Author Notes
For this Thai green curry recipe, everything is cooked in a single pan - preferably a cast iron skillet. Cooking the meat and vegetables separately ensures that the vegetables maintain a crunchy texture and the meat is properly browned. —Savannah Wishart

Directions
-
Heat coconut oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat (hot but not smoking). Stir-fry shallots, minced garlic, and ginger for two minutes. Add ground lamb and beef, and stir fry for 8-10 minutes until browned. (You may need to brown in batches, depending on your size of skillet). In the last two minutes, stir in chili powder. Transfer mixture to a bowl and set aside.
-
Add 1 tablespoon of coconut oil. Fry chopped bell pepper until lightly browned, but still crunchy. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
-
Add coconut milk, bone broth, and green curry paste to the skillet. Bring to a boil. Lower to a gentle simmer and cook for about 5 minutes, to thicken the sauce.
-
Stir in date sugar, coconut aminos, and chopped basil. Return ground meat mixture to skillet and cook, stirring, until reheated.
-
Add peas and simmer for 3-4 minutes until bright green. Stir in tapioca starch. Remove from heat. Season with salt and lime juice, to taste.
-
Serve with rice and garnish with chopped cilantro and scallions.
