Do add 2cm of fresh galangal root while pureeing the spice paste for added authentic flavour. Three-quarter teaspoon of powdered galangal could replace it if fresh roots are not available.

Hi Kyri - glad you liked it - my kids are a bit young to apreciate a fine Green Curry, but the wife and I certainly love it! - Regards Kenny

Hi, great recipe! I added a touch of fish sauce, and like someone else said, I'd probably cut out one lime, but my whole family loved it (and so did I).
Thanks!

Hi Nichat - Ok sounds interesting. How do you know this? Have you got a full Thai Curry recipe you can put up to show me. Ill try your additions and see if it improves it - thanks.

Sorry the recipe tastes nice but not really authentic. I believe a recipe for Thai Green Curry must include palm sugar, Thai Aubergine/Pea Aubergine and Fish Sauce to taste.

Such a great recipe, absolutely loved it. With curries it is all about the paste and this has got it down to a t.

MMM, oh Kenny, thankyou! I've been looking for a good thai chicken recipe for ages, this looks amazing. You've clearly gone to a lot of trouble to add the individual ingredients (it annoys me when you simply get "curry powder" in there). Please have a look at my naga recipe, I am starting to grow my own nagas as they may be fiery but they have a very subtle floral overtone too. Will try them in this dish.

Hi Shal - most excellent! You clearly like your food a bit more spicy. Of course in Thailand the green curry tends to blow your head off. I find that the limes cool it all down a bit without loosing the chili kick. I see from your profile you like curry, chocolate, bread and cake. So come on give me one of your best recipes to try... please :-) - Regards Kenny

Hi Kenny - Just thought I would let you know that I did reduce the limes by one and upped the chillies a little - perfect!!! Thanks for sharing this fantastic recipe.
by Shal on Tue Aug 25 2009 reply to this comment
Hi Shal, glad you liked it. Yes, the limes can be very overpowering...these can certainly be altered to taste, it's just a question of getting the balance right. Regards Kenny.
by Kenny on Mon Aug 24 2009 reply to this comment
This is a wonderful recipe. I will cut the limes down by one next time though, as hubby thought the lime overpowered the other tastes. But very very tasty and easy. I am making it again tomorrow.

This is fantastic. It smells so nice when its cooking. Remember to take the seeds out the chillies :)
