Cooking Instructions

The protein cooking time listed in this recipe has been updated.

As of December 2025, we’ve revised cooking times for all our proteins to reflect improved food safety guidance.

Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

Before you start

  • Pull out 2 large frying pans & a measuring jug

Time to fry

  • Dice the onions into 2cm chunks. Thinly slice the peppers
  • Heat a large frying pan with 1 tbsp oil on medium heat. Once hot, add the pork, onion and pepper and cook for 4-5 mins, until the pork has browned and the veg has softened. Season with salt and pepper

Simmer the curry

  • Stir the Panang curry sauce, creamed coconut and 200ml water into the pan. Bring to the boil and stir to dissolve the creamed coconut. Simmer for 7 mins, until the pork is cooked through
  • Add the sugar snap peas in the final 2-3 mins
  • Meanwhile, pick the basil leaves and roughly chop

Heat the rice

  • Heat the other large frying pan on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the rice and break it up with a wooden spoon. Add a splash of water and cook for 2-3 mins, until piping hot. Season with salt
  • Stir half the basil into the curry and season to taste

Plate up

  • Check your meat is cooked through; it should be golden brown, steaming hot, the juices should run clear when cut and there should be no pink / rare meat inside
  • Serve the pork Panang curry into bowls, with the rice alongside. Scatter over the remaining basil
