Green Is Mean
Thailand makes two of the world’s most famous curries. Red and green. The spicier dish is the latter and it’s something you should ready your taste buds for because it won’t take it easy on you. This is how you can make Green Thai Chicken Curry at home. What you’ll need for the broth; 400 ml of coconut milk, preferably full fat. You’ll also need some sesame seed or normal vegetable oil.

Peanut Wonder
This next dish hails from the great nation of Indonesia. It’s a rare curry that we don’t often see in Western countries, but it’s slowly gaining traction thanks to the sauce being sold in large wholesale retail stores. Follow full recipe here Satay chicken curry, is a peanut sauce that is sweet and nutty, with a hint of chilli. What you’ll need is unsalted but roasted peanuts, which have been finely chopped.
You’ll need some:
Classic bird’s eye chilli, garlic cloves, kepac manis (which is a kind of aromatic soy sauce), coconut milk and a little dark soy sauce. You can add lime to freshen up the sauce if you want. Gently fry your chicken until golden brown and add to the sauce. The peanut puree is going to thicken up the sauce really quickly so use a medium heat to cook the chicken in the curry sauce for about 15-20 minutes.
Spicy Sweet Potatoes
India and the surrounding counties have a rich culinary culture. But it’s not always curried that boast about the food, it’s the side dishes like this chaat recipe, follow full recipe here CubesNJuliennes.com. Gently fry some potatoes in oil, add a variety of spices like chilli flakes, green chilli and chaat masala.

Give Green A Chance
Green Thai curry is very spicy but has such a unique flavor, there’s nothing quite like it. If you would like something a bit less chilli, satay chicken is something you should try when you have the chance.
