Plunge 3 hands of green beans into boiling water for about 2 minutes until just tender, and drain well. In a large sauté pan, heat 2 tbsp oil, add 2 chopped shallots and 2 minced garlic cloves and stir-fry for about 2 minutes (until translucent). Add the shrimp and stir-fry just until the shrimps are almost tender.
In de meanwhile add 350 ml coconut milk to a large wok until it’s cooking, then add 2 tbsp red curry paste and stir so the two will blend well. Add 1 tbsp fish sauce, 1/2 tbsp oyster sauce and some lemongrass to taste. Add 2 hands of mung bean sprouts, 2 hands of chopped wild mushrooms and the green beans and cook for another 2 minutes! Then add the shrimps together with the garlic and the shallots. Add some fresh cilantro for the finishing touch.
Eat immediately with the pandan rice, and serve with fried onions and cassava or prawn crackers (krupuk). Enjoy!
