Method
Trim the green beans into 4cm lengths and finely slice the makrut lime leaves.
Heat the vegetable oil in a wok over medium-high heat and fry the curry paste for 2 minutes until fragrant and the oil starts to separate.
Add the tofu and bamboo shoots and stir-fry for 5 minutes until the tofu is lightly golden.
Add the green beans and makrut lime leaves and stir-fry for 4 minutes until the beans are just tender.
Season with the light soy sauce and palm sugar, tossing to coat.
Remove from the heat, stir through the holy basil until wilted, and scatter with the sliced red chilli.
