Recipe for Red Vegan Curry from a friend in Thailand. Filled with spicy curry with vegetables dancing in the bowl with Thai rice cakes.
Unfortunately, this is the last of my cooking class with SJ International. They decided to close after losing 60% of their business during the year of Covid. To be such a thriving business to then close your doors after 10 years is so heartbreaking to hear.
So I can say that the stimulus checks did not help small businesses and here is one of many. I can only say to my friends, that I love their food, their spirit, kindness, and for all that they taught me, thank you and may your future be brighter and more successful than before.
This is a meal packed with flavor which is what I like in a dish. The best part about learning how to make this recipe for Red Vegan Curry is how inexpensive it is to make compared to eating at a Thai restaurant. I consider myself lucky that I learned how to make the real deal red curry from Thailand.
A little about Thailand
Bangkok is the capital city of Thailand and the center of the country’s economy. Thailand has over 14 million residents. It is considered a large metropolis, which is filled with skyscrapers, shopping malls, sky trains alongside more traditional markets, parks, and waterways. Tourism is 6% of the economy of Thailand that has grown over the years. Around 1.5 million people were estimated to enter into poverty in 2020 due to the pandemic, says the World Bank.
People love to travel to this exotic destination because of the beaches, exotic cuisine, magnificent temples, scenery with a colorful history that is full of cultural and archaeological sites. Buddhism arrived in Thailand from Sri Lanka and it became the dominant religion in both Thailand and Laos in the 12th century. Thailand is also a popular destination for health and wellness retreats, including Yoga!

Thai Rice Cakes
This is the first time I ever had Thai Rice Cakes and they were jumbo sixe rice grains. SP recommended them to me and they were perfect to make with the Red Vegan Curry. All I did was follow the package directions to make them. You can also order these from none other, Amazon. Which is a great place to order so many wonderful Asian cooking products.
