Green Thai Curry

This is one of my favourite dishes to make and eat and my boyfriend loves it too. 


I first made this during a power cut, luckily I had lots of candles to cook by and it was a success and every since then this had been my favourite thing to make as it is so quick and easy and has loads of room for experiment. 


So to make your very own Thai green curry - Jessie-Lou style you will need:

2-3 chicken breasts (depending on size and how many you are cooking for) chopped 

1 onion - finely chopped

1 red pepper - diced or sliced 

1 lime squeezed for the juice

1 can of coconut milk - reduced fat coconut milk always works really well

2 tsp - honey

3 tbsp - Thai green curry paste

1 chili - chopped, i added some seeds but not all depending on how spicy you like it

salt and pepper for seasoning

1. First prepare everything, my boyfriend always has a go at me as i never prepare properly and go steaming in and then panic when things go wrong.

2. Once all the ingredients are prepared, cook the dice chicken till it looked cooked all the way through. 

3. Then add the onion, chili and pepper till it looks soft and brown. 

4. Once onions are browning (not burnt) add half the lime juice and 1 tsp of honey into the pan and stir over the chicken. 

5. Then add 1 tbsp of the curry paste and stir whilst adding some coconut milk.

6. Keep adding the curry paste and milk to the heat you like, then add the rest of the lime juice and honey (or add as much as you like to sweeten it)

7. Once everything is added and seasoned to taste, leave to simmer (not boil), usually about 20 minutes and stir continuously 

8. Then prepare rice or noodles to serve with the curry, I use noodles as i'm not a fan of rice. 

9. Dish up and serve with poppadoms or nan breads and enjoy. 

Yummy 

Jessie-Lou
