Detailed steps and method 👩‍🍳

Prepare ingredients:
Wash pork and cut into bite-sized pieces. 🔪
Wash long beans and cut into 1-2 inch pieces.
Tear kaffir lime leaves. Prepare curry paste and seasonings.

How to make 🍳

Stir-fry the curry paste until fragrant:
Heat a pan over medium-low heat with a little vegetable oil. 🔥
Add the curry paste and stir-fry until fragrant and the flavors begin to separate. (If you prefer a more vibrant color and richer flavor, use a little coconut cream instead of oil. Or, stir-fry with oil until fragrant, then add a small amount of the first coconut milk and stir-fry until the coconut milk separates.)
Stir-fry the pork and add the coconut milk:
Increase the heat slightly, add the sliced pork, and stir-fry until the pork begins to cook and changes color. 🔄

Add the remaining coconut milk (make sure it's thick enough, not too much like a curry). Stir-fry to combine. 🥥
Seasoning:
Season with fish sauce and palm sugar (or granulated sugar). Taste and adjust the flavor to your liking. It should be spicy, salty, and slightly sweet. 🧂
Add vegetables:
Add the long beans and stir-fry quickly (do not over-stir to maintain the beans' crispiness and beautiful color). 💚

Final Step:
Add the torn kaffir lime leaves and diagonally sliced red chili peppers (if using) and stir-fry for 15-30 seconds to release the aroma of the kaffir lime leaves. 🌿

Turn off the heat, ladle into a plate, and serve with hot steamed rice. 🍚
