2 onions
garlic (I used 2 cloves)
1 tbs thai green curry paste
lemongrass (1-2 stalks)
1 thumb sized knob of galangal (or ginger)
3-6 oyster mushrooms – or any other kind of mushroom, dried ones work as well (you need to soak them in hot water before use)
shrimp or chicken breast or fish
1 carrot
1/2 red bell pepper (or more if you like)
1/2 zucchini
pak choi or some other kind of chinese cabbage
1-2 tomatoes, or a handful of cherry tomatoes
4 fresh kaffir lime leaves
1 cup of coconut milk
1 teaspoon salt
1 bunch of fresh thai basil (leaves only)
1/2 lime, juiced

wash & cut the vegetables, lemongrass & mushrooms
heat some oil in a big pot (a wok would probably be good, but I don´t have one) over medium-high heat, add the onions and garlic cloves
add curry paste
… lemongrass, galangal, carrot & bell pepper
… oyster mushroom
… shrimp
… zucchini, cabbage, tomatoes, lime leaves, coconut milk and salt – at this point I put on a lid and let the whole thing simmer for a couple of minutes
right before serving, stir in the thai basil and add some lime juice
