Vegan Thai Peanut Curry

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe Pin Recipe

Our Thai-inspired vegan peanut curry is creamy, rich, packed full of flavour and absolutely delicious.

Vegan Thai Peanut Curry

If you already know us a little bit you probably know how much we love Asian food, especially Thai food. We enjoy making our vegan curries from scratch and adding loads of fresh veggies to them. This vegan peanut curry is our all-time favourite and we hope it will be yours too.

Curries are always a great option when we have people over for lunch or dinner. You can cook the meal using one big pot and it can be prepared in advance. Depending on our guests' preferences, we make the Thai curries milder or spicier and use the fresh veggies that we already have at home.

This vegan Thai Peanut curry recipe is perfect for kids and toddlers as well. If you are looking for a curry for kids, this is your place too! The curry sauce is mild and the dish is packed full of veggies. We like adding Luca's favourite veggies such as green beans, carrots and mushrooms for him to enjoy the meal.

Our Thai Peanut Curry is:

  • Vegan
  • Family-friendly
  • Gluten-free if using tamari instead of soy sauce.
  • Mild
  • Easy to make
  • Umami-packed
  • Main dish
  • Filling

How to cook Thai Peanut Curry

Ingredients

Tofu. For this recipe, we use tofu as the main protein (as well as the peanut butter). Tempeh is a great option for Thai curries as well. If you want some extra protein, add some toasted cashews or sesame seeds before serving the dish.

Spice Mix. We use a simple spice mix to marinate the tofu. You will probably already have everything at home or you will find them easily at your local supermarket. Our spice mix contains cinnamon, turmeric, cumin, coriander powder, sweet paprika and sugar.

Soy sauce or tamari. Used together with the spices to marinate the tofu. We use light soy sauce or tamari for a gluten-free option.

Curry paste. We made a simple curry paste that we learnt how to make while travelling around Thailand that uses garlic, onion, ginger, red chillies and carrot. We don't add the chillies if we are cooking for our toddler Luca. Everything gets slightly sauteed and blended into a paste. If you want to skip this part, you could use this peanut curry paste from Thai Kitchen.

Vegetable Stock or water. We prefer using vegetable stock as it gives the curry sauce a more intense flavour but you can use water or a stock cube.

Peanut butter or crushed peanuts. For our Peanut curry, you can use unsalted crushed peanuts or peanut butter. The easiest way is using smooth peanut butter.

Coconut milk. To make this curry creamy, we add coconut milk. You can as well add cashew cream or even soy cream or milk.

Fresh Veggies. Loads of fresh veggies! Chop as many veggies as you like to add to your Thai peanut curry. Our favourite vegetables to add to this vegetable curry are red peppers, broccoli, baby corn, carrot and cauliflower.

Step-by-Step Method

  1. Marinate the tofu. Cut a tofu block into cubes and prepare the marinade. In a small bowl mix soy sauce, cinnamon, turmeric, cumin, coriander powder, sweet paprika, and sugar. Add the marinade to the tofu and leave it to marinate while you chop the veggies.
  2. Chop the veggies. For our peanut curry, you can add any vegetables that you like or may have at home. For curries, we especially like broccoli, bell peppers, baby corn, zucchini, or carrots.
  3. Prepare the curry sauce. Heat some oil in a pan and add finely chopped garlic, onion, red chilies, ginger, and carrot. Stir fry for a couple of minutes and transfer into a big jug. Add 500ml of vegetable stock, crushed peanuts or peanut butter, sugar, and soy sauce. Blend all the ingredients until you have a smooth sauce. If you prefer to use a store-bought paste, this is the brand we recommend you buy.
  4. Cook the curry. Heat some oil in a big pan or pot and add the chopped vegetables and the marinated tofu. Cook for a couple of minutes until the vegetables start to turn golden. Add the peanut sauce and coconut milk. Bring to a simmer and leave simmering for about 15 minutes. Adjust with salt and pepper and your curry will be ready to enjoy.

How to serve Vegetarian Peanut Curry

We like serving our curries with jasmine rice on the side. If you add more coconut milk, water, or homemade broth, the curry can be served as a coconut soup and even as a noodle soup if rice noodles are added to the broth.

For a better presentation, crushed peanuts or fresh chopped cilantro simply sprinkled on the top will make your dish look restaurant-like.

How to make delicious Thai curries at home

We only used to eat Thai curries when eating out, until we travelled around Asia for a good few months and realized how easy it was to cook Asian food at home when you have the right ingredients available.

