WHAT DOES GREEN THAI CURRY TASTE LIKE

Green Thai Curry has hints of spice, tang and sweet flavors. It really is something special and this recipe has all the same tastes that you would find at your local Thai restaurants too!

You may have thought that making Thai curry at home would be complicated, but I am here to tell you it is not. 

However I have found a healthy paste product that contains all those foreign ingredients that is out of this world amazing.

It will not only taste the exact same way as making it all from scratch, it will save you all the hassle of learning to do that and time.

What am I talking about? My favorite GREEN THAI CURRY PASTE! You can see that below!

Green Thai Curry is just a bit milder than Red Thai Curry, however both taste similar. There are plenty different ways to make Thai curry and that is because you can add just about any type of vegetable or meat protein to your dishes.

WHAT IS IN GREEN THAI CURRY

  • Thai Green Curry consists of some kind of protein, some kind of vegetable, lime juice, fish sauce, sugar and Coconut milk and Green Curry Paste.
  • Traditionally that paste is made in a mortar and is comprised of shallots, garlic, green chilies, galangal, lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves among some other ingredients and spices. 

This one here is made with Chicken breasts, Asparagus and Swiss Chard.

As you may know I love Thai food and make it a lot in our home. Actually I make it every week, because I crave it that much. With any of my Thai recipes, you will learn that you really only need a few ingredients in your fridge and pantry to make any of them easily.

And that is because, I have been making homemade Thai recipes for years. And have learned all the tricks to making it quickly and healthily for just about anyone who loves it. 

Making homemade Thai curry at home is really easy once you have all the basic ingredients! 

Once you picked your vegetable and protein you will simply want a quality coconut milk product (the less liquidity) the better and a pre-made green Thai curry paste along with some fish stock, sugar and salt. 

WHAT’S IN GREEN THAI CURRY PASTE

  • Fresh Green Chilli 
  • Lemongrass
  • Garlic

HOW MUCH GREEN THAI CURRY PASTE TO USE

Something to be savored!

Some people like to use one can of coconut for their Thai curries. I will do that at times too, however for this recipe I used two cans of light coconut milk which helps to make this dish go father and serves more people.

One can typically serves two people for dinner, two can’s can serve three. Being I adore Thai food, I will eat it all to myself if I can.

Another reason I like to use light coconut milk is because it’s healthier and being that I eat this dish almost every other week. It works well for me! 

However if your wanting a thicker sauce, you can use full fat coconut milk. Both work really good in this recipe and is something I do use at times.
