There’s no better fall side dish than this combo of golden potatoes and caramelized onions, brightened with a splash of vinegar. And while this one is a great addition to your Thanksgiving menu plans, you could also just make it tonight to eat with a pork tenderloin or simple baked salmon.

Chicken thighs and eggplant become silky and rich as they soak up this mix of coconut milk and green curry paste, but the cook time here is quick, especially if you’re starting with store-bought curry paste or a homemade version that you’ve stashed in the freezer. A final touch of Thai basil, chiles, fish sauce, palm sugar, and lime leaf brightens the dish.
