Prawn thai green curry


Thai Green Curry is a coconut milk based Gravy infused with aromatic herbs and spices. This dish is so colorful, light and full of flavour. 

Traditionally shrimp paste and fish sauce are also added. But I have left out these two ingredients and instead added a Chicken Stock Cube. If you find it difficult to find all the ingredients for the curry paste, use ready made Thai Green Curry paste. Serve with steamed rice or rice noodles.


 INGREDIENTS

1/2 kg Medium Sized Prawns 

200 gms Button Mushroom (Cut In Half)

100 gms Broccoli Florets

1 Bok Choy

Handful Of Basil Leaves

3-4 Fresh Red Chillies, Sliced

200 ml Thin Coconut Milk (Second Extract)

250 ml Thick Coconut Milk (First Extract)

1 Chicken Stock Cube

1 tsp Sugar

Salt to Taste

3-4 tbs Oil 

For The Curry Paste

1 Thumb Sized Piece Of Galangal (Thai Ginger)

4-5 Lime Leaves

1 Bunch Corriander Leaves

1-2 Stalks Of Lemon Grass

1 Small Onion

5-6 Cloves Of Garlic

2-3 Green Chillies

Juice Of One Lime

1 tsp Cumin Seeds

1 tsp Corriander Seeds



METHOD

  • Peel and de-vein the Prawns. Leave the tails on
  •  prepare the lemon grass by cutting and discarding the leaves. Peel off the outer tough layer of the stalk. Use only the inner tender portion.
  • Chop it up and add to a mixer grinder along with all the ingredients for the curry paste.
  • Add 1/4th cup of water and grind to a smooth paste.

  • Dissolve the stock cube in the thin coconut milk and add to the fried curry paste.
  • Bring to a boil and add the sauteed vegetables and basil leaves.
  • Now add in the prawns and simmer till the Prawns have cooked.
  • Lower the flame and add the thick Coconut Milk.
  • Add the sugar and season with salt as required.
  • Add in the sliced red chillies and bok choy.
  • Give it a stir and turn off the flame.
