Notes
- This is a little smoother than a green curry. It seams to highlight the flavours of the vegetables better. Even my children will have this curry.
- You can make it spicier by adding an extra tablespoon of curry paste and some sliced red chillies.
- I like to serve this with steamed jasmine rice alongside a plate of Thai fishcakes.
