Stir in the curry leaves, pandan leaf, and turmeric powder. Cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly.

Add the cubed sweet potato, pumpkin, carrots, and green beans to the pot. Pour in the coconut milk and add salt to taste. Stir everything to combine.
💡 Consigli Professionali: Ensure all vegetables are submerged in the coconut milk for even cooking. - 5
Bring the curry to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
💡 Consigli Professionali: Simmering allows the flavors to meld and the vegetables to cook through without becoming mushy. - 6