We have a few tips or tricks when it comes to cooking Thai curries at home:

  • Make the curry paste from scratch. We know for a fact that you can get a Thai curry using a store-bought paste, we have been there, but homemade paste, that’s another level.
  • Use a good amount of garlic and ginger, both are essential ingredients in Asian cooking.
  • Choose the right ingredients. If you have a nearby Asian store, go there to buy a good quality soy sauce, good quality spices, chillies, ginger, galangal, lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves and any other ingredients that are commonly used. You can freeze the kaffir lime leaves, galangal, chillies and lemongrass to have for the next time you want to cook another curry.
  • Use good quality coconut milk. When buying coconut milk always check the % of coconut extract that the can contains. The higher the better. If you are hesitating about which brand to buy, go directly for the can that contains a higher amount of coconut extract.
  • Cook your curries in a non-stick pot or pan. We use our cast iron pan or pot when preparing curries as they are perfect for slow cooking.

FAQ and Tips

  • Can this Peanut Curry be made in advance? Prepare and freeze the peanut curry sauce and the day you want to cook the meal simply add fresh veggies and tofu! 
  • Can I freeze the leftovers? Yes, you can freeze any leftovers for up to three months. I do not recommend using zucchini or potatoes if you want to freeze your curry after.
  • Which type of tofu should I use? Firm tofu is the best tofu to use for this recipe. It won't break or crumble while cooking your curry.
  • Is this curry toddler and kids-friendly? This peanut curry is perfect for the whole family. Simply omit the chillies from the curry paste and the whole family can enjoy this meal.
  • Is this curry gluten-free? To make this vegetable curry gluten-free you'll need to use tamari instead of soy sauce and make sure you are using gluten-free stock.
  • My sauce came out too watery, what can I do? If you want a thicker curry, you can add some flour or cornflour slurry (diluted cornflour in water). Another option is to use potato as one of the veggies, as it will soak some of the water of the sauce.

    This was absolutely delicious. As a vegan I often get asked the same sorts of questions; isn't it expensive? Is it not really complicated? Well it can be, just like any diet can be, but you can also make delicious food cheaply and easily. This recipe ticks both those boxes, I used veg that I had in, baby corn, mangetout and spinach. I will 100% make again, I would like to try it with some different veg next time, mix it up.

      I actually ended up omitting the coconut milk because my fryingpan turned out to be too small, but I added a splash of oat milk and it was still delicious! Though I don't doubt that it would be even better with it! I used carrots, corn and spinach for my veggies.

    I made this the other night timing was accurate on prep amd cook. I have never cooked with tofu, I used an extra firm organic brand and it crumbled badly, but the smell was very nice and it tasted very good. I can't watt to give it another shot. My dish didnt look as pretty so I'll have to work on that.

      Thank you Tarren, about the tofu, I would suggest trying a different brand. Some brands crumble easily while others keep really firm during cooking.

    We did corn, bok choy and some small diced potatoes. I also seared the tofu for a few minutes in oil before I added the veggies to the pan. It was perfect!

    I made this for a potluck dinner I had with the family I nanny. I added broccoli, cauliflower and more carrots! It was such a hit it was so amazing! I'm completely obsessed with the homemade peanut sauce!

    Absolutely delicious! We ate it with rice when I made it and then the leftovers with rice noddles. I used broccoli and red peppers but green chili, I didn’t had red. It was far better then the ones I made before. Thank you

    Going to make this tonight! I'm just trying to decide what veggies as I have so many and I'm worried about a weird combo. I have these adorable baby fairytale eggplant. But I also have shiitake mushrooms. I don't think those will go well together. So I think I'll stick to the mushroom, bell peppers, carrots. I do have some purslane I might sneak in. No tofu today but I have tempeh and I'm thinking of marinating that? We'll see!

    Hi Laura,
    This is a lovely sweet and spicy recipe and the taste is excellent. My added vegetables were 2 small carrots, 1/2 small sweet green pepper, 1/2 small stick celery, 3 medium mushrooms. But with the metric version of the recipe advising 500ml stock + 400ml coconut milk, by the end of the recipe's suggested cooking time it was a very liquid runny soup. I then had to reduce it uncovered on a medium-high heat for about 30 minutes to get back to a thicker sauce. Next time, I think I would add a veggie stock cube with zero water + 400ml coconut milk. Any ideas what I did wrong?
    Btw, Google says:
    - 500ml is 16.9 US fl oz, recipe says 18 = ok
    - 400ml is 13.5 US fl oz, recipe says 14 = ok
    so the US / metric conversion is ok.
    Not a criticism, but seeking advice. Your recipe has lovely flavours, I served it with plain al dente bismati rice, boiled with frozen green peas.
    Καλή Όρεξη!

