Ingredients

• 8 ounces spaghetti
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 small onion, diced
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon curry powder
• 1 can (14 ounces) coconut milk
• 1 cup vegetable broth
• 1 cup fresh spinach, roughly chopped
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh cilantro, for garnish

How to Make Creamy Coconut Curry Pasta

1. Cook the spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until translucent.
3. Add the minced garlic and curry powder to the skillet; cook for another minute until fragrant.
4. Pour in the coconut milk and vegetable broth, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
5. Stir in the fresh spinach and allow it to wilt, about 2 minutes.
6. Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet, tossing to coat in the creamy sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
7. Remove from heat and garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.

Tips for the Best Results

• For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a splash of sriracha to the sauce.
• Make sure to stir frequently to prevent the coconut milk from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
• Don’t skip the fresh cilantro garnish; it adds brightness and flavor.

Easy Variations

• For added protein, toss in cooked shrimp, chicken, or chickpeas.
• Swap out the spinach for other vegetables like bell peppers, peas, or zucchini.
• Use whole wheat or gluten-free pasta for a healthier or dietary-friendly option.

What to Serve With It

• A side salad with a light vinaigrette.
• Garlic bread or naan to soak up the delicious sauce.
• Steamed broccoli or green beans for extra veggies.

Storage and Reheating

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply warm in a skillet over low heat, adding a splash of vegetable broth or water to loosen the sauce if necessary.
