  Unfortunately when the milk reached simmering point it curdled. I scooped out the rubberised bits and carried on with the recipe. I needed to cook the butternut squash a lot longer than 5 minutes for it to soften enough to add the rest of the veggies. Despite all that it turned out fine and I would give it 10/10 for flavour and would definitely make it again.

  Very good - I used Carrot instead of squash and it needed at least 7 minutes cooking time. I found the mixture curdled as well.

  Will definitely use this recipe - but instead of lime which splits the creamed coconut I will use Lime Leaves which give a very authenic taste to any Thai curry.

  Not sure if it will work for this dish, but when I'm cooking Indian curries with dairy products and acidic ingredients like lemon/lime juice I find that adding a little ground almond can prevent them from curdling.

  Hmm. Not too impressed. I used coconut milk instead of regular and I don't know whether that's the reason but it came out extremely runny. Butternut squash did indeed take a lot longer than 5 minutes to cook. And I followed the above suggestion of adding a little ground almond but the liquid still split when I added the lime. All in all I wouldn't bother with it again.

  Adding fish sauce to season would make this recipe no longer suitable suitable for vegetarians!

  I tried this recipe tonight and absolutely loved it! I did not have any brocoli so I put some courgettes instead and it worked fine. I added two fresh green chili and a good teaspoon of chili powder, to give a nice kick to this curry. It is a must-try, it's tasty, quick, cheap and colourful. A winner.

  Looking forward to trying the recipe but will use Lime leaves instead of juice to hopfully prevent the milk splitting, also using fish sauce would mean that this is NO LONGER Veggie, so for those cooking for vegetarians be aware that you will have to leave out the fish sauce.

  Using kaffir lime leaves instead of lime juice definitely works & gives a more authentic flavour. You can always squeeze lime juice over at the end with some chopped fresh coriander... Useful & simple mid-week cooking - will def do again!