      Hi Stuart, I guess it depends on the cooking temperature you are setting and the vegetables you are using. As well, some coconut milk is more liquid than others, maybe we are using a more creamy one if that makes sense. I hope you can find the perfect measures to your taste and thanks for your nice comments!

    Loved this recipe, incredibly tasty but I added lime juice to my leftovers which I felt really lifted the dish! I managed to do a lot of the prep the day before so was a lot quicker when I went to cook it. Also managed to forget to buy chillies so just added chilli flakes which still worked well. Would 100% make this again!

    Loved the flavour of this dish and how easy it is to prepare and make! My only criticism was the tofu. I doubt it was the recipes fault, just my own.

    I have only converted to vegetarian a few weeks ago and cooked tofu for the first time last week. I was expecting it to be a little crisper than it was but I think that was just the way I cooked it.

    I added chilli flakes as I had no fresh chilli. 75% was coconut milk and 25% coconut cream. I added zucchini, snap peas and sweet potato.

    I will 100% make again. Next time I think I will substitute tofu with chickpeas; use sweet potato, zucchini and baby corn as vegetables.

    Another comment mentioned adding lime and it lifted it. I'll try squeezing some orange into it next time too, I found this lifted another dish to the next level, excited to try with this one.

    Thankyou for posting.

    Loved it! I had cooked brown rice so I just through it in to simmer with it. Although I loved the presentation as you made it and adding cooked brown rice made it little more thick as it absorbed some liquid. This will be added to our repertoire. For vegetables I used broccoli, spinach and mushrooms. Soooo good 🙂 Now I really want to start playing with making my own curry pastes. As you said, they are much better. Thank you.

    Made this tonight and it was a bit! We’re saving this recipe to add into our regular circulation. I found it a bit mellow so we added some kafir lime leaves (we keep a stash in our freezer because you can only buy it as a bunch, but I only ever use a couple at a time, so freezing it allows us to get the most out of the bunch). I HIGHLY RECOMMEND adding the kafir lime leaves - it kicked this curry up a notch for sure. Thanks!

      Hi Olivia, you can subtitute soy sauce for dried shiitake mushroom stock (leave shiitake mushroom simmering in water for about 15 minutes and you will be left with a nice stock). About the peanut butter, maybe you can try using cashew or almond butter, im sure it will still be super tasty!

    I’m eating this curry as it cooks so there probably won’t be any left for my family. It is SO good. I used sugar snap peas, green peppers, and broccoli as my mixed veggies. Also I felt lazy and used my garam masala as a substitute for most of the seasonings since the flavor profile sounded pretty similar.
    This recipe is definitely going to get made again and again. Thanks!

    I’ve been cutting back on meat consumption for a while now and have been working to get my meat loving partner to as well for about the past year. Recipes like this have definitely helped and we definitely plan to add this to our list to make again! Flavors were great and we added broccoli, snow peas, red/green bell pepper, squash and carrots. I did run into the tofu issue of being too soft and not holding form. I will probably press it before I marinade and then fry or bake separately next time until the end. I was wondering in the photo what the leaf was — bay leaf or curry? I noticed star anise as well, but didn’t see it on the list. Thanks!

    I really hoped to enjoy this, the final picture shows crispy tofu on the top so I cooked this separately as the soggy tofu in the other picture didn't look too appetising. Problem is that with the coating of ground spices, the tofu doesn't get a chance to crisp up without first burning those spices. So I still ended up with soggy tofu, and even though I ended up mixing it in, the flavour profile of this didn't go well with the coconut curry sauce, which in itself was nothing ground breaking. I wouldn't normally post a bad review but I was kind of astounded by the number of positive reviews, perhaps these people have never tried Thai food before. Sorry.

      Hi Annette, I am really sorry that it didn't go as planned. This recipe tries to bring Thai flavors with simple ingredients that most people already have at home. The tofu gets marinated not just with spices but soy sauce too. If you cook it at medium-low temperature, the spices won't burn and your tofu will cook nicely. If you want extra crispy tofu, You will need to deep fry it and simply add the marinade ingredients when adding the veggies. Thanks for your comment!
