Heat a wok and stir‑fry the curry paste in hot oil for 1–2 minutes until fragrant. Add shallots, garlic, ginger, and chili, sautéing while stirring. Add lime leaves and pour in coconut milk. Simmer on high heat for about 5 minutes to reduce slightly. Then add spring onions, bell pepper, tomatoes, and pak choi stems; cook another ~5 minutes.
