  • 2 tablespoons red curry paste
  • 2 bell peppers (sliced)
  • 1 onion (sliced)
  • 3 cloves of garlic (minced)

To start, heat a wok over medium-high heat and add the red curry paste. Stir-fry for a minute until fragrant, then add the minced garlic and grated ginger. Cook for another minute before adding the sliced bell peppers and onion. Continue to stir-fry until the vegetables are slightly tender.

Next, pour in the coconut milk and soy sauce, stirring well to combine. Allow the mixture to simmer for a few minutes to let the flavors meld together. Once the sauce has thickened slightly, add the shrimp and chili flakes. Cook until the shrimp are pink and opaque, then squeeze the lime juice over the dish.
