Thai Red Curry
The Thai red curry was a great meal last night, and a better breakfast this morning. This is a warm, comforting dish that's perfect for cool weather.
Ingredients
- 1 x 400 ml can coconut milk
- 3 Tbs red curry paste
- 2 tsps grated palm sugar
- 1 Tbs Fish sauce
- 1 Tbs tamarind puree
- 1 cup chicken stock
