    • Chicken breast
    • Chinese eggplant
    • Thai basil
    • Light coconut milk
    • Fresh Thai Peppers
    • Thai, green curry paste.

    Substitutions

    If you know how to make the recipe fit a certain diet, let the reader know here. Don't fake it - only provide guidance on topics you have actual experience with.

    • Full-fat coconut milk. - if you're not worried about saturated fat and care more about flavor, go for the full-fat coconut milk.
    • Regular eggplant. - If you can't find Chinese eggplant, you can use bite-sized pieces of regular eggplant or Indian eggplant is good too.
    • Vegetarian - use tofu instead of chicken.

    Variations

    Giving the visitor ideas on how they can change this recipe to better suit their dinner guests or their cultural cuisine, is a great way to increase the chances they make the recipe

    • Spicy - add chili pepper flakes while cooking to imbue heat into the dish.
    • Deluxe - add in some brown sugar and bacon, and making your own homemade Thai green curry paste is an involved process but maximizes the freshness of the flavor.
    Homemade Thai Green Curry Paste Recipe
    • Kid friendly - add crushed potato chips, leave the peppers out.

    See this super green, green curry for a variation with loads of greens.

    Equipment

    Depending on the type of stove you have. You can use a skillet if it's electric or a wok over a flame to maximize surface area over the heat. If you're like my mother-in-law. You can use a wok on an electric stove and it works fine too, She prefers a wok when she visits us, it creates a vortex of heat and makes it easy to flip the ingredients, keeping them in the heat. Here is an affiliate link for a high-quality wok, if you don't have one already.

    Storage

    Store the ingredients in a covered container. Good for 2-3 days.

    These ingredients stand up well to freezing for X several months.

    Top tip

    If you have company, leave the Peppers on the side so people that are heat sensitive don't have to have them.

    Serve the Thai Green Curry with steamed Jasmine brown rice or cooked vermicelli rice noodles.
