Ingredients

2 (14 ounce) cans unsweetened coconut milk
2 medium yellow squash
1 medium zucchini
3 tablespoons sesame oil, divided
1 large sweet onion, sliced
1 cup snow peas
½ cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1 tablespoon green curry paste, or more to taste
1 cup frozen peas
1 cup vegetable broth
½ cup baby corn, drained
½ cup sliced bamboo shoots, drained
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 (12 ounce) package extra-firm tofu, cubed
1 cup fresh bean sprouts
10 leaves fresh basil

Steps:

Skim cream off the top of the coconut milk; set both cream and milk aside. Slice yellow squash and zucchini lengthwise, then cut each slices into quarters.
Heat 1/2 of the sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute squash, zucchini, onion, pea pods, mushrooms, and garlic until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Do not brown.
Heat remaining oil in a separate large frying pan over medium heat. Fry curry paste with coconut cream in the hot oil for 1 minute to take the bitterness off of the spice. Add coconut milk, frozen peas, vegetable broth, baby corn, bamboo shoots, sugar, and soy sauce; bring just barely to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, 20 to 30 minutes.
Just before serving, stir in tofu, sprouts, and basil. Cook until heated through, about 5 minutes.
