Healthy, Easy, Thai Green Curry With Fish Balls Recipe

I got home to this amazing, and beautiful, Thai green curry with fish balls one night this week and it was a welcome comfort after a long day. My wife made it, using her typical green curry recipe with bamboo shoots and stevia instead of palm sugar. It's surprisingly good, like the fake crab we eat a lot. It's a really easy recipe with all the soothing, flavors of green curry and the ease of pre-made fish balls as a different protein to change things up.

Fish Balls

Making homemade fish balls and curry paste. You can do it the easy way with premade ingredients, or you can make your own fish balls with a recipe such as this. We will come up with a healthier version of homemade fish balls. In the meantime, use your imagination. Use google too, just make sure you read the ingredients and nutritional label if you buy premade. Some are healthy, some, not so much. I found these with a quick google search, but Mod usually gets them from our local Asian grocery store.

Green Curry Paste

You can also make your own green curry paste. We honestly like premade fine but we do have a recipe for that if you want to spend the time. It is better and healthier. It just takes time.
