Thai Green curry...


We had such a muggy day here yesterday...36C and afternoon thunderstorms...

-

For dinner, I tried one of Marion Grasby’s cooking kits - Thai gree curry.  All I need to add is...

...a cup of fresh veggies...

... 500gms meat - I like chicken but you could do beef, duck, pork....

This is the dried flavour mix of basil, kaffir lime and chillies.  I took out half the chillies.

I fried off the curry paste...

...added in the coconut milk, water and dried goods...

The veggies and chicken go in to poach away until tender.  After a taste, I decided to add 2 tspns brown sugar to sweeten it off plus zest of a lime and a squeeze of juice...

It was a very nice curry but on a warm, muggy night, it certainly had us sweating!   I think I’d use a but less curry paste next time (Marion does suggest this if you don’t like it hot).  I think these kits would be great for when we go camping - you can also get many other flavour kits in the range - just add fresh veg and a protein.

This is not a sponsored post, I just saw the kits in the supermarket and though I’d give it a go and I’m glad I did.

  1. sounds nice, you could also add honey instead of the sugar too.
    stir fries are a great way to use up leftovers, i love rice noodles to go with most. (soups too)
    great idea for camping
