Method

1

Place curry paste, coriander, garlic, ginger, chillies, lemongrass, and the zest of 2 limes into a blender and blitz until smooth.

2

Cut the chicken into bite-sized strips and fry in a large pan for a few minutes until sealed. Remove from the pan & set aside.

3

Add the paste, along with 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil to the same pan and fry for a few minutes until fragrant. Now, add 3 tablespoons coconut cream from the top of the tin to the pan and cook for a few minutes to draw out the oil from the coconut cream.

4

Add the rest of the coconut milk and bubble for a few minutes then add the chicken back into the curry sauce. Simmer over a low heat for 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.

5

You can freeze at this point so allow curry to cool completely then portion it into freezer safe containers.

6

When needed, leave curry in the fridge overnight to defrost.

7

Once defrosted, reheat thoroughly and add some veg of your choice - I like to use baby corn and sugar snap peas for vibrancy.

8

Serve the curry with rice or noodles, along with some lime wedges, coriander and Thai basil.
