Whisk in the broth, sugar, fish sauce, and remaining coconut milk. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat.

Add the pork, carrots, and ginger and continue to simmer, adjusting the heat as necessary. After 2 minutes, add the baby corn and shiitakes and continue to simmer until everything is tender and cooked through, about 3 more minutes.

Remove the curry from the heat. Season to taste with more sugar and fish sauce, and stir in the basil. Transfer to a serving bowl (or serve right out of the pot). Remove the ginger slices or tell your guests to eat around them. Garnish with the cucumber strips and cilantro leaves.
