Step 1
In a large pot or wok, heat 2 tbsp of the coconut milk over medium heat until it bubbles, about 2 minutes. Add the 3 tbsp red curry paste and stir-fry until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Step 2
Add the 500g sliced meat and cook, stirring, until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. The meat should look seared and no longer raw.
Step 3
Pour in the remaining coconut milk and 4 kaffir lime leaves. Bring to a gentle simmer, then add the 300g mixed vegetables. Cook until the vegetables are tender-crisp and the sauce has thickened slightly, about 8 minutes.
Step 4
Stir in the 2 tbsp fish sauce. Taste and adjust with more fish sauce or a pinch of sugar if you like. Serve hot with rice or rice noodles.
