Easy & Quick Instant Pot Green Thai Curry Recipe

This is another of our family favorites.

Have I told you before that my family loves Thai Food? Though Red Thai Curry is the first choice along with Tom Yum Soup. We do order Green Thai Curry quite often for a pleasant change.

If you ask me, then my preference is always Green Thai Curry since it is slightly spicier.

The Base of Coconut Milk along with all the herbs makes this curry so flavorful and aromatic. The best part is that it can be easily personalized.

Though the original Curries from Thai Cuisine are not even vegetarian, let alone be vegan. The original Thai curry is more seafood and meat focused.

The rise of Vegetarian and Vegan Eaters in the USA has pushed the Thai American Restaurants to create the vegetarian and vegan versions as well. Thank God for that.

Since there are few companies which are manufacturing Vegan Thai Curry Pastes, it has become so convenient to cook it at home.

Green Thai Curry Ingredients

If you are making the Vegan Green Curry from scratch, then it is a long process. I skip that long process and go semi-homemade way.

Here are the ingredients that I use to make Green Thai Curry in Instant Pot. I am not claiming it to be an authentic recipe. It is more like a Thai American rendition. 

Thai Curry is a balance of all the five flavors – salty, umami, sweet, sour and spicy.

• • Vegan base Green Thai Curry Paste – I always use Thai Kitchen brand. It is vegan.

• • Coconut Milk – I use 50/50 light coconut milk & regular coconut milk.

• • Seasonal Vegetables – Broccoli, Carrots, Onion, Ginger, Bell Peppers, Celery, Green Beans, Bok Choy, baby eggplants, zucchini, squash and whatever is handy.
  • Canned Vegetables – like Bamboo shoots, Baby Corn, Water chestnuts.
  • Herbs – Thai Basil, Lemon Grass, Cilantro leaves, Kafir Lime (if available). I normally go without the fresh herbs since these are hard to find. The curry is still very flavorful as Thai Kitchen Curry Paste already has everything in it.
  • The Umami – Soy Sauce for Vegetarian & Tamari Sauce for Vegan.

• • Heat Factor – Chili sauce like Sriracha and/or Jalapenos.

• The Sweetening Agent – I use Brown Sugar.
• Souring Agent – Lemon or Lime juice and/or zest.
• Protein of Choice (optional) – I use Steamed or fried TOFU sometimes. Other soy products would be great too.

How to make Vegan Green Thai Curry in Instant Pot?

Tips to Personalize Vegan Green Thai Curry in Instant Pot

The best part about creating recipes is that these can be easily adapted. You can literally pick and choose to flavor the Green Thai Curry, as you want.

• I always advise starting with less amount of condiments and then build it up as per your taste.
• Vegetables – There is no hard and fast rule in my books to use only such and such vegetables in the curry. Use whatever vegetables you have handy. Frozen or fresh or canned, whatever comes your way.
• You may or may not add Tofu in the curry. It is a personal choice. I sometimes do and sometimes do not.
• Though I like my Thai Green Curry to be spicier. But you can choose the heat level of the curry per your preference. If you think that the mentioned amount of chili sauce or jalapenos is more than you can handle, just cut it down to milder taste or skip it.
• You can add more sugar to the curry if preferred sweeter. The best part is that the sugar can be adjusted towards the end as well.
• Similarly, the amount of soy/tamari sauce and sourness can be adjusted to taste.
