Other than being critical about, other people's food, I love to cook. I thought I could post one of my favorite recipes for some friends who were curious.
Thai Green curry
Ingredients:
Poached Chicken 1lb(I feel it stay more tender when added this way towards the end) you can use it raw and cook with the curry which is normally recommended
3 Tbsp Thai curry paste
Paneer (it is fattier than tofu and tasted so much better in this curry)
5/6 Kafir lime leaves
4 Fresh Basil leaves
2 Tbsp Fish sauce
2 Tbsp Jaggery or sugar
2 cans of coconut milk (good amount)
2 Tbsp peanut oil
Salt to taste
Start with oil 2tbs(peanut oil recommended) but does not matter at all. Lightly fry the curry paste in it. Add ½ can coconut milk and kind of fry it along with the curry paste. Stir fry the chicken in it and let it cook with minimal water, kafir lime leaves and salt. When it is half cooked add your veggies, so that everything cooks at the same time. When all is cooked, add basil leaves, fish sauce, jaggery (trust me a good amount is required 2 tbsp, but add little at a time), and the rest of the coconut milk (or more depending on how much u like it, I love coconut milk). Now the main trick, taste and adjust the seasoning. Proportion of sugar, salt/fish sauce is critical. I normally have to taste it 8 times before I rest my spoon. And last but not the least you cud squeeze a lemon.
Enjoy with steamed rice!
