Описание: Thai Chicken Green Curry (Gaeng Keow Wan Gai)

Ingredients :

½ kg chicken
200gm green curry paste
400ml thick coconut milk
200ml extra milk
(use if necessary)
200ml water
(use only if necessary)
4 small green brinjals
(cut into half)
2 lemon grass (crushed)
Handful of fresh thai basil
Handful of Turkey berries
4 bird’s eye green chillies
3-4 kaffir lime leaves
Little lime skin (shredded)
1 tsp palm sugar
1 tsp fish sauce
Vegetable seasoning powder
Oil for cooking

Method :

1. Heat up a wok on medium low flame. Add 3-4 tbsp oil. Once hot, add in the lemon grass and brinjals. Cook for 5 minutes till it softens slightly.

2. Then, add in the chicken pieces and brown them lightly.

3. Now, add in the green curry paste and mix well. After 2-3 minutes, add the kaffir lime leaves and turkey berries. Blend well with the paste mix.

4. Add the fish sauce and partial basil leaves followed by the 400ml coconut milk. Allow it to boil until the chicken cooks.

5. When the chicken is almost done (80% cooked),check for the saltiness as some ready made paste can be quite salty. In such cases, you may add a little extra amount of coconut milk. I added an additional 200ml thick coconut milk. and 200ml water.

6. Finally, add in the palm sugar, the remaining basil leaves, green chillies and lime skin. Let it simmer for another 10 minutes. Then, give a quick boil on high flame for 1-2 minutes. Serve hot with fragrant white rice. Enjoy :)
