I love a Thai flavoured curry and so this is a favourite at home, its simple to create, no store-bought pastes and tastes amazing. This fragrant dish is a great addition to your repertoire, it has clean fresh flavours, great for hot or cold weather, and can be easily adapted to use ingredients you have on hand.
