Ingredients:

1 tbsp peanut oil
16g
1 onion
160g
2 tbsp curry paste
30g
3 pork fillets
600g
2 cups coconut milk
460g
1 tbsp fish sauce
16g
2 tsp brown sugar
6g
1 red pepper
80g
1/2 cup green beans
120g
1/3 cup peanuts
50g
2 red hot chili peppers
80g

Instructions:

1. Prepare Ingredients:
- Begin by preparing all your ingredients. Finely chop the onion, slice the red pepper and pork fillets into thin strips, trim and cut the green beans, and finely chop the red hot chili peppers.
2. Heat the Oil:
- In a large skillet or wok, heat the peanut oil over medium-high heat.
3. Sauté Onion:
- Add the finely chopped onion to the hot oil. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes until the onion is softened and translucent.
4. Add Curry Paste:
- Stir in the curry paste and cook for another minute, allowing the flavors to meld together.
5. Cook Pork:
- Add the sliced pork fillets to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the pork is browned on all sides.
6. Incorporate Liquids:
- Pour in the coconut milk, fish sauce, and add the brown sugar. Stir well to combine.
7. Simmer:
- Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Reduce the heat to medium-low and let it cook for about 10 minutes, allowing the pork to cook through and the flavors to develop.
8. Add Vegetables:
- Add the sliced red pepper, green beans, and chopped red hot chili peppers to the skillet. Continue to simmer for an additional 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still vibrant in color.
9. Finish with Peanuts:
- Stir in the roughly chopped peanuts and cook for another minute to heat through.
10. Serve:
- Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve the pork curry hot, preferably over steamed rice or with warm naan bread.

Tips:

- For a more intense flavor, marinate the pork fillets in the curry paste for a few hours before cooking.

- If you prefer a milder curry, remove the seeds from the red hot chili peppers before adding them to the dish.

- Garnish your pork curry with fresh cilantro or basil for an extra burst of freshness and color.

- To make the curry thicker, let it simmer uncovered for a few extra minutes until you reach your desired consistency.

- Experiment with different vegetables such as carrots, mushrooms or eggplant to add variety and depth to your curry.

Once you've followed these steps, you'll have a delicious pork curry that's rich in flavor and texture. This dish pairs beautifully with steamed rice or naan bread. Enjoy your home-cooked pork curry with family and friends, and savor the blend of spices and creamy coconut goodness.
