So, since I got a new job and I know there is more then just enough money to pay my bills coming in at the end of the month I decided to dip into the old bank account and do a MASSIVE Tesco shop. Yeah, thats right, massive.
Last night I made the most delicious meal I have made in a long time, Thai Green Curry. This recipe is probably enough for 2 but I ended up eating most of it. I just couldn't help myself.
You will need;
For the sauce
2 Cloves of Garlic
1 teaspoon of Ginger
1/2 teaspoon of Coriander
2 big teaspoons of Thai Green Curry Paste
1 100g packet of Coconut milk (I use the packets you melt down into the paste)
A good splash of Light Soy Sauce
A good splash of Lime Juice (add lime zest if you have fresh limes)
Chili Flakes to taste
200ml (rough) of water (or if you are feeling indulgent use single cream)
Vegetables
3 Spring Onions
1/2 Red Onion
1 Large Carrot
1 Large Corgette
1 Large Red Pepper
Cashew Nuts
*If you want meat in it, I would suggest halving the veg listed and adding chicken.
Ok, so first cut up the onions and in a wok fry them and the garlic in some oil. While this is frying on a low heat cut the rest of the veg and add that to the wok and stir fry until almost done. Once veg is almost done add all the spices listed above and let fry for a minute or so. Then, add the Thai paste, Coconut milk, Light Soy Sauce, Lime Juice and stir all together. Once this is all coking away nicely gradually add your water or cream. You can chose the consistency you want, I made this sauce quite thick last night but if you want it runnier then just add more water to the mix.
I think everyone should make this, It is actually SO incredibly delicious. Just add it to rice or noodles and you are set.
I can't wait until the day I have money and can make some of these meals!
