This is absolutely delicious and was so quick and easy to make. Irresistible!
This is my most favourite Thai Green Curry recipe. I recommend it to all my customers as it is authentic, fresh and great for my daughter who is allergic to shellfish and cant' eat the bought curry paste. Once you've eaten this, you won't go back to bought paste.
I have adapted it by adding a whole coriander - root, stems and leaves to the other herbs when making the paste. You also need a generous handful of basil.
Use a large tin of good quality cocount cream (Ayam brand is best). You need to check that it hasn't been watered down - ie 100% coconut cream.
No need to add the extra water. I add lots of veggies and there's plenty of liquid from that.
I also omit the added sugar. The coconut cream is sweet enough. And for my family, i reduce the green chilis by half and remove the seeds. However, everytime i make it i add a little more so that my girls can get used to the hotter flavour.

Thai curry tends to be more watery than the Malaysian/Singapore curries. You can reduce water to 200gm . You can also increase coconut milk if you like a richer curry. I use big green chillies with seeds removed plus 3 to 4 green 'bird eye' or small chillies for spiciness. I hope you didn't use all 'bird eye' chillies. You can also use less chillies for a milder curry.
Hope this will help.

I tried this tonight. Lovely flavours, although I used half the amount of chillies and still found it very hot - for my liking. Mine was watery too. I also doubled the amount of vegies. Thanks for a tasty and very easy recipe.
This looks great! Cant wait to try it. Like that it has extra kick!
Hi Chrys - just made this curry (haven't served as it is for tomorrow night, thought to make it the night before to let the flavours develop) and it is really watery. Have I done something wrong or do I need to cook for longer - or add a thickening agent? Your response would be appreciated (it smells fantastic!)
