This Thai coconut curry sauce does not contain any animal products, so it can easily be turned into a vegan/vegetarian dish. The only other ingredients I added was a dash of salt and pepper to balance out all the flavors especially since I added tofu and bell peppers which can slightly wash out the flavors of the sauce.
Other popular ingredients found in Thai curry are: beef, shrimp, potatoes, carrots. There is no right or wrong way to enjoy this curry, so include any ingredients you have in your fridge.
