  • Skim cream off the top of the coconut milk; set both cream and milk aside. Slice yellow squash and zucchini lengthwise, then cut each slices into quarters.
  • Heat 1/2 of the sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute squash, zucchini, onion, pea pods, mushrooms, and garlic until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Do not brown.
  • Heat remaining oil in a separate large frying pan over medium heat. Fry curry paste with coconut cream in the hot oil for 1 minute to take the bitterness off of the spice. Add coconut milk, frozen peas, vegetable broth, baby corn, bamboo shoots, sugar, and soy sauce; bring just barely to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Just before serving, stir in tofu, sprouts, and basil. Cook until heated through, about 5 minutes.
