A recipe base I stole and adjusted to my liking from my Aunt.
Ingredients
- 500 g chicken breast fillet
- 1 shallots finely chopped
- 3 bunch baby bok choy roughly chopped whole
- 400 g light coconut milk
- 1 bunch coriander roughly chopped small
- 2 kaffir lime leaf small
- 1 1/2 tbs green Thai curry paste *to taste
- 2 garlic clove finely chopped
- 1 1/2 tsp ginger minced
- 1 long red chilli sliced
- 1 cup chicken stock (liquid)
- 1 tbs peanut oil
Method
-
Step 1Heat oil in a non-stick pot. Add shallots and salt and pepper, and fry until onions are translucent.
-
Step 2Add the garlic and cook until the onions start to brown around the edges.
-
Step 3Add the ginger and curry paste, and fry until fragrant.
-
Step 4Add the chicken and stir to combine with the onions and paste, then deglaze with the stock, and add the kaffir lime leaves.
-
Step 5Bring to a simmer and pour in most of the coconut milk. Bring to the boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes to thicken.
-
Step 6Add the bok choy and some of the coriander. Add remaining coconut milk if curry is too dark and cook until the bok choy is wilted and chicken is cooked.
-
Step 7Serve on a bed of rice garnished with finely sliced chilli and coriander.
Recipe Notes
I use Mae Ploy green curry paste. Chicken thigh can be used.
