Simple green curry paste
It's Monday, you're tired from the start of another workweek, you're short on time, you need to get the kid(s) fed so you can put in some quality time before bed, but you still want something satisfying and delicious for dinner. What do you do? Well, you can start by whipping up this green curry paste. It's quick, it's tasty, and it has a little spinach thrown in, the addition of which simultaneously turbocharges the colour while sneaking in a little healthy goodness. Just mix it in a pan with some coconut milk, a spoonful or two of palm sugar, your protein of choice, and a little leafy veg, and you're done.
A little note about the below recipe...which isn't really a recipe as much as a guideline. Honestly, I didn't keep super-close track of the ingredients, so play with the quantities however you like and make the curry you want to eat. It'll still be delicious.

Put all the ingredients (except for the whites of the green onions which you can save for garnish, and half the lime juice which you can save for finishing) into a food processor or blender. Add a few glugs of veg oil and blitz well. You should end up with about a cup of something resembling runny, pureed pesto.

Use the paste as needed, such as in the salmon curry pictured. You can adjust the saltiness/sweetness/tanginess of the dish during cooking, by adding extra fish sauce/sugar/lime juice as needed.

Thai Green Curry Thai Green Curry
I make this every year, so I decided to make a recipe for it. I make this dish whenever I'm not feeling well or want more energy.If you can't find shrimp paste, add one teaspoon of fish sauce instead. This dish is spicy, so it is not recommended for children. Be careful not to let the curry boil for too long as the components of coconut milk will break apart and the oil will float to the top, which will compromise the flavor. Recipe by Nobutakun

I yearn for Thai green curry...But where on earth do they sell green curry paste?!They never have it in countryside supermarkets no matter how hard you look.Then why not make it?This is a recipe that I came up with through trial and error using ingredients that were readily available.The tofu milk easily separates if boiled, so heat gently while stirring with a spatula.I use green yuzu peppers and not red ones.Sequel: It seems to be better to use 6-sided green peppers as opposed to 5-sides ones as they are sweeter♡.

Authentic and Easy Thai Green Curry Authentic and Easy Thai Green Curry
My friend got this recipe from the mother of a Thai friend and I came up with my own easy way to make it.-I want to use just the 250 ml packet of coconut milk, so I add water to dilute. But if you aren't worried about calories, you can use 100% coconut milk without adding water.-Restaurants usually use straw mushrooms, but you can use any kind of mushrooms you have on hand.

I used to make curry using store bought curry paste. Boy, was that silly. Making homemade curry is not only easy, it's so much fresher and more delicious than anything you can buy premade.
