These one pot meals in my Instant Pot (IP) are the best on my busy endoscopy days. I just throw in all these ingredients in the morning and come back to an awesome dinner! It really helps when you come back home with some HANGRY kids! Haha!
And it definitely helps when the entire family LOVES Thai food.
Also did I tell you that it is just a 1 MINUTE recipe in IP!
You will need:
Oil:
1 tbsp olive/vegetable/canola oil
Veggies:
3-4 chives/green onions chopped
1 carrot diced/sliced/julienned
1 cup mushrooms whole/sliced
1 cup broccoli florets
1 cup greens (I used tatsoi from my Gardyn)
You could use any greens like spinach, bok choy, kale etc.
You could use other veggies like peppers, zucchini, squash as well.
I used our home grown oyster mushrooms today. Om was very excited to grow them and eat them eventually!
Protein:
1 14oz pack tofu cubed
Herbs (optional):
Thai basil whole/chopped (used from my Gardyn)
1 inch lemongrass sliced/ 1 tsp paste (I didn’t have any)
Soup base:
1 14oz can coconut milk
2-3 cups vegetable broth
Noodles:
white/brown rice noodles (1/4 of 14oz pack)
Seasonings:
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp red Thai curry paste
1 tbsp agave/honey/brown sugar
salt per taste
Garnish:
lime juice from 1/2 lime (or 1 tbsp rice vinegar)
cilantro chopped
Method:
Heat oil in IP on sauté mode. Add in the veggies. Sauté them for a bit. Mix in the soup base, seasonings, tofu and herbs. Add the noodles, if they don’t fit the IP you could break them. Close the IP lid, set valve to sealed position. Cook at manual high pressure mode for 1 minute. Wait for natural pressure release. Add in the greens and lime juice. Serve hot.
ENJOY!
