For the curry:

  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 cup chicken breast, shrimp, or tofu (cut into bite-sized pieces)

  • Juice of 1/2 lime

To serve:

  • Extra Thai basil or chopped cilantro

🍽️ Instructions

1. Sauté the Curry Paste

  • Heat oil in a pan over medium heat.
  • Add green curry paste and sauté for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.

2. Add Coconut Milk

  • Pour in half of the coconut milk and stir until the curry paste dissolves.
  • Let it simmer until the mixture thickens slightly and becomes aromatic.

3. Add Protein & Veggies

  • Add your choice of protein (chicken, tofu, or shrimp) and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Add the remaining coconut milk, vegetables, kaffir lime leaves (if using), fish sauce, and sugar.
  • Simmer gently for 10–12 minutes until everything is cooked through and the sauce is slightly reduced.

4. Finish and Serve

  • Stir in Thai basil and lime juice just before serving.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning with more fish sauce, sugar, or lime if needed.
  • Serve hot with jasmine rice or noodles.

👩‍🍳 Tips & Variations

  • Make it vegan by using tofu and soy sauce instead of fish sauce.
  • For a spicier curry, add sliced green chilies or extra curry paste.
  • Add mushrooms, baby corn, or bamboo shoots for more texture.
  • Use lite coconut milk for a lighter version.
