Thai Vegetarian Stir-Fry

In Germany I found out that the ubercoolundergroundhipster cousin learned how to cook really well. I couldn't not force a good meal out of him. So voilà! Thai vegetarian stir fry courtesy of my cousin Kostia:

Vegetables:

• kale
• zucchini
• aubergine
• brocoli
• carrots
• pretty much anything except for tomatoes

Paste:

• 2 long sticks of lemongrass (fleshy part-cut it, when it's woody you stop cutting it, slice it longwise and add it in)
• 3-5 garlic cloves
• red onion or shallots
• cloves
• sesame seeds
• turmeric
• 1 thumb amount of galangal
• lime juice
• lime zest
• 1 tbsp soya sauce
• 1 tbsp fish sauce
• 2-3 tbsp any oil (olive let's say)
• coriander
• kafir leaves chopped
• small green chillies
• basil leaves

Cooking instructions:

• Throw in the pan whatever has to cook the longest (like meat if you add any, carrots, broccoli)
• After some time add the paste
• Throw in vegetables
• Add coconut milk (amount : up to you)

Enjoy!

*My cousin would drizzle it all with crunchy dried onions pictured here above.
