Creating Vegan Thai Red Curry can be simple if you follow these clear steps:

1. Heat the Oil: In a large pot, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent.
2. Add Aromatics: Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger. Cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
3. Incorporate Curry Paste: Add the red curry paste to the pot and stir well, cooking for another minute to release its flavors.
4. Pour in Coconut Milk and Broth: Slowly add the coconut milk and vegetable broth, stirring to combine.
5. Add Vegetables: Bring the mixture to a simmer, then add the bell peppers, zucchini, carrots, broccoli, and snap peas. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the veggies are tender but still crisp.
6. Season the Curry: Stir in the soy sauce (or tamari) and maple syrup if using. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
7. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat and garnish with fresh basil leaves. Serve hot over cooked rice or quinoa, with lime wedges on the side.
