Ingredients
- 1 can organic coconut milk
- 1/4 cup beef broth or chicken broth, optional
- 1-3 TBSPs Massaman curry paste
- 1-2 teaspoons organic coconut sugar
- pinch sea salt
- 1/2 medium onion, chopped
- 2-3 small pre-cooked potatoes, chopped into bite sized pieces
- 10-12 green beans, trimmed and sliced in half
- beef - any cut you want - strip steak, tenderloin, etc., cut into thin strips
Accompaniments
- 1/4 cup roasted peanuts, whole or pieces

- fish sauce
Instructions
-
Bring coconut milk and broth to a gentle simmer and add 1 TBSP of the Massaman curry paste and pinch salt and mix well for a few minutes. Taste and add additional Massaman curry and coconut sugar to your personal liking.
Note: In my experience in Thailand, broth was not always used in coconut curries. If you want a more soup-like consistency, use broth. If you want a creamier texture, it's OK to skip the broth.
