and cook the red bell pepper in the skillet.

- In a skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of oil over a medium heat and add the red bell pepper. Cook for 3 minutes, until slightly softened.
