Preparation

Heat olive oil in a large stockpot or use the “Sauté” feature on the Instant Pot. Add garlic and ginger and sauté for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the garlic is fragrant. Add in the vegetable stock and coconut milk, and stir to combine.

Continue cooking until the broth nearly reaches a simmer. Then add in 3 or 4 tablespoons of the curry paste, and whisk until it has dissolved. Taste, and add more curry paste if you’d like.

Cover and simmer for 5 minutes then remove the ginger slices.

Serve to simmer. Then stir in your desired dippers, simmer until they have cooked, then use a strainer to transfer them to your individual serving bowl. Add a ladle-full of broth to the individual serving bowl.

Serve warm, garnished with your desired toppings.
