Every great Thai red curry recipe starts with a luxurious paste made with red chillies, lemongrass, galangal, shallots, coriander roots, kaffir lime leaves and zest, fish sauce and shrimp or crab paste. Most grocery stores now carry both red and green curry paste, but if you want to make something fragrant and spectacular click on the link here to make your own. If you have a fish allergy, omit the fish sauce and shrimp/crab paste in your recipe and substitute it for light soya sauce and soya bean paste for that ‘umami’ flavour.

What fascinated me about the way the Thai people prepare their curry is that they cook the chicken by reducing some coconut milk down till the oil partially separates from the milk. Coconut oil is very trendy and healthy to use and you could use a bit of that in your recipe as well.
