Hi 👋 Today I made Thai style red curry
Using Five Tastes - Thai red curry paste product
and it's based on a Coles (big supermarket chain) recipe
Chop some capsicums and onions.
It's chicken thigh and is about 500g.
Chop to good bite sizes.
I'll leave the baby leaves in water and wash soon.
Stir fry the chicken until they get nice golden skin.
The cooktop's getting messier with oil as the chicken gets nicer and nicer😩
but let's forget about cleaning for now coz it looks so nice 🤤
Keep the chicken aside and cook the veggies.
This way you can get exact textures of the chicken and the veggies to your liking.
Once veggies are cooked, add about 150ml of coconut milk.
Then add about 100g of the red curry paste and mix well.
Simmer for a minute or two.
Turn off the gas and then add the baby spinach.
Usually Thai curry will look a bit more watery than this
but I prefer thicker curry 🙂
I actually had green curry many times but red curry is first time for me.
I just realised that I didn't use coriander even though I had some at the time.
It must be better with some coriander ☹️
Wow it's spicier than I thought 🌶
and mild spread of lemongrass smell and taste is awesome 🤩
To me, green curry is often a little bit too sweet and
I actually prefer this more than green curry because it's less sweet 😀
My little one's chicken is cooked in salt and pepper only with some tomato sauce.
He always want to see himself whenever he sees me taking some videos 😄
I like the crunchiness of the veggies that makes the dish more delicious
My wife has been suffering from hay fever since the day before
and she just fell asleep while waiting for dinner 😟
so we're trying our best to be quiet 🤫
(Little one) It's delicious
Mine's delicious too 🙂
(Little one) but isn't that spicy?
(Little one) you cannot eat spicy food
(Little one) You'll get sweat once you eat spicy food
😆😂🤣 yeah I get sweat when I eat spicy food
but this is not that spicy 😀
With a nice spicy kick and mild lemongrass taste,
I really enjoyed this red curry paste from Five Tastes 👍
Thanks, see you later 👋
