This is a great recipe which has saved me so many times when I’m short on time and energy. The paste makes enough for several servings of curry and freezes really well. I love prawns in a curry and they work particularly well with this aromatic, nutty, slightly spicy sauce, however this recipe is delicious with chicken too.

There is nothing like a fresh and aromatic homemade Thai green curry. Served with some crispy panfried seabass and a zingy, crunchy, peanutty slaw, this feels slightly more special than your standard midweek thai green curry out of a jar. Although I love a thai green curry with prawns, chicken or veg, the lovely fresh, clean taste of the sea bass goes so well with the rich, coconutty sauce.

This is a fresh and zingy salad that is a great way to satisfy your beef cravings and still enjoy a light meal. Salty, sour, sharp, and nutty, this would make a lovely dinner party starter in small quantities or it would also be great on the bbq in the summer. It’s also very quick to prepare on a midweek night and works really well as leftovers (that’s if there is any).
