Cut the zucchini, eggplant, and green beans into large pieces.
Finely chop the onion, garlic, and ginger, and pat the shrimp dry.
Soften the onion in vegetable oil for 5 minutes, then add the garlic and ginger and cook for 1 minute.
Add the green beans and eggplant, cover, and cook for 6 minutes.
Add the zucchini, coconut milk, salt, and black pepper, then cook over low heat for 10 minutes.
Add the shrimp and cook for 4 minutes until pink.
Prepare the rice for serving and serve the ginataang gulay hot with rice.
💡 Tip: Add the coconut milk once the vegetables are half cooked; if it boils for too long, the fat separates and the sauce loses its shine.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve ginataang gulay as a vegetable-forward main dish with plain rice and optional lemony green salad.
