I kind of just throw this recipe together with any thing I have in the fridge in terms of veggies. Peppers make the best veggie in it, but you can try whatever. I don't measure out the paste or peanut butter and I add everything to taste. Play around with it and have fun!

Also - if you prefer shrimp curry, shrimp is a great substitute for chicken!
