If you are a Thai food lover, you must try out this Thai Red Chicken Curry. Very simple to prepare and Thai paste gives it authentic taste.

Thai curry is an authentic Thai cuisine which is prepared with different types of curry pastes. Thai red curry or green Thai Curry get their name from the color of the curry paste used in preparing. Other then these two curries , there are other kinds of Thai curries too. like Jungle curry, Massamam, Panang Curry ,Thai Red Chicken Curry etc.

The main ingredient in this fast, delicious and versatile curry, is Coconut milk with chunks of veggies and chicken or fish, slow cooked over stove top. It is very aromatic, sweet and savory and goes well with steaming rice. You can totally skip chicken and increase the quantity of vegetables. You can add any vegetables like, carrots, spinach, mushrooms etc.

I made this with some rice noodles and enjoyed it. I found I needed to add salt and more curry to our liking,
Thanks for a nice base recipe – I will make it again with different vegetables and some crispy tofu!

    Hi pooja… any substitute for fish sauce? Or if don’t add it will it make any difference. As being a lockdown its not
    available easily

      Don’t worry about fish sauce. It still tastes great without it. 🙂

Wow! Have no words. This curry was absolutely amazing! I tried curry for the very first time about a week ago when my sister brought some back from a Thai restaurant. It was okay. But I definitely wanted to find one that had more depth and flavor. I am BEYOND happy I found this recipe! My husband and in-laws have never had curry before and absolutely LOVED this recipe! So so yummy! Will definitely be checking out more recipes! (:
