Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
- 1/2 yellow onion sliced
- 1 red bell pepper sliced
- 1 cup kabocha pre-cooked and cubed into bite size pieces
- 1 1/2 tablespoons green curry paste such as Mae Ploy
- 13.5 ounces coconut milk 1 can
- 1 pound shrimp uncooked
- 2 tablespoons Lakanto monk fruit sweetener or 4 tablespoons coconut aminos
- 1 teaspoon fish sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon salt to taste
- juice of one lime

Instructions
- Add a tablespoon of avocado oil to a pan and cook onions and peppers over medium-high heat until the onions become translucent, 5-8 minutes. Remove to a bowl and set aside but do not clean pan.
- Season the shrimp with a bit of salt. In the now empty pan, add another half tablespoon of avocado oil and when hot, add the shrimp. Cook until just opaque, about 2 minutes per side. Remove from pan and add to the onion mixture.
- Add curry to the pan and cook on high for about one minute, until fragrant. Add coconut milk and coconut cream. Bring to a boil and season to taste with monk fruit, fish sauce, salt, and lime juice.
- Finally, Add back all veggies and shrimp. Finish with some lime juice and several handfuls of fresh basil.
