- 1 lb pork tenderloin or pork loin, thinly sliced against the grain
- 1 can (13.5 oz) full-fat coconut milk
- 2 tbsp thai red curry paste

Chef's tipAvocado oil is neutral and handles high heat, making it a good all-purpose swap. - 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
- 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

- 1 tsp sugar
Chef's tipUse the same amount. Coconut sugar has a mild caramel flavor, and baked goods come out a little darker and slightly less sweet. - 1 tbsp fresh lime juice

For serving
