    Default share your thai curry recipes!

    does anyone have any great thai curry recipes that they could share? we made this one tonight: http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/fo...n-Curry-103786 and despite tripling the curry paste and adding a chile from the garden, we still found it a bit bland. does anyone have any authentic recipes that are full of flavor?

    I don't have any recipes for that but for more flavor.

    Add lemongrass and Kaffir Lime Leaves

    Well imagine if instead of writing that letter to the editor, she just posts on a car forum for car enthusiasts. That's Kritafo.

    Thumbs up for Kaffir lime leaves.... soooo good.

    Some ginger would be good too.

    You could cut back on the coconut milk as well, it will really kill a lot of spice(although it makes the curry creamy). Also is Thai curry paste green or red? Not sure I usually find red is hotter than green.

    Green curry is more milder in taste/flavor than red is. Since you said you added more curry paste and it was still bland, focus more on aromatics.

    Try cooking the curry paste for a few mins in oil to develop some more caramel/darker notes.

    So does anyone have any actual recipes that they can share? There are comments about kaffir lime leaves, lemongrass, cutting back on the coconut milk, etc. etc., however without clear instructions (i.e. a recipe), those things don't really help an idiot like me. so does anyone have a recipe, so that someone who has no idea what they're doing can make some good, authentic curry?

    thanks!

    I use Mae Ploy green curry paste since it contains ingredients used in making a genuine curry paste. You can find it in a plastic tub at Superstore and T&T. I don't find it too salty and a little goes a long way.

    1 can coconut milk
    1 tsp oil
    2 tbsp thai curry paste (depending on how spicy you want it)
    2 Kaffir lime leaves (found in frozen section at T&T, you might be able to find them fresh)
    2 tbsp fish sauce
    1 tbsp sugar (if you can find palm sugar, use that instead)
    1 lb chicken, sliced thinly
    1 japanese eggplant or 1 medium zucchini, sliced thinly
    lots of rice!

    Fry the curry paste in the oil over med heat till fragrant. Add 1/2 can of the coconut milk and stir till the oil separates from the milk. It might take a little while and the mixture will darken. Add the rest of the coconut milk, lime leaves, fish sauce and sugar. Add the chicken and eggplant. Cover and let simmer for 20 min.
    Its fast to make and sooo tasty. Have lots of rice to eat the sauce with.

    I sometime fry some onion up in the oil with the paste to add a little more flavor. Green curry is my favorite but you can vary this with yellow or red curry paste as well. DO NOT cut out the lime leaves they are essential. If you can't find them, use lime zest instead.

    Now I'm craving curry.....

    Edit to my recipe. I checked the curry paste I have....it's actually Cock brand, not Mae Ploy but I've used Mae Ploy in the past and its good too.

    Thanks... made for dinner tonight. Yummy T&T did have fresh kaffir lime leaves, my husband bought a huge tub of them for $1.90... don't know what to do with all of them.

    I added way more veggies though... carrots, peppers, snow peas, cauliflower, mushrooms, eggplant, onions. Wish I could handle more heat as I would of like to of put more curry paste in for a more intense flavor but I am kind of wimpy. Is the yellow curry more mild?
