I made some Green Curry Chicken today. Together with some warm steamed rice, it's just the right fix for the cooler weather here in Vancouver these days. I used an authentic ready-made green curry paste imported from Thailand by my Asian grocer in Chinatown. Yummy!

Hmmm... Look so nice!
ReplyDeleteDid you used eggplants?
They are very similar to a solanacea from Brasil called jiló (Solanum gilo). They are bitter and green... I just luv jiló!
Thanks Juliana. Yes, I used Thai eggplants.
ReplyDeleteMind sharing what's the brand of green curry paste you used?
ReplyDeleteSorry, I can't remember the brand of the green curry paste. However, I do have a recipe for Thai Green Curry Paste; http://www.seasaltwithfood.com/2014/09/homemade-thai-green-curry-paste.html
