Vegetarian Thai Massaman Curry Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

With indian influences and popular amongst muslim communities in southern thailand, massaman curry is a truly global dish. This vegetarian and vegan version is simplified for american cooks, but still has a distinct kick from the unique combination of spices: ginger, turmeric, cinnamon and a bit of sugar and especially the chinese five-spice powder. Yes, i know it sounds odd, but give it a try and see if you don't just like it as much as i doTraditional thai massaman curry ingredients are chicken and potatoes, which is why this vegetarian version uses seitan, but if you want to add veggies, try baby corn or green peas. Or, instead of the seitan, pick up a chicken substitute from the grocery store. Gardein is one popular brand, and beyond meat strips also get high reviews, but any kind of vegetarian meat substitute you like will work just fine, even plain tofu in place of the seitan.
